Organized by Infosys Technologies, Bangalore, the 12th International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking (ICDCN 2011) will be held in Bangalore, India, during January 2-5, 2011. Over the years, ICDCN has become a leading forum for disseminating the latest research results in distributed computing and networking.
The conference will have a full day of several tutorials/workshops on January 2, followed by the main conference on January 3-5. The proceedings of ICDCN are usually published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) <http://www.springer.com/lncs> series. SCOPE Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished results are solicited in all areas of theory and practice of distributed systems and networking.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: 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 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.
