The second International Workshop on Collaborative Peer-to-Peer Information Systems, COPS06 was held in Manchester University as part of WETICE-2006. It was the second meeting devoted to the study of the emerging field of Cooperative Information Systems and P2P networks or Cooperative P2P-based Information Systems (COPS). The first edition has been focused on trust management and middleware. This tendency has been confirmed in this second edition, but other important areas have been received attention. Among these COPS for real time and multimedia applications. In addition the service oriented approach is emerging as a unifying approach to describe COPS systems in a more technical way.
