Call for Papers
Algorithms and Data Structures for the Internet
Special Track for the
Twenty-third Annual ACM SIGACT-SIGOPS Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC 2004) (http://www.podc.org/podc2004/special-track-cfp.html)
The Internet is the modern platform for distributed computing. PODC has historically focused more on a higher level, abstracting away the platform on which the computation takes place. But PODC was covering and contributing algorithms for distributing computing before the Internet platform arrived. The special track on Internet Algorithms will attempt to expand the focus and the community, and bring modern trends on Internet research closer to the PODC community, seeding future areas of research for the years to come.
We are soliciting research contributions on the design, specification, and implementation of algorithms for current and future Internet applications. Both theoretical work and practical work that demonstrates fundamental principles of distributed computing in this setting are desired.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to,
+ Peer-to-peer, overlay, and content distribution networks
+ Analysis of small world networks
+ Algorithmic mechanism design for distributed systems
+ Distributed caching protocols
+ GRID computing
+ Multicast protocols
+ Network coding
+ Compression and coding in distributed systems
+ Models of fault-tolerance and reliability for Internet networks
+ Search engines and the Web: crawling and indexing
+ Data stream algorithms for distributed systems: stream algorithms for network monitoring, handling network traffic, and manipulating network-generated data.
The special track is an integral part of PODC. The papers for the special track are to be submitted to PODC, as described in the PODC call for papers. The PODC program committee reflects expertise in the subjects of the special track, as well as in other PODC subjects. For the dates, formats, submission instructions, etc., please see the PODC call for papers (http://www.podc.org/podc2004/cfp.html).
