This book is the first to present the state of the art and provide technical focus on the latest advances in the foundations of blockchain systems. It is a collaborative work between specialists in cryptography, distributed systems, formal languages, and economics, and addresses hot topics in blockchains from a theoretical perspective: cryptographic primitives, consensus, formalization of blockchain properties, game theory applied to blockchains, and economical issues. This book reflects the expertise of the various authors, and is intended to benefit researchers, students, and engineers who seek an understanding of the theoretical foundations of blockchains.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the First International Workshop on Adaptive Resource Management and Scheduling for Cloud Computing, ARMS-CC 2014, held in Conjunction with ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing, PODC 2014, in Paris, France, in July 2014. The 14 revised full papers (including 2 invited talks) were carefully reviewed and selected from 29 submissions and cover topics such as scheduling methods and algorithms, services and applications, fundamental models for resource management in the cloud.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 15 International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2013, held in Osaka, Japan, in November 2013. The 23 regular papers and 12 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 68 submissions. The Symposium is organized in several tracks, reflecting topics to self-* properties. The tracks are self-stabilization, fault tolerance and dependability; formal methods and distributed systems; ad-hoc, sensors, mobile agents and robot networks and P2P, social, self-organizing, autonomic and opportunistic networks.

This book constitutes the revised selected papers of the 8th International Conference on Networked Systems, NETYS 2020, held in Marrakech, Morocco, in June 2020.* The 18 revised full papers and 4 short papers presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The papers cover all aspects related to the design and the development of these systems, including, but not restricted to, concurrent and distributed algorithms, parallel/concurrent/distributed programming, multi-core architectures, formal verification, distributed databases, cloud systems, networks, security, formal verification, etc. *The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 29th International Colloquium on Structural Information and Communication Complexity, SIROCCO 2022, held in Paderborn, Germany, in June 2022. The 16 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 30 submissions. SIROCCO is devoted to the study of the interplay between structural knowledge, communication, and computing in decentralized systems of multiple communicating entities. Special emphasis is given to innovative approaches leading to better understanding of the relationship between computing and communication.
Distributed Computing by Mobile Entities is concerned with the study of the computational and complexity issues arising in systems of decentralized computational entities operating in a spatial universe Encompassing and modeling a large variety of application environments and systems, from robotic swarms to networks of mobile sensors, from software mobile agents in communication networks to crawlers and viruses on the web, the theoretical research in this area intersects distributed computing with the fields of computational geometry (especially for continuous spaces), control theory, graph theory and combinatorics (especially for discrete spaces). The research focus is on determining what t...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems, OPODIS 2012, held in Rome, Italy, in December 2012. The 24 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 89 submissions. The conference is an international forum for the exchange of state-of-the-art knowledge on distributed computing and systems. Papers were sought soliciting original research contributions to the theory, specification, design and implementation of distributed systems.
