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.
