Motivation and Scope The Internet is fast emerging as the ubiquitous transport network to provide wide range of multimedia services like IP Datacast, Streaming and Multimedia Broadcast. Also, there has been a growing popularity of portable devices, such as notebook computers, PDAs and mobile phones in recent years. Now it is possible to provide very high-speed access to portable devices with emerging technologies like WLAN and 3G networks. This has lead to the search for newer applications and algorithms that can add value to an end-user's experience by combining multimedia services with mobile specific services. The research issues to provide multimedia services in wireless environments are numerous. We are seeking papers that are original, unpublished, and not currently under review by an other conference, workshop, or journal. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: -- QoS issues with multimedia services. -- Signaling architecture to support multimedia services in next generation wireless networks. -- Multimedia Security. -- Architectural issues in providing multimedia services in heterogeneous wireless environments. -- Location and mobility issues. -- System modeling and performance evaluation. -- Protocol design, analysis, and optimization. -- Routing (including multicasting and broadcasting) -- Joint MAC and network layer optimization issues to provide multimedia services in emerging wireless networks. -- Congestion, admission, and flow control. -- Implementation and test-bed experiments. Submission Guidelines Authors MUST submit a short abstract submission (approximately 150 words in the EDAS web site form) AND an extended abstract (up to 2 pages) also submitted through the EDAS web site. The extended abstracts are soft copy in MS Word or PDF file formats. The submission must include the name, complete mailing address, telephone and fax numbers, and the email address of the author(s). Extended abstracts should be submitted electronically (MS Word or PDF) by March 10, 2003.

[Fwd: [Tccc] J-SAC Special Issue]

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] J-SAC Special Issue Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2003 18:22:22 -0500 From: Mohsen Guizani <mguizani(a)cs.wmich.edu> To: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications INTELLIGENT SERVICES AND APPLICATIONS IN NEXT GENERATION NETWORKS Next generation networks are expected to be very complex systems interconnecting different technologies and architectures across various software platforms. No single technology or architecture will be able to smoothly glue together such complex systems into a single network of all networks. DSL and Cable once dominating the access networks will be challenged by new cheap alternatives such as optical ethernet, wireless LANs, fixed wireless access systems such as LMDS, and even dark fiber. Metro networks will also be dominated by an array of technologies from multiple service protocol platforms (MSPP) to resilient packet rings (RPR) to 10 GB-ethernet switches, and even OXC switching nodes. The backbone will be superhighways utilizing DWDM, OXC nodes interconnecting Gigabit and Terabit IP routers. 3G and beyond mobile networks will be a corner stone in extending communications services to mobile users. New services and applications will be supported on these complex systems through upper layer middleware software platforms. These services will no longer be independent static sources of content, rather will have intelligent software to adapt those sources to varying networks conditions, technologies, and platforms. This will be achieved through another intelligent layer of cognitive middleware that is capable of interfacing these services to the underlying network technologies. New services must be capable of receiving information about the network and adaptively tune their transport parameters as well as bit-rates according to the underlying networking conditions/technologies. New services and contents will need to understand networking traffic parameters, and react accordingly in order to maintain smooth traffic flows in the network and avoid skewness behaviors. The scope of this issue is to address the research and development efforts of the aforementioned various issues in the area of intelligent services and applications in next generation networks. In particular we are interested in papers dealing with state-of-the-art design and analysis, implementation and experimental results of cognitive and intelligent software agents/services and applications as well as architectures for intelligent content delivery. In this context, topics include: · Cognitive middleware · Cognitive software agents · Cognitive services and applications · Novel architectures for intelligent content delivery · Adaptive QoS provisioning issues · Peer-to-peer networking · Adaptive rate video encoding · Intelligent traffic management and control · Experimental test-beds and results · Programmable services interfaces · Intelligent transport and routing protocols · Adaptive, congestion controlled multicast / management and control · Intelligent algorithms · Service-aware congestion and traffic control protocols · Wireless and mobile issues for intelligent services · Adaptive security issues · Case studies Original, unpublished contributions prepared in accordance to the IEEE J-SAC format will be considered. Papers NOT related to one of the above listed topics WILL NOT be reviewed. Electronic submission in PDF format ONLY should be sent to one of the guest editors listed below. The following timetable shall apply: Manuscript Submission: NOVEMBER 1, 2003 Acceptance Notification: May 1, 2004 Final Manuscript Due: July 1, 2004 Publication: 1st Quarter 2005 Mohsen Guizani, Dept of Computer Science, Western Michigan Univ, mguizani(a)cs.wmich.edu Mario Gerla, Computer Science Dept, UCLA, gerla(a)cs.ucla.edu Mamoru Sawahashi, NTT DoCoMo, Japan, sawahashi(a)mlab.yrp.nttdocomo.co.jp Josef F.

[Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: IEEE Network special issue on protection, restoration, and disaster recovery]
by Lars Wolf 05 Feb '03

05 Feb '03

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] CFP: IEEE Network special issue on protection, restoration, and disaster recovery Date: Tue, 4 Feb 2003 20:18:19 -0500 From: Debanjan Saha <debanjan(a)yahoo.com> Reply-To: <debanjan(a)acm.org> To: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> IEEE Network Call for Papers Protection, Restoration, and Disaster Recovery http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/net/ntwrk/cfpnetwork2003.pdf Guest Editors: Debanjan Saha, Tellium, Inc. Satish Tripathi, University of California James Manchester, Tellium, Inc. Scope: Technological innovations are enabling today's networks to carry increasingly higher volumes of data, much of which is mission critical. As networks grow and become an integral part of our daily lives, the consequences of a failure become more pronounced. Even a brief outage can result in the loss of very large amounts of critical information and disrupt our day-to-day life and business. Network protection and automatic restoration can minimize the impact of network failures. Such protection mechanisms are generally implemented at several protocol layers and are the subject of this special issue. The objective of this special issue of IEEE Network Magazine is to assemble a series of state-of-the-art articles on protection, restoration, and disaster recovery in different layers of the network. In particular, we are interested in tutorial, survey, and original research articles on, but not limited to, the following topics: * Traditional SONET/SDH Ring protection mechanisms * Optical mesh protection, Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) * IP network restoration - MPLS, fast convergence of routing protocols * Protection and restoration in ATM and Frame Relay networks * Restoration in wireless and wireline telephone networks * Signaling network (SS7 etc.) protection and recovery * Disaster recovery in OSS and network management systems * Resiliency at the application layer, emergency services (e.g. 911) * Multi-tier restoration and interaction of different layers * Experimental studies, applications impact Submission Guidelines: Interested authors should submit an electronic version of the manuscript either in Postscript or PDF format as an email attachment to one of the guest editors. Additional information including "Guidelines for authors" is available at the IEEE Network Website: http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/net/ntwrk/authors.html Important Dates Submission Deadline: February 15, 2003 Notification of Acceptance: June 15, 2003 Final Manuscript Due: August 15, 2003 Publication Date: November/December 2003 _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu http://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/tccc
