*Dear Professor/ Researchers,*

Greetings From KIIT University!

We are pleased to inform you about the 23rd International Conference on
Distributed Computing and Intelligent Technology (ICDCIT-2027) to be
held from* January 08th to 11th, 2027, at the Kalinga
Institute of Industrial Technology, Deemed to be University, Bhubaneswar,
India.*

ICDCIT is a premier international conference that brings together
researchers and practitioners to present advances in Distributed
Computing, *Intelligent
Technologies*, and Artificial Intelligence for Science. It provides a forum
for sharing innovative research, fostering academic–industry collaboration,
and discussing emerging trends in distributed systems. The conference
features keynote talks, technical paper presentations, and doctoral
symposiums, attracting participants from academia, industry, and research
organizations worldwide.

In continuity with the esteemed tradition observed over the past
twenty-two editions, we are proud to announce that Springer-Verlag will
publish the proceedings of ICDCIT 2027* in the renowned series of Lecture
Notes in Computer Science.*

This event is overseen by Chairpersons worldwide, including illustrious
professors from IITs. To maintain global standards, ICDCIT will be
implementing the robust checking method through double-blind reviewing to
avoid bias.

The ICDCIT serves as an esteemed platform for scholars, researchers, and
professionals from diverse fields to convene, exchange ideas, and
contribute to the advancement of knowledge. We request you to please convey
the word to your colleagues and through your network of contacts, encourage
your students and co-workers to submit quality papers, and consider
submitting a paper yourself. It is our honour to announce the first call
for papers for the ICDCIT 2026 and we will be elated to have your
participation and expertise in the same. Therefore request you to post your
work at the conference and will appreciate your visit to the conference.

*Special Issue:*

Over the years, extended and revised versions of a few selected papers from
the Distributed Computing track  were  published in a special issue of the
international journal Theoretical Computer Science (TCS). This year too, we
will take up such efforts for all three tracks of the conference. More
details will be posted soon.

*__________________________________________________*



*Awards:*

Recognition will be granted to the most outstanding regular paper and
student paper. For a submission to qualify for the student award, it is
required that at least one author maintains full-time student status during
the submission period. We request that authors explicitly denote
eligibility for this category (for instance, by employing the \thanks
command within the title). The Program Committee reserves the right to
divide the honors or refrain from presenting awards at their discretion.

*__________________________________________________*



*Paper Submission:*

 Papers are to be submitted electronically using the Easy Chair link (
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icdcit27) During the paper
submission, you will be required to choose one of the three tracks:
Distributed Computing, Intelligent Technology, or AI for Science. Please
choose the track based on the topics mentioned above.

The submissions must contain original results that have not already been
published and are not concurrently submitted to a journal or conference
with published proceedings. By submitting a paper, the authors acknowledge
that in case of acceptance at least one of the authors will register for
ICDCIT 2027 and present the paper.



Submissions must be in the form of a single pdf file prepared using the
LNCS latex templates and style files (Information for Authors of Springer
Computer Science Proceedings
<https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines>
). Springer's proceedings LaTeX templates are also available on
Overleaf (Springer
Lecture Notes in Computer Science - Overleaf, Online LaTeX Editor
<https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/springer-lecture-notes-in-computer-science/kzwwpvhwnvfj#.WuA4JS5uZpi>
).

Each submission should consist of the main part of the paper, not exceeding
12 pages (including the title page and excluding the references), plus an
optional clearly marked appendix (to be read at the discretion of the
program committee). Any figure pertaining to the main part of the paper
should be included therein (within the 12 page limit). The first page must
include an indication of whether the paper is eligible for the best student
paper award.



Anonymous submissions are required, with authors’ identities concealed
throughout the paper. Names, addresses and affiliations must be omitted.
Any references to related work should be in the third person (e.g., “The
authors build on previous work…”).

Authors with additional inquiries regarding the double-blind review process
are encouraged to contact the Program Committee chairs via email. They
retain the freedom to share their work through platforms such as ArXiv and
other online repositories and are welcome to deliver presentations on their
research as customary.
