Call for Workshops and Tutorials

DISC 2024 will be held in Madrid, Spain from the 28th of October to the 1st of November. We invite proposals for full-day and half-day workshops and tutorials. They will take place on Monday the 28th of October and Friday the 1st of November.

We expect that most talks of workshops are held in presence at the conference site. There will be up to 3-4 workshops each day (depending on the predicted number of participants) where we synchronize the parallel talks as much as possible so that “cross-workshops” participants will not miss any of the talks. This also guarantees shared coffee and lunch breaks.

We are interested in topics which are related to distributed computing and systems on one hand, but also in topics that have the potential of extending the scope of what the community sees as “distributed computing” on the other hand.

Important Dates

Workshop/Tutorial proposal deadline: May 31, 2024.

The notification will be provided shortly after the proposal has been sent.
