-------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers IEEE GLOBECOM 2009 Next-Generation Networking & Internet Symposium Honolulu, Hawaii, USA November 30 - December 4, 2009 --------------------------------------------------------------------
Symposium Chairs ================ Nasir Ghani, University of New Mexico (nghani@ece.unm.edu) Ashwin Gumaste, IIT Bombay/ MIT (ashwing@ieee.org) Xiaoming Fu, University of Goettingen (fu@cs.uni-goettingen.de) Deep Medhi, University of Missouri-Kansas City (dmedhi@umkc.edu)
Call for Papers =============== Over the last three decades the Internet has undergone massive transformations, migrating from a relatively focused scientific research network to a ubiquitous and pervasive communications medium for the masses. This change has been brought about by immense research progress in all layers of the network hierarchy, i.e., ranging from new applications, to service-aware networking protocols and hardwares, all the way down to physical transmission technologies (both wireless and wireline).
Now as the Internet continues to evolve and expand today, a host of new research challenges and business opportunities are beckoning. Of particular importance are emerging topics in the area of network heterogeneity, virtualization, services, and security. The growing cadre of wireless users is also adding another dimension into the mix and pushing to the forefront issues such as mobility management, content distribution, and self-organization.
Along these lines, the Next-Generation Networking & Internet Symposium of IEEE GLOBECOM 2009 will address some of these exciting new challenges and focus areas. Specifically, this event will solicit participation from both academic and industry researchers working in key areas of Internet design such as enabling technologies, services, architectures, and protocols. The overriding goal of this symposium will be to garner the collective experience and expertise of these researchers to help uncover the latest trends and directions for future Internet design. Another concurrent aim will also be to solicit new ideas on the future migration of the Internet, with regards to evolutionary or greenfield strategies.
The symposium will encourage the submission of novel technical studies as well as broader position and vision papers comprising hypothetical/speculative scenarios. Submissions must be conformant to the GLOBECOM 2009 guidelines and done via EDAS entry: http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=6730&
Topics of Interest ================== The planned symposium topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Future Internet architectures * Heterogeneous multi-layer and multi-domain networks, wireless-wireline internetworking * Overlay networks and peer-to-peer networking * Network virtualization, virtual private networks (VPN), and services * Provisioning, monitoring, and management of IP services: traffic engineering, mobility support, etc. * Flow management: resource sharing, congestion control, etc. * Routing: unicast, multicast, anycast, etc (wireless, wireline) * Multihoming, network planning and optimization * Addressing and naming, especially in the presence of mobility and portability * Operational and research issues with IPv6 * VoIP protocols and services * Self-protecting networking * Switch and router architectures, performance, control, buffer management, packet scheduling * Network management methodologies and control plane design * Internet survivability and network resilience strategies * Mechanisms for self-organisation and autonomous networking * Traffic measurement, analysis, modelling, and visualization * Anomaly, intrusion, and attack detection/prevention * Policy based mechanisms and high-speed firewall technology * Packet classification and forwarding mechanisms at ultra-high link rates (terabits) * High speed and parallel processing architectures for next generation routers * Connecting mobile/wireless devices to the Internet * Converged networks and applications * Content-based networking: caching, distribution, load balancing, resiliency * Mobile/wireless content distribution * Internet applications including interactive media, voice and video, games, immersive applications * Internet signalling and service enabling protocols, including SIP, NSIS, HTTP, RTSP/RTP, etc * Privacy and/or security issues and intrusion detection in the Internet * Design methodologies for Internet services * Internet economics, pricing models, accounting, Internet growth modelling * IP Multimedia Subsystem: Architecture and design * Next-Generation Access Networking
