ICDCN 2011 - Call For Papers

12th International
Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking


2-5 January 2011, Bangalore, India

Conference Website (mirror): http://icdcn.iitkgp.ac.in

SCOPE

Technical papers describing original, previously
unpublished results are solicited in all areas of theory and practice of distributed
systems and networking. As in the past, ICDCN 2011 will be organized in two
tracks:

Distributed Computing and Networking. Topics of interest
include but are not limited to the following:

- Distributed algorithms and concurrent data structures:
design, analysis,complexity
- Distributed operating systems, middleware, database
systems
- Embedded distributed systems
- Experiments and measurements of distributed systems
- Fault-tolerance, reliability, availability,
self-organization
- Self-stabilization, autonomic computing
- High performance computing, grid computing, cloud
computing
- Integration of heterogeneous wireless and wired
networks
- Internetworking protocols and internet applications
- Mobile and pervasive computing, context-aware distributed
systems
- Multiprocessor and multi-core architectures and
algorithms
- Network reliability, security and privacy
- Next generation network architectures
- Overlay and peer-to-peer networks
- Performance modeling and evaluation
- Resource management and quality of service
- Security in distributed systems, cryptographic
protocols
- Sensor networks, ad-hoc networks, and mesh networks
- Shared and transactional memory, synchronization
protocols, concurrent programming
- Specification, debugging, semantics, verification,
testing of distributed systems
- Traffic engineering, pricing, network management
- Wireless networks: cellular networks, and wireless LANs

SUBMISSION AND LOGISTICS

A submission should report on original, previously
unpublished research that is not being concurrently considered elsewhere for
publication in a journal or conference. A submission consists of up to ten
single-spaced pages using at least 11-point Times Roman font and one-inch
margins on all sides on A4 or letter sized pages. The page limit includes title
page, references, figures, and tables. Extra material, such as additional
experiments, proofs, and graphs, can be included in a clearly-marked appendix,
which will be read at the discretion of the program committee. Submissions
deviating from these guidelines will not be reviewed. Submissions must be
entered electronically according to instructions on the conference website.
Accepted submissions will be published by Springer in the LNCS series (pending
approval).

Submissions may be accepted either as regular papers or
short papers.

Authors may request that their submission be considered
only as a regular paper. At least one author of each accepted paper must
register for the conference and present the paper.

Extended versions of selected papers from ICDCN 2011 will
be considered for publication in the Operating Systems Review journal, in the
Pervasive and Mobile Computing journal, and in the Theory of Computer Science
journal, as appropriate.

BEST PAPER AWARD

Every paper is eligible for a Best Paper Award. The
Program Committee may decline to make the award or may split it.
