Last, but not least, thanks to all the participants and authors. We hope that they enjoyed the workshop as much as the wonderful and culturally vibrant city of Kolkata! Bhabani P. Sinha Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata, India December 2004 Sajal K. Das University of Texas, Arlington, USA December 2004 Program Chairs’ Message On behalf of the Technical Program Committee of the 6th International Wo- shop on Distributed Computing, IWDC 2004, it was our great pleasure to w- come the attendees to Kolkata, India. Over the last few years, IWDC has emerged as an internationally renowned forum for interaction among researchers from academia and industries around the world. A clear indicator of this fact is the large number of high-quality submissions of technical papers received by the workshop this year. The workshop program consisted of 12 technical sessions with 54 contributed papers, two keynote addresses, four tutorials, a panel, a poster session and the Prof.A.K.ChoudhuryMemorialLecture.TheIWDCProgramCommittee,c- prising 38 distinguished members, worked hard to organize the technical p- gram. Following a rigorous review process, out of 157 submissions only 54 - pers were accepted for presentation in the technical sessions; 27 of the accepted papers were classi?ed as regular papers and the remaining 27 as short papers. Another 11 papers were accepted for presentation in the poster session, each with a one-page abstract appearing in the proceedings.
