-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] due on 12/1: IEEE Comm. Mag.: Network Testing Series Datum: Mon, 8 Nov 2010 00:10:02 +0800 Von: Dr Ying-Dar Lin <ydlin(a)cs.nctu.edu.tw> Antwort an: Dr Ying-Dar Lin <ydlin(a)cs.nctu.edu.tw> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> [ Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] IEEE Communications Magazine Call for Papers Network Testing Series The objective of the Network Testing Series of IEEE Communications Magazine is to provide a forum across the academia and the industry to address the design and implementation defects unveiled by network testing. In the industry, testing has been a mean to evaluate the design and implementation of a system. But in the academia, a more common practice is to evaluate a design by mathematical analysis or simulation without actual implementations. A less common practice is to evaluate a design by testing a partial implementation. That is, the academia focuses more deeply on algorithmic design evaluation while the industry has broader concerns on both algorithmic design issues and system implementation issues. Often an optimized algorithmic component could not guarantee the optimal operation of the whole system when other components throttle the overall performance. This series thus serves as a forum to bridge the gap, where the design or implementation defects found by either community could be referred by another community. The defects could be found in various dimensions of testing. The type of testing could be functionality, performance, conformance, interoperability and stability of the systems under test (SUT) in the lab or in the field. The SUT could be black-box without source code or binary code, grey-box with binary code or interface, or white-box with source code. For grey-box or white-box testing, profiling would help to identify and diagnose system bottlenecks. For black-box testing, benchmarking devices of the same class could reflect the state of the art. The SUT could range from link-layer systems such as Ethernet, WLAN, WiMAX, 3G/4G cellular, and xDSL, to mid-layer switches and routers, upper-layer systems such as VoIP, SIP signaling, multimedia, network security, and consumer devices such as handhelds. In summary, the Network Testing Series solicits articles falling in, but not limited to, the following topics: * Testing functionality, performance, conformance, interoperability, and stability * Testing systems and services of 10G Ethernet, Power over Ethernet, WLAN, WiMAX, 3G/4G cellular, xDSL, switches, routers, IPv6, VoIP, SIP signaling, storage area networks, network security, and consumer handhelds * Testing various layers of network devices including black-boxes, white-boxes, and grey-boxes * Benchmarking and profiling network systems and services * Network lab testing and field testing * Designing network test methodologies, test tools, and test beds * Evaluating false positive and negative of network security * Analyzing lab-found and customer-found defects Submission Prospective authors are strongly encouraged to contact the Series Editors before writing and submitting an article in order to ensure that the article will be appropriate for the Series. The submitted articles should not be published elsewhere or be under review for any other conference or journal. Articles should be tutorial yet rigorous in nature. Mathematical equations should not be used (although some simple equations may be allowed if permission is granted by the Series Editor and the Editor-in-Chief). Articles should not exceed 4500 words. Figures and tables should be limited to a combined total of six. Complete guidelines for prospective authors can be found at: http://www.comsoc.org/livepubs/ci1/info/sub_guidelines.html. Please send PDF (preferred) or MSWORD formatted papers to Manuscript Central (http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/commag-ieee), register or log in, and go to the Author Center. Follow the instructions there, and select the topic "Network Testing Series." Articles to be considered for publication in the January 2011 issue must be submitted by June 1, 2010. Since this is a regular series, papers can be submitted at any time for consideration for subsequent issues. Schedule for the First Issue of each year: Submission Deadline: June 1 Acceptance Notification: September 1 Final Manuscript Submission: November 1 Expected Publication Date: January Schedule for the Second Issue of each year: Submission Deadline: December 1 Acceptance Notification: March 1 Final Manuscript Submission: May 1 Expected Publication Date: July Series Editors Ying-Dar Lin, ydlin(a)cs.nctu.edu.tw National Chiao Tung University – Network Benchmarking Lab (NCTU-NBL), TAIWAN Erica Johnson, erica.johnson(a)iol.unh.edu University of New Hampshire – InterOperability Lab (UNH-IOL), USA Tom McBeath, Tom.McBeath(a)spirent.com Spirent Communications Inc., USA Eduardo Joo, ejoo(a)empirix.com Empirix Inc., USA _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc
