https://sites.google.com/site/dcc2014workshop/

co-located with ACM SIGCOMM 2014 in Chicago, USA, August 2014

DATES

Submissions due: 1 March 2014
Notification of acceptance: 15 April 2014
Camera-ready papers due: 15 May 2014

WORKSHOP GOAL

The DCC workshop is interdisciplinary and touches both distributed systems
and networking aspects
as well as cloud computing. We want to attract both industry relevant papers
as well as papers
from academic researchers working on the foundations of the distributed
cloud.

DCC 2014 accepts high-quality papers related to the distributed cloud which
fall into at least one of the following categories:

- Novel ideas on how to design and operate/manage the distributed cloud

- Foundations and principles of distributed cloud computing

- Optimization and algorithms

- Architectural models, prototype implementations and applications

- Virtualization technology and enablers (network virtualization,
software-defined networking)

- Experience with existing deployments and measurements (public, private,
hybrid, federated environments)

- Service and resource specification, languages, and formal verification

- Economics and pricing


SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION

Submissions are single-blind and should not exceed 6 pages in length (in ACM
format).
For an accepted paper, at least one author must attend the workshop.
