Apologies for cross-postings. =================================================== Call for Papers PRESTO'08: Workshop on Programmable Routers for Extensible Services of TOmorrow August 22, 2008 Co-located with ACM SIGCOMM 2008 in Seattle, WA, USA. http://www.sigcomm.org/sigcomm2008/workshops/presto/ Recently, there has been renewed interest in the networking research community in re-architecting the distribution of functions in an IP network. These efforts can be described as a dis-aggregation of router functionality into various components and well-defined interfaces, to enable deployment of richer services and easier management of the network. In addition, researchers and practitioners in industry have been exploring the notion of open routers, which allows new functionality to be easily added into routers, as well as exploring router virtualization as a way to support a diverse set of applications and users. These efforts span the range from building open-source routing software, to making routers third-party-developer friendly by exposing router APIs, as recent industry announcements indicate. Programmable network elements hold the promise of accelerating innovation and service deployment. At the same time programmability could exacerbate already challenging network management tasks. This workshop will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas between researchers and industry practitioners with a goal of driving service innovation in IP networks using novel extensible router architectures. Specific areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Architectures for open/programmable network elements, including transport, wireless and packet forwarding devices. - Abstractions for open/programmable network elements. (Programmability versus extendible configuration. Is programmability really needed? How close to the 'metal' should programmability be? E.g., do-it-yourself versus open APIs. ) - Efficient and flexible data plane programmability. (E.g., firmware versus multi-core platforms.) - Cross-layer aware programmability. - Network element virtualization. - Network composition, configuration and provisioning in virtualized environments. - Architectures, services and/or service features enabled by programmability. - The impact of programmability on network management and operations. The workshop solicits original papers on completed work, position papers, and/or work-in-progress papers on the challenges raised above. Papers that bring out new and interesting approaches at an early stage of their development are very welcome. Instructions for Authors Submissions must be no greater than 6 pages in length, must be a PDF file and must follow the SIGCOMM Workshop formatting guidelines. Submissions that deviate from these guidelines will be rejected without consideration. Paper submission details TBD. Important Dates Abstract Submission: February 29, 2008 Paper Submission: March 7, 2008 Acceptance Notification: April 17, 2008 Camera Ready Due: May 9, 2008 Workshop: August 22, 2008 Program Committee PC Chairs T.V.

[Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: 3rd IEEE Workshop on advanced EXPerimental activities ON WIRELESS networks & systems --- EXPONWIRELESS 2008]
by Lars Wolf 02 Jan '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: 3rd IEEE Workshop on advanced EXPerimental activities ON WIRELESS networks & systems --- EXPONWIRELESS 2008 Datum: Wed, 2 Jan 2008 07:21:04 -0600 Von: Yonghe Liu <yonghe(a)cse.uta.edu> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> CC: yonghe(a)uta.edu [Apologies for multiple posting] 3rd IEEE Workshop on advanced EXPerimental activities ON WIRELESS networks & systems --- EXPONWIRELESS 2008 http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/EXPONWIRELESS08 23 June, Newport Beach, CA, USA in conjunction with IEEE WoWMoM 2008 (http://wowmom08.ics.uci.edu/) CALL FOR PAPERS --------------- Wireless networks represent a challenging and ever growing research area. In these systems the interactions among the different network layers are very complex and their effects on the overall performance are not easy to accurately identify. Additionally, many simplifying assumptions considered in analytical studies do not hold in practise. Experimental activities involving the development of systems and device prototypes and the collection and analysis of measurements from actual networks can provide insight on the behaviour of such systems in realistic environments, which can be beneficial for understanding how cross-layer interactions impact in practise the overall performance, for deriving realistic simulation models, for analyzing particular phenomena and evaluating algorithms and protocols, and for exploring the design choices in building actual wireless networks. Such activities are pivotal for researchers, developers, service managers and providers, as well as for end users involved in the evolution of these networks. After successful events in the last years, EXPONWIRELESS 2008 aims to again bring together all the aspects related to experimental activities on wireless networks, creating a forum where researchers, vendors, providers and users can exchange ideas on past experience, current requirements, and future visions, that are important for the development of new protocols, algorithms, devices and systems. High quality papers discussing original and innovative experimental activities on wireless networks are solicited for submission. The main topics of the workshop are (but are not limited to): * Algorithms for self-configuration and self-management of beyond-3G systems * Deployment and experience with multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks * Device prototypes for wireless BANs, PANs, LANs, and MANs * Differentiated services in wireless multimedia networks * Energy-efficient protocols and power management algorithms * Experiences/lessons from recent wireless testbed deployments * Handoff and mobility management in beyond-3G systems * Location-aware services * Middleware platforms for wireless/mobile environments * Mobility models of wireless/mobile networks and systems * Positioning and tracking technologies * Power control and channel assignment * Prototype implementation of wireless/mobile networks and systems * QoS for real-time voice/video in wireless networks * Seamless internetworking and architectures for beyond 3G systems * Systems and methods for collecting and analyzing measurements in wireless networks * Security and privacy issues in wireless networks * Wireless/Mobile applications and services (e.g., vehicular networks, underwater networks, opportunistic networks, etc.) PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION -------------------------------- Submitted manuscripts should adhere to the IEEE double-column standard format with 10pt font size for texts. Authors should use only standard fonts, i.e., Times Roman, Courier, Symbol, and Helvetica, or equivalent. The maximum length of the manuscript is 5 pages. This limit includes figures, appendix, bibliography, etc. Papers significantly exceeding this limit will be automatically rejected. All papers must be submitted in PDF format using the ISAS Conference Manager http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/EXPONWIRELESS08/ISAS/ . Any question can be submitted to exponwireless08(a)iis.sinica.edu.tw. Accepted papers will be published by the IEEE in the combined WoWMoM 2008 workshop proceedings. IMPORTANT DATES --------------- - Submission Deadline: January 28, 2008 - Acceptance Notification: March 08, 2008 - Camera-ready Papers Due: April 4, 2008 WORKSHOP CO-ORGANIZERS ---------------------- Ling-Jyh Chen, Institute of Information Science, Academia Sinica, Taiwan Rosario G.
