OPODIS 2014 Call for Papers
18th Int. Conf. on the Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS)
17?19 December 2014
Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy
http://opodis2014.dis.uniroma1.it/

OPODIS is an open forum for the exchange of state-of-the-art knowledge on distributed computing and distributed computer systems. All aspects of distributed systems are within the scope of OPODIS, including theory, specification, design, performance, and system building.


OPODIS is traditionally strong in the theoretical aspects of distributed systems; furthermore, OPODIS is expanding its coverage to include the overlap between theoretical solutions and practical implementations, as well as experimentation and quantitative assessments.


A quality OPODIS paper will typically consider a significant problem in distributed computing, study an original solution, and evaluate it by formal, analytical, simulation, or experimental means. Positive, negative, and reproduction results that advance the state of the art are equally welcome.


Topics covered by OPODIS include, but are not limited to, the following:

Cloud computing
Communication and synchronization protocols
Dependable computing: theory and practice
Distributed algorithms: shared memory and message passing
Distributed database systems
Distributed event processing
Distributed operating systems
Dynamic and time-varying networks
Embedded distributed systems
Fault-tolerance, reliability, availability
Grid and cluster computing
Large-scale systems
Mobile agents and autonomous robots
Peer-to-peer systems, overlay networks
Performance: availability, latency, throughput, balance, communication, energy, etc.
Programming languages, specification and verification applied to distributed systems
Security and privacy
Self-* solutions for distributed systems
Sensor networks
Social networks: modeling, analysis, and synthesis
Wireless and mobile computing
Submission and reviewing

The conference language is English. Submission is electronic, per the instructions at http://opodis2014.dis.uniroma1.it/submission.html. On the first page, include the title of the paper, author(s) names and affiliation, an abstract, email, and a list of keywords. Submissions shall conform strictly to the LNCS format (instructions at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html), and must not exceed 15 pages, including figures, tables and references. Additional details may be included in a clearly marked appendix, which will be read, or not, at the discretion of the reviewers.

The Program Co-Chairs reserve the right to refuse, out of hand, papers that are out of scope, that are of clearly inferior quality, or that violate the submission guidelines. The remaining papers will undergo a thorough reviewing process. Each paper will be peer-reviewed in depth by at least three Program Committee members. The Program Committee will select contributions to be presented at the conference and published in the proceedings according to the criteria of originality, clarity, and completeness.

Important dates

23 July 2014 Abstract registration
30 July 2014 Submission deadline (Firm deadline, no extensions)
2 October 2014 Acceptance notification
4 November 2014 Camera ready
17?19 December 2014 Conference

Publication

The proceedings volume will be published in the Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. It is required that each accepted paper be presented at the conference by one of its authors.

PhD Position in Operations Research at Maastricht University, Campus Venlo
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Operations Research Group at Maastricht University is seeking applications for a 3-year PhD position. The PhD project is in the area of logistics and is intended to investigate research problems for logistics providers in the logistics hotspot region of Venlo. These problems include network design problems, like hub location, cross chain control centers and (green) distribution logistics.
The OR group is part the department of Quantitative Economics of Maastricht University School of Business and Economics and currently has seven faculty members who conduct research in the areas of:
* Algorithmic Game Theory,
* Combinatorial Optimization,
* Logistics, and
* Scheduling.

Please see the website of the OR group for more details on its members and their research interests:
http://www.maastrichtuniversity.nl/web/Faculties/SBE/Theme/Departments/QuantitativeEconomics/Research/OperationsResearch.htm

We are looking for a researcher with a Master degree in the field of (applied) mathematics, computer science, operations research, industrial engineering or a related field. The PhD student should have excellent communication skills, both verbal and in writing. The candidate should be fluent in English. Moreover, programming skills are advantageous.

The appointment will be conform to the Collective Employment Agreement of the Dutch Universities with a salary starting from EUR 2083.

Please send expressions of interest or any questions to Stan van Hoesel (s.vanhoesel@maastrichtuniversity.nl), Marianne Peeters (m.peeters@maastrichtuniversity.nl), or Tjark Vredeveld (t.vredeveld@maastrichtuniversity.nl).
