ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC 2026)

About this event

The ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC) is an international conference focused on the theory, design, analysis, implementation, and application of distributed systems and networks. It solicits research papers across distributed computing from theory, practice, and experimentation, aiming to advance understanding of foundational principles. The page highlights key submission milestones (abstract and full paper deadlines and notification date) and links to a call for workshops and tutorials plus the paper submission site. Topics span distributed algorithms and data structures, fault tolerance, consistency and replication, security and cryptography, distributed ledgers, cloud/cluster computing, and more.
