*******************************************************
The 6th International Conference on
Internet and Distributed Computing Systems (IDCS 2013)
October 28-30, 2013, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China
*******************************************************

IDCS 2013 conference is the sixth in its series to promote research in
diverse fields related to Internet and Distributed Computing Systems.
The emergence of Web as a ubiquitous platform for innovations has laid
the foundation for the rapid growth of the Internet. Side-by-side, the
use of mobile and wireless devices such as PDA, laptop, and cell
phones for accessing the Internet has paved the ways for related
technologies to flourish through recent developments. In addition, the
popularity of sensor networks is promoting better integration of the
digital world with physical environment. In IDCS 2013 conference, we
are interested in receiving innovative papers on emerging technologies
related to Internet and distributed systems to support the effective
design and efficient implementation of high-performance computer
networks. The target audience includes researchers and industry
practitioners those are interested in different aspects of the
Internet and distributed systems, with a particular focus on the
practical experiences with the design and implementation of related
technologies as well as their theoretical perspectives.
