on Distributed Processing System

Hotel Gyokusen, Tamatsukuri, Shimane, Japan
December 8 - 10, 2014

 The IPSJ Special Interest Group on Distributed Processing System
(SIG-ITS) offers a forum for active discussion concerning the following
research areas: distributed systems, communication networks, multimedia
communication, network protocols and so on. DPSWS has started since
1993 as a stay-over workshop to discuss such research topics more
deeply than SIG-DPS quarterly forums. The latest three DPSWS were held
at Towada, Aomori in 2011, Oku-Dogo, Ehime in 2012 and Kusatsu, Gumma
in 2013, respectively. Many researchers have joined the workshop and
have achieved results through the discussions there.
 We are pleased to announce DPSWS 2014 that is taking place at
Tamatsukuri, Shimane this year, and we would like to invite you to join
the workshop.

    be published. According to the review result, the committee will
    select the best paper and several outstanding papers and will give the
    paper award to each author. Moreover, the committee will nominate some
    sophisticated papers of them to be published in Journal of IPSJ (JIP)
    as a recommended paper by SIG-DPS.

    (2) Special session (Demonstration and Poster) papers
  • The workshop welcomes the introduction of a prototype system and a
    product, an experiment at the workshop, and so on. We recommend that
    the following works should be presented with a poster: the introduction
    of a work-in-progress research or a work that needs interactive
    discussion with participating researchers for a longer time than the
    oral presentation.
  • Submitted papers should be formatted as DPSWS format: A4 portrait and
    single-spaced two column style. Please refer to the following web page
    and download the LaTeX style files or the MS Word template file(to be prepared).
