[CALL FOR PAPERS]

The First International Workshop on Dependable and Sustainable Peer-to-Peer
Systems (DAS-P2P 2006) is the first workshop which focuses on dependability
and sustainability of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, with respect to their
designs, operations, applications and social impacts.

P2P can be a promising technology on which we can depend lives of ours and our
children, upon which we can build sustainable societies.

Designs of P2P systems are characterized by their usage of overlay networks
such that there is symmetry in the roles among participants. This implies
distribution of authorities, not only preventing introduction of single points
of failure, but also assuring a level of autonomy which allows many of us to
spontaneously start, maintain, or recover from failures of, such systems.

Although difficulties exist, such as uncertainty in the trust among
participants, one needs to be aware that such difficulties are, in many parts,
due to our own human nature; depending on P2P is, in fact and literally,
depending on ourselves and our friends, who seem to be the only ones we can
trust anyway, when it comes to our own survival.

The goal of this workshop is to share experiences, insights and new ideas, and
set forth research agendas and suggestive future directions by collaborations
among researchers with different disciplines and with similar interests toward
dependability and sustainability.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of relevant topics:

* Designs and operations of dependable and sustainable P2P systems
  - Self-organization and emergence
  - Attack-resistance
  - Fault tolerance
  - Sustainable operations
  - Sustainable mutual trust
  - Sustainable reciprocal relationships

* Applications and social impacts of dependable and sustainable P2P systems
  - Sustainable economy
  - Sustainable governance
  - Sustainable lifestyles
  - Rescue activities
  - Post-catastrophic recovery
  - Tackling environmental problems

The program of the workshop will be a combination of invited talks, paper
presentations and discussions.

[SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS]

The workshop invites your contributions of previously unpublished papers, which
will be selected based on their originality, technical merit and topical
relevance. Papers will also be selected by the likelihood that they will lead
to interesting and fruitful discussions at the workshop.
