The Scope

P2P2005 is the fifth 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

 

Papers undergo a throghough peer-review process before acceptance for presentation. We include all presented papers in the proceedings. The IEEE Proceedings hardcopy will be available at the Conference.
