P2P 2006 - Paper submission deadline
The Scope
P2P2006 is the sixth in a series of annual conferences concerned with overlay network technologies. Overlay networks combine and share the resources owned by devices that are distributed around the Internet, which are normally relegated to the role of clients. Examples of such technologies include Peer-to-Peer Systems and Grids, but in general, any large-scale distributed system characterized by decentralization and sharing of resources can benefit from an overlay-based approach.
The focus of this year's conference is on applications. We invite papers that reflect experience with practical applications of the current state of the art, or that explore new application areas. We are interested in real, large-scale, deployed applications particularly, rather than "toy" examples composed of few nodes. The key issues to be considered are scalability, robustness, and security; we believe that these aspects are fundamental issues that must be solved before (legal) peer-to-peer and grid services will become mainstream.
Consistent with the previous occurrences of this conference, we promote a collaboration in research between academic institutions, government organizations, and business enterprises that are concerned with the research and implementation of peer-to-peer networks, grids, and large scale distributed systems
Topics
Any topic that relates to peer-to-peer systems, grids, and large-scale
distributed systems or overlay networks is open for consideration.
We would like to give special encouragement to reports of experience
with applications, with particular emphasis to those that treat
problems
related to scalability, robustness and security:
| P2P Applications and Services • P2P Storage and Content Distribution • P2P Databases and Warehouses Security in P2P Systems • Authentication • Authorization • Key Management Performance and robustness of P2P Systems • Replication • Result certification, quizzes Object Discovery and Information Retrieval in P2P Systems • Range queries and approximate queries • Hybrid P2P Systems Self-organization and Stability of P2P Systems • Overlay performance in unstable states • Generalized types of churn |
Trust Management in P2P Systems

Papers will undergo a thorough peer review process before acceptance for presentation. We include all presented papers in the proceedings. The IEEE Proceedings hardcopy will be available at the Conference.
