The Fourth IEEE International Conference on Peer-to-Peer Computing
Use of Computers at the Edge of Networks (P2P, Grid, Clusters)
25-27 August 2004, Zurich, Switzerland
Communications Systems and Information Security Groups, ETH Zurich
The Scope
P2P2004 is the fourth Conference in a continuation of annual
conferences concerned with the convergence of overlay network
technologies that empower the leaf-nodes. These technologies include
Peer-to-Peer, Grids, Clusters, and the Web Services that ride over
them. These overlay networks are converging toward a common set of
protocols due to their extensive implementations on the Internet and
other shared environments.
These new protocols render the overlay networks functionally
independent of the networks that they ride on. This has opened new
security issues. Not only must we be concerned with the security
within the overlay network, we must be concerned with the threats they
may spawn toward the networks they ride on.
Consistent with our previous conferences we promote a collaboration in
research between academic institutions, government organizations, and
business enterprises that are concerned with the research and
implementation of P2P, Grids, and Clusters.
Topics
Any topic that relates to Peer-to-Peer, Grids, and Clusters is open
for consideration. We would like to give special encouragement to
research papers on security technology and policy issues for these
overlay networks. Some of the suggested topics are:
Security in P2P Systems
Trust and Reputation
Accountability
Applications
Overlay System Monitoring
Agents
Overlay Super Computers
Middleware
Overlay Architectures
Network Management
Wireless
Protocols
Collaboration
Supernodes
Grids
Clusters
Object Location and Retrieval
Storage Systems
e-Commerce
We include all presented papers in the proceedings. The IEEE
Proceedings hardcopy will be available at the Conference.

P2P2004 Invitation for Tutorial Submissions
If you are interested in running a Tutorial on aspects of P2P
technologies, please send us your proposal with a short description of
the area you would like to talk about, and how long you would want
your tutorial to be. For this, please contact Nathalie Weiler.
