The First International workshop on Distributed Ubiquitous Computing: Systems, Applications, and Networking (DUCSAN) aims to bridge communities that have traditionally focused on different aspects of large-scale pervasive and distributed systems. As technology and research get more and more specialized, the problem of information silo effect becomes more and more prevalent. The main focus of the workshop is to be a forum to encourage thought-provoking discussion between the PerCom community and the system and networking communities. We also hope to encourage interdisciplinary discussion and collaboration through lively and interactive activities.

The workshop consists of a keynote on advanced storage systems for emerging applications and two hands-on tutorials on distributed storage systems and Google cloud platform. The workshop technical program committee has reviewed submitted papers regarding their quality, relevance to the workshop topics, and insights to both communities. DUCSAN 2020 has attracted 4 submissions, from which 3 high-quality papers have been accepted into the workshop's technical program. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the DUCSAN technical program committee for providing thoughtful reviews.

We would also like to thank the PerCom organizing committee, particularly the workshops chairs Amy Murphy and Edison Thomaz for their support. Finally, we are very grateful to all authors for their contributions. Please enjoy the workshop and help establish new collaborations.
