IDCS2019: The 12th International Conference on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems

IDCS 2019


Data Mining & Analysis Databases & Information Systems



The 12th International Conference on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems is the perfect venue for an academic and the single track format participants to include academia, industry, and Ph.D. students to interact and socialize. Invited keynote speakers are opening the activities of each day.
TOPICS OF INTEREST: Distributed Computing, Cloud Computing, Mobile Computing, Edge Computing, Fog Computing, Internet Applications, Cyber-Physical Systems, Internet of Things, Big Data, and Transportation and Logistics.
Modern systems such as distributed systems, cloud computing, mobile computing, edge computing, fog computing, and cyber-physical systems are tending to complexity, elasticity, dependability, security. Especially when dealing with dynamic events or actions in their environments and/or Internet applications, we not only need to keep those systems running normally but also need them to self-adapt to many changes.
On the other hand, the development of the Internet is very high rapid, and the Internet has already entered the 5G era. The Internet as society infrastructure and the widespread use of mobile edge, wireless wearable devices or IoT sensors have laid the foundation for the emergence of innovative network applications, transportation, and logistics. Under the influence of these most advanced technologies, human production and life are gradually changing.
The academic and industrial worlds are constantly developing and innovating in areas such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and media stream processing. These technologies not only enrich and improve the quality of life of modern people but also in the process of integration in many fields. The huge amount of data processing and the integration of the digital world with the physical environment make humans to also set a constructive development in biological, agricultural, and policy.
This conference desires to look for inspiration in diverse areas (e.g. infrastructure & system design, software development, big data, control theory, artificial intelligence, IoT, self-adaptation, emerging models, paradigms, applications and technologies related to Internet-based distributed systems) to develop new ways to design and manage such complex and adaptive computation resources.
A special session of the conference is dedicated to Ph.D. students.
