concurrent programming, synchronization, shared and transactional memory
multiprocessor and multi-core architectures and algorithms
fault tolerance, reliability, availability
self-stabilizing, self-organizing, and autonomic systems
communication networks: protocols, architectures, services, applications
sensor, mobile, ad-hoc, peer-to-peer networks
cryptographic and security protocols and system security
semantics, models, verification, debugging, and tool support
Internet applications, social networks, recommendation systems
distributed operating systems, databases and programming languages
game-theoretic approaches to distributed computing
cluster, cloud and grid computing
