Highlights of Algorithms - HALG 2016
June 6-8, 2016, Paris, France
http://highlightsofalgorithms.org/
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The Highlights of Algorithms conference is designed to be a forum for
presenting the highlights of recent developments in algorithms and for
discussing potential further advances in this area. The conference will
provide a broad picture of the latest research in algorithms through a
series of survey and invited talks, as well as possibility for all
researchers and students to present their recent results through a
series of short talks and poster presentations. Attending the Highlights
of Algorithms conference will also be an opportunity for networking and
meeting leading researchers in algorithms.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The registration for the Highlights of Algorithms conference is open.
To register, please visit the link at
http://highlightsofalgorithms.org/registration/. (early registration is
due April 30)
A preliminary program is available online at
http://highlightsofalgorithms.org/program/.
The program is packed with 28 invited talks and with even a larger
number of short contributions.
Those interested in attending the conference are advised to book
accommodation as early as possible (given the high hotel prices in Paris).

ACM PODC Workshop on Distributed Cloud Computing (DCC)
co-located with ACM PODC 2016
25 July, 2016
Chicago, Illinois, USA
Important Dates
Abstract Submission: 5 May 2016 (extended!)
Submission: 12 May 2016 (extended!)
Notification: 1 June 2016
Camera-ready: 20 June 2016
Workshop: 25 July 2016
Keynote Speaker

Synopsis
Most of the focus in public cloud computing technology over the last 10
years has been on deploying massive, centralized data centers with
thousands or hundreds of thousands of servers. The data centers are
typically replicated with a few instances on a continent wide scale in
semi-autonomous zones. This model has proven quite successful in
economically scaling cloud service, but it has some drawbacks. Failure of a
zone can lead to service dropout for tenants if the tenants do not
replicate their services across zones. Some applications may need finer
grained control over network latency than is provided by a connection to a
large centralized data center, or may benefit from being able to specify
location as a parameter in their deployment. Nontechnical issues, such as
the availability of real estate, power, and bandwidth for a large mega data
center, also enter into consideration.
Another model that may be useful in many cases is to have many micro or
even nano data centers, interconnected by medium to high bandwidth links,
and the ability to manage these data centers and interconnecting links as
if they were one larger data center. This distributed cloud model is
perhaps a better match for private enterprise clouds, which tend to be
smaller than the large, public mega data centers, and it also has
attractions for public clouds run by telco carriers which have facilities
in geographically diverse locations, with power, cooling, and bandwidth
already available. It is attractive for mobile operators as well, since it
provides a platform on which applications can be deployed and easily
managed that could benefit from locality and a tighter coupling to the
access network. Applications with latency constraints or with too much data
to backhaul to a large mega data center can benefit from distributed
processing. The two models are not mutually exclusive: for instance a
public cloud operator with many large data centers distributed
internationally could manage its network of data centers like a distributed
cloud. The distinguishing characteristic from federated clouds is that the
component data centers are more integrated, especially with respect to
authentication and authorization, so that the computation, storage, and
networking resources are as tightly managed as if they were in a single
large data center.
Goals
The International Workshop on Distributed Cloud Computing (DCC) is
interdisciplinary and touches both distributed systems as well as
networking and cloud computing. It is intended as a forum where people with
different backgrounds can learn from their respective fields and expertise.
We want to attract both industry relevant papers as well as papers from
academic researchers working on the foundations of the distributed cloud.
In particular, this year's edition of DCC will feature an applied session
in the afternoon, chaired by Rick McGeer.
Scope
DCC 2016 accepts high-quality papers related to the distributed cloud which
fall into at least one of the following categories:
- Foundations and principles of distributed cloud computing
- Optimization and algorithms
- Economics and pricing
- Experience with and performance evaluation of existing deployments and
measurements (public, private, hybrid, federated environments)
- Architectural models, prototype implementations and applications
- Virtualization technology and enablers (network virtualization,
software-defined networking)
- Service and resource specification, languages, and formal verification
Submission and Publication
Submissions are single-blind and should not exceed 6 pages in length (in
ACM format:http://www.sigmetrics.org/sig-alternate-per.cls).
Accepted papers will appear on ACM Digital Library. However, authors may
voluntarily also opt out from an official publication, and simply present
their work at the workshop.
For an accepted paper, at least one author must attend the workshop.
Workshop History
DCC 2013 was co-located with IEEE/ACM UCC 2013, DCC 2014 was co-located
with ACM SIGCOMM 2014, and DCC 2015 was co-located with ACM SIGMETRICS.

and begin with a cover page (not a cover letter) including: (1) title,
(2) authors' names and affiliations, (3) contact author's email address,
(4) a short abstract of the paper, (5) indication of whether this is a
regular paper or a brief announcement, and (6) indication of whether the
paper is eligible for the best student paper award.
A submission for a ***regular presentation*** must report on original
research that has not previously appeared, and has not been concurrently
submitted to a journal or conference with published proceedings. Any
overlap with a published or concurrently submitted paper must be clearly
indicated. A regular submission must not exceed 10 single-column pages

other conferences. Submissions not conforming to these rules and papers
outside of the scope of the conference will be rejected without
consideration. If requested by the authors on the cover page, a regular
submission that is not selected for a regular presentation can be
considered for the brief announcements track. Such a request will not
affect consideration of the paper for a regular presentation.
