Seventh Workshop on
Large Scale
Distributed Virtual Environments, LSDVE 2019
in conjunction
of Euro-Par 2019
Goettingen,
August 26 2019
The
recent advances in networking have determined an increasing use of
information technology to support distributed networked cooperative
applications. Several novel applications have emerged in this area:
social networks, distributed cryptocurrencies, collaborative work and
many other ones. In particular, an interesting technology recently
adopted to handle cryptocurrencies (such as bitcoin) is the block-chain
technology, that has now taken the more general role to handle several
distributed applications. Furthermore, peer to peer, Internet of
Things, Smart-cities, distributed
sensing are examples of modern ICT paradigms that aim to describe globally
cooperative infrastructures built upon objects' intelligence and self-configuring capabilities.
This workshop aims to provide a venue for researchers to present and
discuss important aspects of large scale networked collaborative
applications and of the platforms supporting them. The definition of
these applications requires to afford several challenges, like the
design of user interfaces, coordination protocols, and proper
middle-ware and architectures. The track's aim is to investigate open
challenges for such applications, related to both the applications
design and to the definition of proper supports. Some important
challenges are, for instance, adaptation of the classical block-chain
technology to support collaborative applications, protocols design,
distributed consensus algorithms, privacy and security issues.
The workshop will both present assessment of current state and introduce
further directions.

● Distributed Large Scale Collaborative Environments (LSCE) and applications
● Distributed online social networks
● Distributed Environments for Social Media
