ICDCN 2014 - 2014 International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking

The International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking (ICDCN) is a premier international conference dedicated to addressing advances in Distributed Computing and Communication Networks. Over the years, ICDCN has grown into a leading forum for disseminating the latest research results in these fields. As in the past, ICDCN 2014 will be organized in two tracks: Distributed Computing and Networking, and will comprise a highly selective technical program consisting of refereed concise papers, panel discussions as well as focused workshops on emerging topics. Papers describing original research work and practical experiences/experimental results are solicited on topics including, but not limited to:
I. Distributed Computing Track
Distributed algorithms : design, analysis, and complexity
Concurrent data structures
Concurrent, Synchronization, and transactional memory
Distributed operating systems and distributed database systems
