-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP ACM SIGCOMM CoNEXT'14 Datum: Thu, 17 Apr 2014 14:58:50 +0200 Von: Emmanuel Lochin <emmanuel.lochin(a)ISAE.FR> Antwort an: Emmanuel Lochin <emmanuel.lochin(a)ISAE.FR> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Call for papers The ACM SIGCOMM CoNEXT conference travels to another continent to complete its first decade as one of the major forums for presentations and discussions of novel computing technologies that will shape the future of Internetworking. The goal of the conference is to foster technical interactions among members of computer and communication networks research at large through a single track program promoting their most promising works. This new installment of the conference is proudly committed to the three values that made the conference successful for nearly ten years: Recognizing farsighted excellence, by selectively choosing papers with substantial novelty and research contribution. Promoting a broad definition of networking research, by welcoming submissions based on implementation and experimentation as well as theoretical analysis. Assuring authors of submitted papers a fair and thorough review process, with sound and detailed feedback guaranteed to each submissions in proportion of its scientific merit and potential. Scope The Program Committee of ACM CoNEXT seeks papers presenting significant and novel research results on emerging computer and communication networks. We especially encour- age submissions that present novel experimentation, creative use of networking technologies and new insights made possible using analysis or computing concepts rarely found among networking researchers. We invite submissions on a wide range of networking research including : * Networking aspects of mobile, wireless and ubiquitous computing * Networking aspects of operating systems and virtualization architectures * Network control and management, including datacenter, enterprise and SDN * Security and privacy aspects of computer networks and protocols * Theory and performance analysis of networking architectures and applications * Novel application of other fields to computer networking We are open to other contributions that stretch networking research outside of these topics, present new emerging computing trends and potentially involve unfamiliar techniques. We invite the authors to bear in mind that the main factor of interest for their work will be the implications of their results in networking. These should be clearly substantiated and explained. Submission Authors must submit their papers electronically, following the guidelines available on the ACM SIGCOMM CoNEXT web page. The committee encourages substantiated results with a succinct presentation. All papers will be part of a single track. More details will be provided on the format of the papers closer to the submission date. The selection of presentations will be based on peer-review by program committee members. This year, in an effort to inform judgment on the selection of presented papers, the PC will organize a rolling early feedback phase. During that time, and before review are completed, PC members are able to request authors for clarifications, typically on assumptions made and results obtained. Authors of submitted papers who receive such a request have the non mandatory option to answer that request within a week. We encourage this interaction espe- cially to give a chance to a minority of "controversial" papers that could be of special interest to our community, but raises important concerns that need to be addressed. Publication The proceedings of the conference will be published by the ACM.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] COMNET Special Issue on Robust and Fault-Tolerant Communication Networks Datum: Wed, 16 Apr 2014 07:34:23 +0000 Von: Prosper Chemouil <prosper.chemouil(a)ORANGE.COM> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG Special Issue on *Robust and Fault-Tolerant Communication Networks* *Description of the Special Issue* Network services over communication networks play a vital role in our modern private, corporate and institutional lives. This importance is expected to continue to grow in future decades. More and more business, healthcare or government organizations will become increasingly dependent on the communication between their departments, offices and people. In addition, the dynamics and mobility within these circles is growing significantly, due to changing business relations, social or environmental phenomena. Not only does society depend on these services in terms of availability but also in terms of proper functioning in all circumstances: services having stringent requirements with respect to protection of privacy, security, anonymity (such as e-health) cannot accept, for example, temporary leakage of confidential information by accident whether a result of human error or technical problems. The information and communication network technology itself has also been evolving with high velocity. End-user’s connection speed grows by 50 % per year (Nielsen’s Law); users have more and more different types of mobile devices which interconnect them to the Internet (tablets, smartphones, smart watches, etc.). These themselves provide incentives to generate novel technology paradigms which enable more flexible provisioning, network (function) virtualization, or improved power efficiency. The robustness and fault tolerance of these novel evolutions is as crucial as ever. This special issue aims to collect publications with cutting-edge insights, analysis, designs and/or evaluations in the field of the reliability and availability of communication networks and services. The editors welcome submissions from experts from industry, governments and academia experienced in engineering, network design or modeling. *Topics of Interest* Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: * Management and operational aspects in network reliability (e.g. fault management/monitoring, or control) * Robust methods for correct operation of privacy, security and anonymity schemes. * Reliability and recovery of Software-Defined Networks (SDN) and Network (Function) Virtualization (NFV) * Self-healing and autonomic networks * Green Networking and reliability/dependability * Methods and theory for survivable network and systems design, analysis and operation (including scalability and complexity) * Planning, design and optimization of reliable networks, systems, and services * Simulation/emulation techniques for network resilience * Application and service-specific survivability techniques * Reliability and resilience of data centre networks, grid networks and cloud computing services * Communication networks as an element of critical infrastructures * Public policy, economical or commercial issues for survivability and resilience * Risk and reliability in the Internet and enterprise networks * New and emerging threats (such as self-healing, self-organizing mechanisms and short-coming in network control software being turned against the network itself) *Submission Details* All received submissions within the scope of this special issue will be sent out for blind peer review by three experts in the field and be evaluated in regards to the relevance for this special issue, level of novelty, depth of contribution, and overall quality. Submitted articles must be original, unpublished, and not currently under review by other journals. If the paper was preliminarily published in a conference, the submitted manuscript must be a substantial extension of the conference paper. In this case, authors are also required to explain the enhancements made in the journal version. Submitted articles must be written clearly, in good English, and should not exceed 25 pages, everything included such as abstract, figures, tables, references, etc. Authors should follow the Computer Networks manuscript format which can be found at _http://www.elsevier.com/journals/computer-networks/1389-1286/guide-for-aut…. Manuscripts should be submitted online through the Elsevier Editorial System _http://ees.elsevier.com/comnet/_ and authors should select ' Fault Tolerant Comm Nets ' as the article type for submission. *Important Dates* Paper Submission Due: June 1, 2014 Acceptance Notification: August 1, 2014 Final Papers Due: September 15, 2014 Publication Target Date: December, 2014 *Guest Editors* *Dr. Achim Autenrieth* ADVA Optical *Dr. Deborah Frincke* NSA/CSS *Prof. Dr. Didier Colle* Department of Information Technology (INTEC) Ghent University - iMinds, Belgium *Dr. Wouter Tavernier* Department of Information Technology (INTEC) Ghent University - iMinds, Belgium _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ce message et ses pieces jointes peuvent contenir des informations confidentielles ou privilegiees et ne doivent donc pas etre diffuses, exploites ou copies sans autorisation.
