Sixth International Workshop on

Hot Topics in Peer-to-Peer Systems (Hot-P2P 2009)

http://hotp2p.disi.unige.it

In conjunction with IPDPS 2009

Rome, Italy -- May 29, 2009

WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are decentralized, self-organizing distributed

systems that cooperate to exchange data. These systems have emerged as the

dominant consumers of residential Internet subscribers' bandwidth, and are

being increasingly used in many different application domains. In the last few

years, research on P2P systems has been quite intensive, and has produced

remarkable results in scalability, robustness, location, distributed storage,

and system measurements. Consequently, P2P systems continue to evolve,

differentiating today's state-of-the-art from earlier instantiations such as

Napster, KaZaA, Gnutella, and Morpheus.

The International Workshop on Hot Topics in Peer-to-Peer Systems (Hot-P2P)

aims to bring together researchers and practitioners, from both industry and

academia, in the fields of systems, networking, and theory, and to represent an

occasion to share latest research results and ideas on P2P systems, thereby

promoting research activities in this area.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* P2P applications and infrastructures

* Performance evaluation and workload characterization

* Trust and reputation in P2P systems

* Security and privacy in P2P systems

* Routing and fault-tolerance in P2P systems

* Resource discovery/management in P2P systems

* Network support for P2P systems

* Self-organization and self-management in P2P environments

IMPORTANT DATES

Submission deadline: Sunday, December 7th, 2008

Notification of acceptance/rejection: Sunday, January 18th, 2009

Camera ready version due: Sunday, February 15th, 2009 (same as IPDPS)

PAPER SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS

Full papers will be submitted electronically using the EDAS Conference

Management System. Papers should be up to 8 pages, using IEEE's two column

format and include the author's name, affiliation and contact details.

Detailed information on electronic submission are provided on the web site

of the workshop (http://www.disi.unige.it/hotp2p/).

Papers will be selected based on scientific rigor, originality, novelty, and

presentation quality. By submitting a paper to Hot-P2P, the authors guarantee

that their papers are not currently submitted or accepted for publication

elsewhere. Each paper will be reviewed by at least 3 anonymous referees

appointed by the Program Committee.

A condition of submission is that an author attends to give the presentation.

The IPDPS Proceedings, including all the workshop papers, will be published in

the IEEE Computer Society digital library. A CD containing full papers will be

given to the participants attending the conference and/or workshops, the

abstracts will be published on paper.
