--------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS

3rd International Conference on Distributed Computing & Internet Technology, 2006 (ICDCIT ¡¯06) (http://www.kiit.org/ICDCIT2006.htm) 20th ¨C 23rd December 2006, Bhubaneswar, India

Proceedings will be published by Springer Verlag ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The ICDCIT conference series since 2004 has established a prestigious international forum for exchanging ideas and results in the area of Distributed and Internet Computing and published proceedings as LNCS by Springer-Verlag. The last two years, ICDCIT attracted over 450+ submissions with the acceptance rate of 15-18%.

The fusion of three important technologies: wireless communication, distributed computing and the Internet have played a key role in connecting people across the globe for collaborative net-centric computing and sharing of information. This global integration has motivated researchers to experiment with the integration of applications running at geographically dispersed locations. The spin off of these developments have led to some interesting issues pertaining to distributed computing, web services, middleware, network and system security, data/software engineering. The research activities in these areas can be classified into three classes, namely, network centric, program centric and data centric. Net Centric is to focus on networking and quality of service issues. Program Centric is to deal with middle layer issues and the interaction between networking and software layers. Data Centric play a central role in enabling in the integration of information and applications running at geographically dispersed locations interacting with both Net and Program Centric layers. ICDCIT 2006 aims to provide a forum for interaction among the researchers and developers and with this objective, ICDCIT 2006 invites authors to contribute their original, unpublished results in the following areas but not limited to:

Network Centric Ad hoc and Sensor networks Scheduling and Power Control Resource Management Cross-Layer Optimization and Network Design- Algorithms and Analytical techniques Fault Tolerance and Network Survivability Network Security, Location management, Secure localization. Quality of Service Internet Protocols

Program Centric Middleware Web-based Computing and Services Grid Computing Distributed Algorithms E/M-commerce Mobile Agents Distributed Computing Security System Security

Data Centric Data Engineering Query Optimization Streamed Data Management Data Grid Access Control and Data Security Searching and Indexing Data Replication and Caching Unstructured and Semi-structured Data
