| Title: | 8th International Web Content Caching and Distribution Workshop |
| Deadline: | 22-May-2003 |
| Webpage: | http://2003.iwcw.org/ |
| Conference: | 30 September - 2 October, 2003 in Beijing |
| Synopsis: |
| Since 1996, this workshop has served as the premiere forum for researchers and industry technologists to exchange research results and perspectives on future directions in Internet content caching and content delivery. This year we are especially interested in issues of massive scale: the impact of geography on caching and replication; the role of caching and data transfer in Internet-wide grid computing; global peer-to-peer file transfer and storage; and other topics consistent with the history of the workshop and the evolution of web caching and content delivery. |
| Title: | Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems & Applications |

| Title: | Fifth International Symposium on Distributed Objects and Applications |
| Deadline: | 15-Jun-2003 |
| Webpage: | http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf/doa/2003 |
| Conference: | November 3-7, 2003 |
| Synopsis: |
| Are you building applications using distributed-object technology? Are you doing research in distributed object-based systems? Are you using existing distributed-object systems? In other words: are you actively involved in distributed objects and applications (DOAs)? Consider contributing a practice report or a research paper to this innovative event to present, discuss and obtain feedback for your ideas among other practitioners and researchers active in the same area. |
| Title: | International Workshop on Large-Scale Group Communication |
| Deadline: | 30-Jun-2003 |
| Webpage: | http://ltiwww.epfl.ch/~pedone/workshop.html |
| Conference: | 10/05/2003 |
| Synopsis: |
| For more than a decade now, group communication has been an active research area providing basic mechanisms for the design of dependable distributed systems. Even though a lot of effort has been dedicated to developing efficient group communication principles and systems, it is widely accepted that to be deployed adequately in large-scale settings, some of the existing concepts should be revisited. This one-day workshop seeks contributions related to the design and implementation of group communication systems for large-scale applications and environments. |
| Title: | ACM Workshop on Rapid Malcode (WORM) |
| Deadline: | 01-Jul-2003 |
| Webpage: | http://pisa.ucsd.edu/worm03/ |
| Conference: | WORM/October 27th, 2003 |
| Synopsis: |
| In the last several years, Internet-wide infectious epidemics have emerged as one of the leading threats to information security and service availability. The vehicle for these outbreaks, malicious codes called "worms", leverage the combination of software monocultures and the uncontrolled Internet communication model to quickly compromise large numbers of hosts. The goal of this workshop is to bring together ideas, understanding and experience bearing on the worm problem from a wide range of communities including academia, industry and the government. We are soliciting original papers from researchers and practitioners alike. |
