Objectives of the Workshop:

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 payment systems, connected devices,
collaboration systems, and many other ones. These applications may
greatly benefit from the support of different kinds of platforms, both
cloud and peer to peer. 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, the analysis and validation of the huge
amount of content generated by these applications asks for big data
analysis and processing techniques. 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.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

- Distributed Large Scale Collaborative Environments (LSCE) and
applications
- Online Social Networks
- Distributed financial transactions systems
- Connected devices tracking in distributed systems
- Distributed Virtual Environments
- Platforms for collaborative applications
- Block-chain technology to support LSCE
- Distributed Consensus
- General purpose distributed auditing through block-chains
- Cloud platforms for LSCE
- P2P platforms
- Distributed cloud storage systems
- Big Data processing for LSCE
- Security and Privacy in LSCE
