POLICY 2007 is the eighth in a successful series of workshops which, since 1999, 
						have brought together leading researchers and industry experts to discuss problems, 
						solutions and experiences in developing policy-based systems. 
						This year, the workshop will have a special focus on the Semantic Web, an area
						that provides promising technologies for policy-based management both for the Web
						and other distributed systems such as the pervasive environments, grid-computing
						and multi-agent systems. 
						Policy 2007 will bring together researchers of both the semantic web and policy in an 
						attempt to explore the utility of semantic web policy frameworks to various 
						applications.
