********************************************************************************
ICDCN is a premier international conference dedicated to addressing
advances in Distributed Computing and Communication Networks, which over
the years, has become a leading forum for disseminating the latest
research results in these fields.
The 21st edition of this international conference will be organized in
Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India, from 4th - 7th January 2020.
The 21st International Conference on Distributed Computing and
Networking (ICDCN 2020) plans to host several workshops.
The Organizing Committee invites proposals for one-day or half-day
workshops affiliated with the conference. Workshops should emphasize
current topics of interest to the conference and the community which are
Distributed Computing and Communication Networks. Workshops should
emphasize current topics of interest within the broader areas of
Distributed Computing and Communication Networks.
Some of the topics of current interest are mentioned below, though
this list is by no means exhaustive:
• Distributed Data-Analytics
• Blockchains
• Distributed AI/ML
• Cyber-security
• Disaster response
• Smart healthcare
• Energy and Sustainability
• Cyber-Physical systems
• Distributed game theory
• Biological Distributed Algorithms
• Social Network Analysis and Mining
• 5G and beyond Networks
• Next generation internet
The workshops may include a mix of regular papers, invited presentations
and panels that encourage the participation of attendees in active
discussion.
The purpose of these workshops is to provide a platform for presenting
new ideas in a generally more focused area than the main conference.
The objective of these workshops is to enable stimulating discussions on
state-of-the-art, emerging, visionary, and perhaps controversial topics.
Workshops should be organized to promote such lively interaction.
Plans to promote interaction and discussion should be clearly addressed
in workshop proposals. It is expected that workshop papers will be
published along with the main conference papers as part of the ACM
International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS) and will be indexed
by the ACM Digital Library.
