Distributed Computing

TRAMA

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Symposium on Distributed Computing, DISC 2007, held in Lemesos, Cyprus, in September 2007. The 32 revised full papers, selected from 100 submissions, are presented together with abstracts of 3 invited papers and 9 brief announcements of ongoing works; all of them were carefully selected for inclusion in the book. The papers cover all current issues in distributed computing - theory, design, analysis, implementation, and application of distributed systems and networks - ranging from foundational and theoretical topics to algorithms and systems issues and to applications in various fields. This volume concludes with a section devoted to the 20th anniversary of the DISC conferences that took place during DISC 2006, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in September 2006.
