(mirror site: http://www.p2p-im.org)
29 May, 2006, Hong Kong
in conjunction with
The 1st Int. Conf. on Scalable Information Systems (INFOSCALE '06)
**********************************************************************
Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems have emerged as an active research field that
combines principles from networking, database, distributed computing, and
information retrieval. Different from traditional client-server model, a
host node in a P2P system can act as both a server and a client, which has
significantly changed the way of online information sharing and distribution.
P2P techniques bear the potential to realize information systems that scale
to voluminous information on very large numbers of participating nodes,
while facing many fundamental research challenges for information management.
This workshop intends to bring together researchers and practitioners working
on P2P information systems from different disciplines. We invite papers that
facilitate better understanding of challenges of P2P information management,
apply ideas and techniques from different aspects, and propose innovative
solutions to those challenges. Topics of interest include, but are not limited
to:
* P2P Applications and Services
* P2P Information Systems and Architectures
* Models and Query Languages for P2P Information Systems
* P2P Information Search Techniques
* Indexing, Caching and Replication Techniques for P2P Systems
* Metadata for P2P Information Management
* P2P Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery
* Adaptive P2P Information Systems
* Mobile P2P Information Retrieval
* P2P Multimedia Information Management
* P2P Content Delivery
* Security and Robustness in P2P Information Systems

PURPOSE / HISTORY:
GCA'06 is an international conference held simultaneously
(ie, same location and dates) with a number of other
joint conferences as part of WORLDCOMP'06 (The 2006 World
Congress in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and
Applied Computing). WORLDCOMP'06 is the largest annual
gathering of researchers in computer science, computer
engineering and applied computing. Each of the joint
conferences in WORLDCOMP is the premier conference for
presentation of advances in their respective fields.
WORLDCOMP'06 is composed of the following international
conferences: Parallel & Distributed Processing Techniques &
Applications; Scientific Computing; Grid Computing &
Applications; Security & Management; Artificial Intelligence;
Machine Learning; Software Engineering Research & Practice;
Programming Languages & Compilers; Internet Computing; Semantic
Web & Web Services; Computer Design; Real-Time Computing
Systems & Applications; Embedded Systems & Applications; Wireless
Networks; Pervasive Systems & Computing; Image Processing,
Computer Vision, & Pattern Recognition; Computer Graphics &
Virtual Reality; Modeling, Simulation & Visualization Methods;
Computer Games Development; Frontiers in Education in Computer
Science & Engineering; Foundations of Computer Science;
e-Learning, e-Business, Enterprise Information Systems,
e-Government, & Outsourcing; Data Mining; Information &
Knowledge Engineering; Bioinformatics & Computational Biology;
Computing in Nanotechnology; Engineering of Reconfigurable
Systems & Algorithms; Communications in Computing.
The motivation is to assemble a spectrum of affiliated
research conferences into a coordinated research meeting
held in a common place at a common time. The main goal
is to provide a forum for exchange of ideas in a number
of research areas that interact. The model used to form
these annual conferences facilitates communication among
researchers in different fields of computer science,
computer engineering and applied computing. Both inward
research (core areas of computer science and engineering)
and outward research (multi-disciplinary, Inter-disciplinary,
and applications) will be covered during the conferences.
PROPOSAL FOR ORGANIZING TECHNICAL SESSIONS:
Each technical session will have at least 6 paper
presentations (from different authors). The session
chairs will be responsible for all aspects of their
sessions; including, soliciting papers, reviewing,
selecting, ... The names of session chairs will appear
as Associate Editors in the conference proceedings and
on the cover of the books.
Proposals to organize technical sessions should include
the following information: name and address (+ E-mail)
of proposer, title of session, a 100-word description of
the topic of the session, the name of the conference the
session is submitted for consideration, and a short
description on how the session will be advertised (in
most cases, session proposers solicit papers from
colleagues and researchers whose work is known to the
session proposer). Mail your proposal to H. R. Arabnia
(address is given above); E-mail submissions are preferred.
We would like to receive the proposals by December 29, 2005.

formats are preferable (Fax or postal submissions are also
fine.) All reasonable typesetting formats are acceptable
(later, the authors of accepted papers will be asked to
follow a particular typesetting format to prepare their
papers for publication.)
The length of the Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will
be limited to 7 (IEEE style) pages. Papers must not have
been previously published or currently submitted for
publication elsewhere. The first page of the draft paper
should include: title of the paper, name, affiliation,
postal address, E-mail address, telephone number, &
