-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] PATHNets 2004 - Call for Papers Date: Thu, 22 Apr 2004 13:51:37 -0700 (PDT) From: Murari Sridharan <murarisridharan(a)yahoo.com> To: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu Apologies if you receive multiple copies. CALL FOR PAPERS *********************************************************************************************** * 1st Workshop on Provisioning & Transport for Hybrid Networks (PATHNets) * * (co-located with BroadNets 2004) * * San Jose, CA, October 25 2004 * * * PATHNets 2004 * *********************************************************************************************** * http://www.pathnets.org <http://www.pathnets.org/> * *********************************************************************************************** SCOPE Whether it is image visualization, IP telephony, high-volume file transfers, or large-scale sciences like climate modeling, high-energy physics, and bioinformatics, these and other bandwidth-hungry applications are forcing us to re-think our current network theories and implementations. Today's network transport protocols are incapable of providing the network characteristics needed by large-scale applications. The highly flexible sharing relationships among geographically distributed computers are fundamentally changing the way we think about application development. Wide-area network infrastructure is evolving in such a way that our current network theories and implementations are being obsoleted. In the past and to some degree today, the wide-area infrastructure is primarily packet-switched with electronic signaling and switching. However, this infrastructure is rapidly changing, with high-speed optical routers interconnected within a circuit-switched optical core and with slower packet-switched networks in the periphery. The ubiquitous TCP protocol and its variants were originally designed and optimized for low speed transfers on shared networks where bandwidth is a critical and limited resource. To improve the transport performance on high bandwidth-delay product links, researchers have proposed many TCP variants like Scalable TCP, HighSpeed TCP, FAST TCP, etc. However, the current gigabits-per-second (peak) throughputs achie! ved using these variants are for short durations under heavily simulated conditions with manual parameter tuning. Large-scale applications require orders of magnitude more throughput to be available during the entire lifetime of the application! Recently the lambda-grid community has proposed a range of rate-based protocols like Reliable-Blast UDP (RBUDP) and SABUL which have performed better than TCP in general. However, it is not clear whether TCP-based protocols, non-TCP-based protocols, or a combination of both will be required for hybrid networks. How the protocol suite must evolve to the changing infrastructure and how network provisioning will be deployed in these hybrid networks will be the key networking issues over the next five to ten years. The PATHNets workshop invites original, unpublished, full papers that address research issues and real world case studies on the topics of interest that includes, but not limited to, the following: -Dynamic provisioning over a centrally-managed core vs. a distributed-managed core. -Real-time circuit set-up and scheduling algorithms. -Dynamic call admission and online reconfiguration techniques for hybrid networks -Transport protocols for a circuit-switched networks: TCP vs non-TCP. -Transport protocols for hybrid networks: TCP based vs non-TCP based, or a dynamic adaptation of both. -Heterogeneous routing and control algorithms that enable transport protocols to co-exist with an optical core. -Adaptation of transport protocols to operate over WANs spanning multiple medium types, e.g. optical and wireless, which can result in specific hops seeing higher error rates and subsequently, higher packet losses. -Design, architecture, and evaluation of provisioning systems. -Design, architecture, and evaluation of transport protocols. SUBMISSION Authors are invited to submit full papers of up to 20 double-spaced pages, including references, figures and tables. All submissions should be submitted electronically in Postscript or Adobe PDF format through the EDAS web site( http://edas.info ) <http://edas.info%20)/>Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere can be submitted.

Dear TPC & OC member, please distribute the attached CFP in all possible lists, you know including the various national lists you may know or maintain. Best Regards the IM'2005 TPC Chairs CALL FOR PAPERS ********************************************************************** 9th IFIP/IEEE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON INTEGRATED NETWORK MANAGEMENT (IM'05) 15-19 May, 2005 Nice, France http://www.ieee-im.org/ ********************************************************************** IMPORTANT DATES Submission : August 23, 2004 Notification : November 26, 2004 Cameray Ready : January 15, 2005 ********************************************************************** "Managing New Networked Worlds" The Ninth IFIP/IEEE International Symposium on Integrated Network Management (IM 2005) will be held 16-19 May 2005 in Nice, France. IM 2005 will present the latest technical advances in the area of management, operations and control of networks, networking services, networked applications, and distributed systems. Held in odd-numbered years since 1989 and taking turns with its sibling conference NOMS, IM 2005 will build on the successes of its predecessors and serve as the primary forum for technical exchange among the research, standards, vendor and user communities in the network management field. The symposium is sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 6.6 on Management of Networks and Distributed Systems, and by the IEEE Communications Society Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management (CNOM). We are witnessing the dawn of a new era in networking. New networked worlds emerge in which connectivity becomes increasingly ubiquitous and the infrastructure blends in seamlessly with business functions, applications, and the supported environment. These new worlds are no longer only characterized by the increasing heterogeneity and number of devices, but also by properties such as convergence, context awareness, accelerated service lifecycles, virtualization of resources, massive P2P infrastructures, unprecedented security challenges, and much more. Further, new types of networks are emerging such as sensor networks, agent networks, storage-area networks, and grid-based networks. All of this incurs new challenges and opportunities for network management and the ways in which it is approached, requiring management technology to evolve as rapidly as the new networked worlds. IM 2005 will be organized into technical sessions, panels, and tutorials. In addition, it will feature application sessions focusing on practical lessons learned by the user and vendor communities, posters, birds-of-a-feather sessions, and vendor exhibits. In the tradition of previous events, we strive to make the IM 2005 Symposium the highest quality professional event of the year. Paper submissions will undergo a stringent review process implemented by the Technical Program Committee which includes many of the most respected experts in the field. --------------------------------------------------------------------- TECHNICAL PROGRAM --------------------------------------------------------------------- Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conference or journal, as well as proposals for tutorials, panel discussions, poster demonstrations, or birds-of-a-feather sessions.
