The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners in
the fields of systems, networking, and theory. The program of the
workshop will be a combination of invited talks, presentations of
position papers, and discussions. There will be no formal, published
proceedings, so accepted workshop papers may be revised, expanded and
submitted to full conferences and journals. However, authors of
accepted papers are encouraged to forward their papers to an upcoming,
independent, special issue of Wiley's Concurrency and Computation:
Practice and Experience. The issue will include IPTPS papers as well
as independent submissions. Finally, to ensure a productive workshop
environment, attendance at IPTPS will be limited to participants who
are active in the field.
Each potential participant should submit a position paper that exposes a new problem, advocates a specific solution, or reports on actual experience. Participants will be invited based on the originality, technical merit, and topical relevance of their submissions, as well as the likelihood that the ideas expressed in their submissions will lead to insightful technical discussions at the workshop. Please do not submit abbreviated versions of journal or conference papers. In particular, submissions to IPTPS should not be concurrent with a substantially similar submission to a conference, including condensed versions of work that has been submitted to a conference and is currently under review. Papers should follow these guidelines:
