Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking (ICDCN 2025) will be
held at IIT Hyderabad, India, from 4th – 7th January 2025.
The Organizing Committee invites proposals for one-day or half-day
workshops affiliated with the conference. Workshops should emphasize
current topics of interest within the broader areas of Distributed
Computing and Communication Networks. Some of the topics of interest are
mentioned below, but not limited to:
- 5G and Beyond
- Ad-hoc, Sensor, PAN and Mesh Networks
- Backscatter and Ultra-low Power Networks
- Biological Distributed Algorithms
- Blockchains
- Cloud Computing and Big Data Processing
- Cognitive Networking
- Disaster response
- Distributed AI/ML
- Distributed Data-Analytics
- Distributed game theory
- Energy and Sustainability
- Edge, Fog Computing and Mobile Offloading
- Fault-tolerance, Reliability, and Availability of Distributed Systems
- Federated Learning
- Graph Theory and Applications to Networks and Distributed Computing
- Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical systems
- Mobile Crowdsensing and Social Network Analysis and Mining
- Next-generation internet
- Pervasive and Mobile Computing
- Peer-to-Peer Networks - Architectures and Algorithms
- Security, Privacy and Game Theory in Distributed Computing and Networking
- Smart City Applications
-
- Self-* (Self-organization, Self-stabilization, Self-healing etc) and
Autonomic Computing
-
- Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
- Vehicular Networks
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, subject to pending ACM approval. Workshop
organisers should follow ACM Peer Review Policy (
https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/peer-review) while accepting
papers.
Format of the Proposal:
Each workshop proposal (maximum 5 pages) must include:
- Title of the workshop
- Description of the technical issues covered, emphasizing the timeliness
of the proposed workshop (1-page maximum)
- Workshop Organizers (names, affiliation and contact information),
limiting up to 2 workshop chairs for a half-day workshop and 3 workshop
chairs for a full-day workshop
- A short biography of the organizers (up to 200 words)
-Names of potential participants, such as program committee members and
invited speakers (an indication that speakers accepted to participate is a
plus)
- Planned format of the workshop, including:
+ Duration of the workshop: Half-day, Full-day and tentative schedule
+ Preferred day of the workshop: Before or after the conference
+ Number of refereed papers, hot topic sessions, keynotes, panels
+ Unique, creative and novel workshops formats are strongly encouraged
- Draft Call for Papers
- A description of the publicity and promotion plan
- Workshop potential website address (if available at the time of the
proposal - will be required later if the workshop proposal is accepted)
- If appropriate, a description of past versions of the workshop, including
the number of submitted and accepted papers, number of attendees, etc.
In order to ensure the quality of the accepted papers in ICDCN, the ICDCN
steering committee set an upper limit of 40% on the acceptance rate for
ICDCN Workshop papers. Hence, it is desirable for the organizers of the
accepted workshops to adhere to that acceptance rate for their respective
workshops. Also workshop organisers are not encouraged to submit papers in
their own workshop.
Timelines for the Workshop:
The proposals should be submitted (in PDF format) no later than July 10, 202
4, to the ICDCN 2024 Workshop chairs with "ICDCN 2025 Workshop Proposal" in
the subject.
- Proposal Deadline: July 10th, 2024
- Notification of Selection: July 15th, 2024
- Opening of Workshop Papers for Acceptance: July 23rd, 2024
- Deadline for Workshop Papers: September 15th, 2024
- Decision on Acceptance/Rejection of the Workshop Papers: October 6th, 2024
(hard deadline)
- Camera-Ready Papers Version Due: October 20th, 2024 (hard deadline)
