This proceedings volume contains 56 papers that were presented at the June 2006 IEEE Workshop on Distributed Intelligent Systems. It is divided into three main sections: collective robotics and human/robot interaction; industry applications of distributed and agent-based systems; and knowledge systems for coalition operations. Papers from two special sessions dealing with role-based collaboration and autonomic and situation- aware communication services are also reproduced here. The volume lacks a subject index.
