ICDCN (the International Conference on Distributed Computing and
Networking) is a premier international conference dedicated to
addressing advances in Distributed Computing and Communication
Networks. As in the past, ICDCN 2012 will be organized in two tracks:
Distributed Computing and Networking, and will comprise a highly
selective technical program consisting of refereed submitted papers,
panel discussions as well as focused workshops on emerging topics.

Papers describing original research work and practical
experiences/experimental results are solicited on topics including,
but not limited to:

DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING

* Distributed algorithms & concurrent data structures: design,
analysis, and complexity
* Distributed operating systems
* Distributed database systems
* Embedded distributed systems
* Experiments and performance evaluation of distributed systems
* Fault-tolerance, reliability, and availability
* Multiprocessor & multi-core architectures & algorithms
* Self-organization, self-stabilization, & autonomic computing
* High performance computing, grid computing, & cloud computing
* Security, cryptography, & game theory in distributed systems

NETWORKING

* Integration of heterogeneous wireless & wired networks
* Internetworking protocols & Internet applications
* Mobile and pervasive computing, context-aware distributed systems
* Next generation & converged network architectures
* Overlay & peer-to-peer networks and services
* Home Networking & Services
* Resource management & quality of service
* Network security & privacy
* Energy-Efficient Networking & Smart Grids
* Sensor, PAN & ad-hoc networks
* Traffic engineering, pricing, network management

ICDCN 2012 is soliciting submissions as either regular or short
(concise contribution) papers. Regular papers will be allowed a
maximum of 15 pages, while short papers will be permitted a maximum of
5 pages. All papers must use at least 10-point Times Roman font and
be formatted as per the "LNCS style"-links to templates for Latex and
MS-Word will be available from the Submissions Webpage at:
http://icdcn2012.comp.polyu.edu.hk/submissions.html

Accepted submissions will be published by Springer in the LNCS series.
At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the
conference and present the paper. Papers should be submitted via the
EasyChair submission management system at:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icdcn2012
