The First International Workshop on Mobility in Peer-to-peer Systems
(MPPS05)
in conjunction with
The 25th IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing
Systems (ICDCS 2005)
June 6-9, 2005
Columbus, Ohio, USA
Theme
Peer-to-peer (P2P) has emerged as a promising paradigm for developing
large-scale distributed systems. P2P systems are characterized as
being fully decentralized, self-organizing, and self-repairing. Early
P2P systems were designed with an Internet-like network infrastructure
in mind. As the emergence and prevalence of new wireless networking
techniques, such as wireless mesh networks, wireless LANs, and 3G
cellular networks, the need to move P2P paradigm into wireless
networking and to support mobile computing is increasing. How does a
P2P system encompass wired and heterogeneous wireless networks? How
does a P2P system exploit and aggregate the resources in such an
environment? How should a P2P system manage node mobility? How should
a mobile P2P system ensure security and privacy? These issues become
very challenging. The goal of the workshop is to examine the mobility
issues in P2P systems over heterogeneous wired/wireless networks.
Topics
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* P2P systems over wireless mesh and ad hoc networks
* mobile P2P applications and systems
* power-aware and energy-efficient mobile P2P systems
* topology-aware mobile P2P systems
* mobility and resource management in mobile P2P systems
* P2P systems for wireless grid
* security in mobile P2P systems
* trust and access control in mobile P2P systems
* anonymity and anti-censorship for mobile P2P systems
* modeling and analysis for mobile P2P systems
