The objective of the 2019 IEEE International Conference on Decentralized Applications and Infrastructures (DAPPCON 2019)* is to facilitate the exchange between researchers and practitioners in the area of Decentralized Applications based on Distributed Ledger Technologies, Blockchain, and related technologies.
It can be already seen today that Blockchain is making a huge impact on the way digital payments are made. However, the potential implications of Blockchain technologies go far beyond their application as the technological backbone for cryptocurrencies. In recent years, Decentralized Applications (dApps) have emerged as a new model for building massively scalable services.
DAPPCON 2019 will provide a high-quality forum for participants from research and industry. The conference will discuss key theories, algorithms, infrastructures, and significant applications for Decentralized Applications and Infrastructures, as well as emerging research topics.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Blockchain theory
- Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT)
- Decentralized Applications / Smart Contracts
- Consensus protocols for Decentralized Applications
- Infrastructures for Decentralized Applications
- Communication protocols and standards for Decentralized Applications
- Identity Management for Decentralized Applications
- Token economy
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain analytics
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain governance
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain interoperability
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain privacy
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain security
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain scalability and performance
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain policy/law
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain applications in areas such as Internet of Things, Logistics, or Health
- dApps/DLT/Blockchain emerging research topics

Paper submission
DAPPCON 2018 solicits research papers describing significant and innovative research contributions to the field of Decentralized Applications and Infrastructures.
Both full and short papers can be submitted. All papers must be written in English. Manuscripts must include a title, an abstract with 200-250 words, and a list of 4-6 keywords. Each full paper is limited to 10 pages, including tables, figures, and references. Each short paper is limited to 6 pages, including tables, figures and references.
All papers must be prepared in the IEEE double-column proceedings format. Please see: http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html
DAPPCON 2019 uses a double-blind review policy. Authors are required to remove their names, affiliation and other identifying information from the header of the manuscript. This also includes meta-data in the submitted document as well as acknowledgment sections. Papers that do not meet these anonymization requirements may be rejected without further review.
