Call for Papers
17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems
(ICDCS '97)
DEADLINE EXTENSION FOR PAPER SUBMISSION TO OCTOBER 7, 1996

Baltimore, Maryland, USA

Stouffer Hotel

May 27 - 30, 1997

----------

The purpose of this conference is to bring together developers and researchers from universities, industry and government to advance the science and technology in distributed computing. The technical areas of the conference include:

Distributed Systems Architecture
Distributed Operating Systems
Distributed Databases and Information Systems
Communication Protocols
Mobile Computing
Distributed Multimedia
Distributed Real-Time Systems
Distributed Algorithms
Languages, Tools and Software Engineering
Distributed Resource Management and Scheduling
Fault Tolerance, Availability and Security
Performance of Distributed Systems
New Applications

Papers in these areas are sought. Of particular interest are papers on novel applications, such as digital libraries, multi-media information servers, and virtual-reality systems, that are made possible by ultra high-performance and high-capacity networks and distributed systems. In addition to research papers, case-study reports detailing experiments and evaluations of, and open problems in, the specification, design, development and validation of advanced distributed computing and communication systems are also sought.
