******************************************************************************** Call for Papers ********************************************************************************

21st International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking (ICDCN 2020) Jan 4-7 2020 Kolkata, India www.icdcn.org https://www.icdcn2020.com/ ********************************************************************************

Abstract submission: 12th July 2019 Paper submission: 19th July 2019

Papers describing original research work and practical experiences/ experimental results are solicited on topics that tentatively include, but are not limited to:

Distributed Computing Track -Blockchain -Concurrent Data Structures -Distributed algorithms: design, analysis, and complexity -Distributed operating systems -Distributed database systems -Embedded distributed systems, sensors and mobile -Distributed Robots -Formal methods for distributed systems -Experimental evaluation of distributed systems -Fault-tolerance, reliability, and availability -Multiprocessor & multi-core architectures & algorithms -Self-organization, self-stabilization, & autonomic computing -High performance computing, grid computing -Multi-tire cloud computing and Big Data processing -Security, cryptography and Game theory in distributed systems -Internet-scale distributed systems

Networking Track -5G, ultra-dense networks, and next-gen networks and services -Ad-hoc, sensor, PAN and mesh networks -Backscatter and ultra-low power networks -Cognitive networking -Data center and cloud networking -Energy-efficient networking & integration with smart grids -Internetworking protocols & Internet applications -IoT connectivity and Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) -Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) -Mobile offloading -Mobile pervasive computing and networking -Network function virtualization and Software Defined Networking (SDN) -Network security & privacy -Next generation & converged network architectures -Overlay & peer-to-peer networks and services -Pricing and network economics

ICDCN 2020 is soliciting submissions as either regular or short papers. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper. Regular Papers should not exceed 10 pages double column including figures, tables, and references in standard ACM format. Additional details may be included in a clearly-marked appendix (containing all technical ideas and proofs necessary for an expert to fully verify the claims of the paper) that will be read at the discretion of the program committee. Short Papers should not exceed 5 pages double column including figures, tables, and references in standard ACM format. Some papers not accepted as regular papers may be accepted as short papers with 5 pages in the proceedings, while full papers will be allowed 10 pages.

Best Paper Award: The ICDCN TPC plans to award a Best Paper Award, independently for each of the two tracks. This award will be based on the paper's technical merit, the opinions of the reviewers and the presentation quality at the conference.
