The International Symposium on DIStributed Computing, is an international forum on the theory, design, analysis, implementation and application of distributed systems and networks. DISC is organized in cooperation with the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS).

All accepted papers will be published in the Lecture Note in Computer Science (LNCS) series of Springer.

Extended and revised versions of selected papers will be considered for a special issue of the Distributed Computing journal.

Original contributions to theory, design, modeling, analysis, implementation, or application of distributed systems and networks are solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Distributed algorithms; correctness and complexity
• Concurrency, synchronization, and transactional memory
• Distributed operating systems, middleware, database systems
• Self-stabilizing, self-organizing, and autonomic systems
• Wireless, mobile, sensor and ad-hoc networks
• Fault tolerance, reliability, availability
• Game-theoretic approaches to distributed computing
• Specification, verification, and testing: tools, methodologies
• Networks: protocols, architectures, services, applications
• Multiprocessor and multicore architectures and algorithms
• Security in distributed computing, cryptographic protocols
• Distributed computing issues in the Internet and the Web
