The Second Workshop on the Future of Internet Transport (FIT 2020)
Call for Papers
Workshop homepage: https://networking.ifip.org/2020/workshops/fit-2020https://networking.ifip.org/2020/workshops/fit-2020
To be held in conjunction with the IFIP Networking 2020 Conference (NETWORKING 2020, https://networking.ifip.org/2020/https://networking.ifip.org/2020/) June 22, Paris, France
Over the last several decades and since its conception, the Internet transport layer has gradually been ossified, where deployment of new protocols and mechanisms has been extremely hard if not impossible. Application developers have traditionally been bound to use either stream-oriented connection-based reliable communication using TCP or datagram-oriented connection-less unreliable communication using UDP, and middleboxes have been mostly configured to allow traffic from these two protocols only, and hence disincentivizing the application developers to use any novel transport protocols and services (e.g., SCTP, DCCP, etc). In recent years, this long-standing stalemate has been broken thanks to the rapid progress made on several fronts amongst them: (1) IETF’s Transport Services working group (TAPS) and several industry stakeholders’ efforts to introduce platform- and protocol-independent transport layer APIs (e.g., Apple’s Network.framework, the IETF TAPS API, and the NEAT API); (2) new transport protocols being deployed on the wire that run over UDP as a substrate (e.g., Google’s QUIC) to get around middleboxes; (3) new congestion control mechanisms other than NewReno and Linux’ CUBIC (e.g., Google’s BBR) and finally (4) HTTP3 that is an effort to port HTTP2 over QUIC. This has coincided with the introduction of new network technologies such as emerging 5G mobile networks currently being standardized by the 3GPP, and the network softwarization movement using virtualization and containerization techniques (e.g., SDN, NFV). With the emergence of networks that offer much faster PHY bitrates and aggregate capacity (e.g., 5G, WiFi6), and with emerging applications that require much more stringent latency requirements (e.g., AR/VR/XR or automotive V2X), the need for an efficient transport layer stack – that is likely to run in the userland instead of the OS kernel – will become much more significantly highlighted.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Technical issues and challenges that arise in the transport layer with the emergence of high-speed and high-capacity networks (e.g., 5G) * Transport protocols and their performance in emergent latency-sensitive and bandwidth-consuming application use-cases (e.g., V2X communication and high-fidelity AR/VR/XR) * Design, deployment, and evaluation of state-of-the-art transport protocols (e.g., QUIC) and their congestion control mechanisms (e.g., BBR) * The performance of transport protocols in virtual environments; especially novel userland transport protocols such as QUIC * Design and evaluation of new transport layer APIs for future Internet and strategies for their deployment * Design, evaluation, deployment, and measurement studies of transport-layer security mechanisms (e.g., TLS 1.3)
Paper format and submission instructions
Submitted papers should be unpublished work and they should not be under review by any other conference or journal. They must be no more than 6 pages (IEEE two-column format, 10pt) in total including references and figures. Papers will be reviewed single-blind. Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by IFIP and submitted to IEEE Xplore Digital Library. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present the work in the workshop.
