The CFP for JSAIT's 7th Special Issue. The focus of this special issue is on the applications of coding to the broad area of networking for efficient exploitation and delivery of data. Various coding techniques have been devised to tackle erasures and achieve fundamental limits of compression to recover a message with a fidelity criterion. Motivated by the research in this direction and a wide variety of applications at the intersection of distributed systems and networking, this special issue will focus on key aspects ranging from employment of coding for enhancing the efficiency of networking, protocols, computation and delivery in distributed systems, to maintaining consistency in updates and improving accessibility in distributed storage systems, as well as providing desired performance tradeoffs in terms of efficiency, delay and atomicity.
