There has always been an answer to all requirements, no matter whether caused by new applications or technologies. So, over time the formerly simple and clear Internet architecture has become a patchwork of new balconies, workarounds and bypasses. In this conference track we aim to discuss the two mainstreams of network advances: the "Clean-Slate Approach" as well as the "Evolutionary Approach". Beside future networks also new applications, especially in the field of social networks, are becoming popular. This conference track addresses the technical issues of such and other emerging applications. Decentralized applications for open communities require new solutions for resources provisioning, rating of user generated content and services and for security. We invite you to contribute to this conference track by submitting proposals in one or more of the categories outlined below. Submissions may address requirement analysis, specific approaches and presentations of first solutions. Future Networks * Future Internet architectural issues, clean slate and evolutionary approaches * Cross-layer design and optimization * Separating of identity and address (locator/ID split) * Network virtualization * Network and service management * Self-engineering communications * Content based routing * Security and privacy Future Applications * Video and audio casting * Approaches and reliability of collective rating and description of content and services * Supporting collaborative work * Distributed resources / distributed computing * Grid and cloud computing We encourage submissions demonstrating the potential of new applications by providing case studies, experiments, and quantitative data. We encourage submissions demonstrating the potential of new approaches by providing case studies, experiments, and quantitative data. Submission of papers -------------------- Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a PDF version of their paper to: http://seaa2009.vtt.fi/ Papers should not exceed 8 pages (in IEEE/CS proceedings format; 10pt, single-space, double-column) or 6000 words and include an abstract of up to 150 words. A cover page should clearly show the name, mailing address, e-mail address and fax number of the author to contact, as well as the topic areas of the submitted paper. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by IEEE. Selected papers will be offered the opportunity to appear as extended versions in a special issue of a scholarly journal. The following signed statement should be included on the cover page: "Neither this paper nor any version close to it has been or is being offered elsewhere for publication. All necessary clearances have been obtained for the publication of this paper. If accepted, the paper will be made available in Cameraready forms by May 26th 2009, and it will be personally presented at the EUROMICRO 2009 Conference by the author or one of the co-authors.

Our apology if you receive multiple posts of this announcement. ====================================================================== JSAC CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue on Mission Critical Networking Mission-Critical Networking (MCN) refers to networking for application domains where life or livelihood may be at risk. Typical application domains for MCN include critical infrastructure protection and operation, emergency and crisis intervention, healthcare services, and military operations. Such networking is essential for safety, security and economic vitality in our complex world characterized by uncertainty, heterogeneity, emergent behaviors, and the need for reliable and timely response. MCN should comprise networking technology, infrastructures and services that may alleviate the risk and directly enable and enhance connectivity for mission-critical information exchange among diverse, widely-dispersed, mobile users. A primary challenge to MCN is to deploy and dynamically configure and evolve communication networks that are dependable, autonomic, secure, adaptive, and rapidly deployable to support critical missions and their priorities. In order to operate effectively, the deployed networks should support services such as location determination of both authorized and unauthorized entities, quality-of-service aware audio and video communication, emergency calling and alerting, and in-situ and remote sensing and control in a secure and dependable manner. In addition, efficient operation of such networks that typically include numerous resource-constrained components may benefit from cross-layer optimization, cognition, resource engineering, on-demand federation, and service-oriented architecture. Also important is the integration of MCN with the Internet to reduce cost of deployment and maintenance and to enhance reachability and ubiquity. This special issue of the Journal on Selected Areas in Communications solicits high quality technical contributions in mission-critical networking including, but not limited to: - Architecture and design of MCN and next-generation emergency calling and alerting - Rapidly and dynamically deployable services and networks - Evolving "elastic" networking with decentralized and peer-to-peer resource management and allocation - Federation and policy management for heterogeneous networks and protocols - Trust, security, dependability, privacy, QoS and performance awareness and management for MCN - Sensor and actuator networks for critical information gathering, tracking and real-time control - MCN traffic and mobility analysis - Formal methodology for cognitive, autonomic, and context-aware protocols and network management - Spectrum management and access - Testbeds, benchmarks, performance and experimental studies ** Paper Submission Manuscripts should describe original, previously unpublished work, not currently under review. Argument justifying contribution specific to the unique features of MCN must be provided. Prospective authors should follow the IEEE JSAC manuscript format described in the Information for Authors at: http://www.jsac.ucsd.edu/Guidelines/info.html Authors should submit a PDF version of their complete manuscript to mcn-jsac(a)criticalnet.org according to the following timetable: - Manuscript submission: April 1, 2009 - First review notification: August 1, 2009 - Revised manuscript due: October 1, 2009 - Acceptance notification: November 1, 2009 - Final manuscript due: January 2, 2010 - Publication: June, 2010 ** Guest Editors - Mohamed Eltoweissy, Virginia Tech, USA - Silvia Giordano, SUPSI, Switzerland - Mohamed Gouda, University of Texas, USA - Moustafa Youssef, Nile University, Egypt - Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University, USA - Mario Gerla, UCLA, USA - David Du, National Science Foundation and University of Minnesota, USA _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc
