ICDCN 2013 - 14th International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking

14th International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking
Tata Institute of Fundamental Research,
Mumbai, India January 3-6, 2013
http://www.icdcn.org/

ICDCN is a premier international conferencededicated to addressing
advances in Distributed Computing and CommunicationNetworks.
Over the years, ICDCN has become a leading forum for disseminatingthe
latest research results in these fields. As in the past,
ICDCN 2013 will beorganized in two tracks: Distributed Computing and
Networking,and will comprise a highly selective technical
program consisting of refereedconcise papers, panel discussions as
well as focused workshops on emergingtopics. Papers describing
original research work and practicalexperiences/experimental results
are solicited on topics including, but notlimited to:

I. Distributed Computing Track
Distributed algorithms & concurrent data structures: design,
analysis, and complexity
Distributed operating systems
Distributed database systems
Embedded distributed systems
Experiments and performance evaluation of distributed systems
Fault-tolerance, reliability, and availability
Multiprocessor & multi-core architectures & algorithms
Self-organization, self-stabilization, & autonomic computing
High performance computing, grid computing, & cloud computing
Security, cryptography, & game theory in distributed systems

II. Networking Track
Integration ofheterogeneous wireless & wired networks
Internetworkingprotocols & Internet applications
Mobile andpervasive computing, context-aware distributed systems
Next generation& converged network architectures
Overlay &peer-to-peer networks and services
Home Networking& Services
Resource management& quality of service
Network security& privacy
Energy-EfficientNetworking & Smart Grids
Sensor, PAN &ad-hoc networks
Traffic engineering,pricing, network management

Submission Instructions:
Submitted papers must not exceed 15 LNCS pages. Thepage limit includes
title, abstract, figures and references. Additional detailsmay be
included in a clearly-marked appendix that will be read at
thediscretion of the program committee.
All papers must use at least 10-point Times Romanfont and be formatted
as per the “LNCS style”. Submissions deviating from theseguidelines
will not be reviewed. Accepted submissions will be published
bySpringer in the LNCS series. More details about LNCS formatting
styles areavailable at: LNCS-Web.
Some papers not accepted as regular papers maybeaccepted as "Concise
papers" with 5 LNCS pages in the proceedingswhile full papers will be
allowed 15 LNCS pages.
At least one author of each accepted paper mustregister for the
conference and present the paper. Papers should be submittedvia the
EasyChair submission management System
at:https://www.easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?conf=...
papers from the Distributed Computing Track will be published in
aspecial issue of Theoretical Computer Science (TCS). Selected papers
