Exploring networked softwares

Complex networks are everywhere. Typical examples include Internet, the World Wide Web, HTTP, and software networks. Over the last decade, networked software has gradually developed to be an emerging new research field in software engineering. This paper will briefly explore some recent important advances in networked software, including networked software systems, structures and behaviors of networked software, dynamic evolving of networked software, network supported cooperation, networked software interoperability, and so on. Some discussions and comments are also given in this paper.
