The Scope

P2P2003 is the third 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 other suggested topics are:

Overlay System Monitoring

Agents

Accountability

Applications

Overlay Super Computers

Middleware

Wireless

Protocols

Collaboration

Supernodes

Overlay Architectures

Network Management

e-Commerce

 


We include all presented papers in the proceedings. The IEEE Proceedings hardcopy will be available at the Conference.

A P2P2003 offer to participants in EU-funded research projects:

If you are participating in an international research project in Grid or P2P computing, and would like to schedule a project meeting to coincide with our conference to keep costs down, please contact us at

p2p2003@ida.liu.se

Linköpings universitet has ample meeting and conference facilities, along with dining and support facilities, and we would be happy to extend an invitation to your consortium to hold your meeting here. This could make it easier for more of your consortium members to participate in the conference and share knowledge and experience with other researchers in the field.
