About The Workshop
Distributed Computing Systems (DCS) have emerged as pivotal tools for effective management in logistics operations. The logistics industry is increasingly dependent on intelligent systems and communications to manage and optimize real time processes such as transportation scheduling, inventory tracking, and real-time shipment monitoring. As the logistics sector becomes more complex and demands for efficiency increase, the role of intelligent & distributed computing as well as smart communications in managing these challenges has grown significantly. This workshop: (1) is timely given the ongoing advancements in smart logistics and their potential to transform logistics management, making it more efficient, secure, and resilient, (2) aims to explore innovative applications and advancements in the integration of efficient communications/networks, distributed and intelligent systems within logistics operations; and (3) will cover the latest research and applications of distributed computing, communications and mobile networks in addressing the complex and dynamic nature of logistics event management.

Submision Guidelines
Papers must be original, unpublished, and must not be submitted concurrently for publication elsewhere. All paper submissions should follow the IEEE 8.5x11 two-column format using 10pt fonts and the IEEE Conference template (downloadable by selecting Conferences in the IEEE-Template Selector https://template-selector.ieee.org/). Each submission can have up to 6 pages (including figures, tables, appendices, and references). Papers exceeding this page limit or with smaller fonts will be rejected without review. If your submission is accepted for publication, up to 1 page over length may be purchased for the final camera-ready version. For each accepted paper, at least one author is required to pay a full author registration and attend the conference to present their work on site. No-show paper will be reported to the publisher and removed from the conference publication. For authors with multiple papers accepted by the conference, a separate author registration is required for each paper.
Authors of accepted papers must ensure that at least one of the co-authors is registered for the workshop and physically presents their work.
Note that the authors should adhere to ethic and professional standards of IEEE. Please refer to IEEE Code of Ethics and IEEE Policy of AI-Generated Text.
