Beschreibung

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Distributed Computing, IWDC 2002, held in Calcutta, India, in December 2002.

The 31 revised full papers and 3 student papers presented together with 3 keynote papers were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 90 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Web caching, distributed computing, wireless networks, wireless mobile systems, VLSI and parallel systems, optical networks, and distributed systems.
