SIROCCO is devoted to the study of the interplay between structural knowledge, communication, and computing in decentralized systems of multiple communicating entities. Special emphasis is given to innovative approaches leading to better understanding of the relationship between computing and communication.
SIROCCO has a tradition of interesting and productive scientific meetings in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, attracting leading researchers in a variety of fields in which communication and knowledge play a significant role. SIROCCO 2017 will be held in the Porquerolles island, a beautiful location close to Marseille in the south of France.

The scope of the conference includes the topics: Distributed computing, communication networks, game theory, parallel computing, social networks, mobile computing (including autonomous robots), peer to peer systems, communication complexity, fault tolerance, graph algorithms, and randomized/probabilistic issues in networks.

The scientific program of SIROCCO 2017 will include 4 invited lectures and presentations of 21 contributed papers, including the best paper.
The talks will be held over 3 days, allowing enough time for scientific discussions and collaborations.
