Topics/Call fo Papers

Following five successful TADDS workshops ? at DISC 2009 in Elche, Spain; at DISC 2010 at Cambridge, Massachusetts; at DISC 2011 in Rome, Italy; at OPODIS 2012 in Rome, Italy; and at DISC 2013 in Jerusalem, Israel ? and the successful 1st International Workshop on Dynamicity (DYNAM 2011) co-located with OPODIS 2011 in Toulouse, France ? we are happy to announce the sixth TADDS Workshop to be held in July 2014 in Paris, France, co-located with PODC 2014.
TADDS 2014 has its focus on the dynamic aspects of distributed systems, encompassing systems in existence today and looking into the future development and deployment of dynamic distributed systems, with sound theoretical foundations in mind. Distributed systems are rapidly evolving, and the advent of new classes of applications and technologies, such as VANET, Airborne Networks, Social Networks, Smart Environments, P2P, broad area supercomputing, and distributed cloud services, is radically changing the way we think about them. Dynamic distributed systems have structures that are self-defined at any instant by entities that might autonomously decide to participate in the same distributed application. These systems are characterized by dynamic arrival and departure of participating entities and normally it may not be possible to assume anything about the universe of participants, their identities, capabilities, or reliability. Understanding the fundamentals of how to master this dynamic dimension is of primary importance to design of robust, dependable, and predictable distributed systems.
This workshop, held in conjunction with the Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC), is intended to both motivate further concerted study and analysis of dynamic distributed systems and to present current accomplishments in this area. The meeting will include a couple of invited presentations that will provide views of the main achievements in this area to date, and motivate research by reviewing key challenges and formulating new directions. Topics of interest cover all aspects of dynamic distributed systems, including, without being limited to:
Modeling dynamic systems
Suitable environment assumptions (e.g., churn, failure models,…)
Suitable platform assumptions (e.g., communication paradigm,…)
Assumptions about the initial knowledge of participants
Communication and Coordination Abstractions and Services for Dynamic Distributed Systems
Algorithms in, and structure of, dynamic systems
Computation paradigms and algorithmic patterns
Membership/participation in the computation
Algorithms: dependability, resilience
Algorithms for Unmanaged applications
Efficiency of dynamic systems
Measuring efficiency and scalability
Complexity measures for dynamic systems
Application domains for dynamic systems
Peer-to-peer
Sensor Networks
Mobile networks
Cloud computing federation
Internet supercomputing
Smart environments
Social Networks
Fault tolerance for dynamic systems
Self-stabilizing Algorithms
Self-* computation
