BITS Pilani, K K Birla Goa Campus <br>
Goa, India, January 4-7, 2015<br><a href="http://www.icdcn.org/" target="_blank">http://www.icdcn.org/</a></p><p>----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>ICDCN is a premier international conference dedicated to addressing<br>
advances in Distributed Computing and Communication Networks, which<br>over the years, has become a leading forum for disseminating the<br>latest research results in these fields. ICDCN 2015 will be hosted by<br>BITS Pilani K K Birla Goa Campus. ICDCN 2015 will be organized in two<br>
tracks: Distributed Computing and Networking, and will comprise a<br>highly selective technical program consisting of refereed concise<br>papers, panel discussions as well as focused workshops on emerging<br>topics. Papers describing original research work and practical<br>
experiences/experimental results are solicited on topics including,<br>but not limited to:<br>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</p><p>I. Distributed Computing Track</p><p>- Distributed algorithms & concurrent data structures: design, analysis, and complexity<br>
- Distributed operating systems<br>- Distributed database systems<br>- Embedded distributed systems<br>- Experiments and performance evaluation of distributed systems<br>- Fault-tolerance, reliability, and availability<br>
- Multiprocessor & multi-core architectures & algorithms<br>- Self-organization, self-stabilization, & autonomic computing<br>- High performance computing, grid computing, & cloud computing<br>- Security, cryptography, & game theory in distributed systems</p>
<p>II. Networking Track</p><p>- Integration of heterogeneous wireless & wired networks<br>- Internetworking protocols & Internet applications<br>- Mobile and pervasive computing, context-aware distributed systems<br>
