PODC continues to broaden the conference, and solicits papers on all areas of distributed systems. We encourage submissions dealing with any aspect of distributed computing, including theory and practice, systems, design, specification, verification, implementation, application, and properties of distributed systems.
The common goal is to shed light on the principles of distributed computing.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following subjects in distributed systems:
- Distributed algorithms, correctness, complexity, and applications
- Communication protocols
- Distributed computing issues in the Internet and the Web
- High-performance distributed computing and the computational grid
- Multiprocessor/cluster architectures, algorithms, practice
- Transport and application layer protocols, routing, scheduling,
resource allocation
- Algorithmic mechanism design
- Networking: architecture, design, control, services, and applications
- Mobile agents
- Specification, semantics, and verification
- Distributed middleware platforms, operating systems, and databases
- Cryptographic and security protocols, security of distributed systems
- Fault tolerance, availability, and self stabilization
- Mobile computing, ad hoc and sensor networks
- Shared memory
- Synchronization: hardware, software, algorithms, architecture, practice
- Distributed data management and search
- P2P computing, overlay networks
- Internet algorithms and data structures
- Location-aware distributed computing
