The International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking (ICDCN) is a premier international conference dedicated to addressing advances in Distributed Computing and Communication Networks. The 27th edition of this conference will be held at the Nara Kasugano International Forum IRAKA, located in a historical city, Nara, Japan. Nara is the most historic and spiritual center of Japan, where the first capital city was built over 1300 years ago. Close to Kyoto and Osaka and quickly accessible by train, Nara has World Heritage sites and well-preserved temples and shrines. 

ICDCN 2026 will consist of a highly selective technical program consisting of refereed papers, distinguished keynotes, an industrial track, workshops, tutorials, posters and demos, and a doctoral symposium on emerging topics about distributed computing and networking. 

The proceedings of ICDCN 2026, including all satellite events such as posters, demos, and workshops, will be published in the ACM International Conference Proceeding Series (ICPS). Additionally, extended versions of selected papers will be invited for fast-track publications in the Theoretical Computer Science (TCS) Journal or in Elsevier's Pervasive and Mobile Computing (PMC) Journal.
