                   CALL FOR PAPERS
******************************************************

IEEE International Workshop on Internet and Distributed Computing 
Systems (IDCS'08)
In conjunction with
11th IEEE International Conference on Computer and Information 
Technology (ICCIT 2008)
December 25-27, 2008, Khulna, Bangladesh

In the recent years, the emergence of Web as a ubiquitous platform for 
innovations has laid the foundation for the rapid growth of the 
Internet. The use of mobile and wireless devices such as PDA, laptop, 
and cell phones for accessing the Internet has paved the ways for 
related technologies to flourish through recent developments. In 
addition, the popularity of sensor networks is promoting better 
integration of the digital world with physical environment. In this 
workshop we are interested in receiving innovative papers on emerging 
technologies related to Internet and distributed systems to support the 
effective design and efficient implementation of high-performance 
computer networks. The target audience includes researchers and industry 
practitioners those are interested in different aspects of the Internet 
and distributed systems, with a particular focus on the practical 
experiences with the design and implementation of related technologies 
as well as their theoretical perspectives.

*Areas of interest*
--------------------------
The areas of interest are the following (although this list should not 
be treated as exclusive):
* Advances in Internet architectures and protocols
* Autonomic computing
* Computational economy for distributed systems
* Content delivery networks
* Distributed database systems
* Experimental and measurement results from live networks
* Foundations, theory, modelling of Internet-based systems
* Grid computing
* Interconnection networks and collaborative systems
* Internet-based knowledge engineering
* Internet search technologies
