Abstract The International Journal of Networked and Distributed Computing has been pioneering research that advances our understanding of networked and distributed computing. As the newly appointed Editor-in-Chief, in this editorial, I articulate my vision for the future of the journal, emphasizing its commitment to maintaining rigorous standards while embracing technological advancements. Key areas of focus will be extended to include the Quantum Internet, Serverless Computing, Distributed Intelligence, the convergence of HPC and Cloud Continuum, and sustainable computing practices. Innovative initiatives, such as enhancing the editorial board, forging strategic research partnerships, and, possibly, expanding article types, are introduced to elevate the journal’s impact and relevance. The feasibility of establishing an ad hoc periodic series of works realized in collaboration with key researchers in the different fields, focused on recent trends, findings, and technological roadmaps will be investigated. The rigorous editorial process that characterizes the journal, aimed at ensuring academic integrity and transparency, will not be affected.
