Baltic Congress on Future Internet Communications (BCFIC Riga 2011)

Special session on "Space/Earth Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networking"

Riga, Latvia

February, 16-18, 2011

"Space/Earth Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networking" special session, held in conjunction with the Baltic Conference on Future Internet Communications, on February 2011 at Riga, Latvia (BCFIC Riga 2011), seeks novel ideas in the form of preliminary or work-in-progress results as well as mature research papers for Delay-/Disruption Tolerant Networks. Work-in-progress papers are appropriate indeed for the session. Such papers could be further developed with more mature results and submitted to the relevant special session of the Journal of Internet Engineering, which is scheduled for April 2011. Topics include but are not limited to:

* DTN Routing

* Reliability mechanisms

* Congestion and Storage Congestion Control

* Resource Sharing in DTN environments

* Network Coding techniques for DTNs

* Application Development

* Network management

* Error and Flow Control

* Privacy and Security of Information in DTNs

* Naming/Addressing and interoperability issues with the Internet architecture

* Experiences and Measurements from DTN testbeds

* Performance Evaluation and Metrics for DTN Research

* Performance and Design Tradeoffs for DTN Algorithms and Protocols

* DTN Architectures:

- Satellite Communications

- Deep-space Communications

- Underwater Communications

- Connectivity in Developing Countries

- Communication in Public and Private Transport Vehicles

It should also be noted that:

- A selection of the best papers will be invited for special issues in the Journal of Internet Engineering and Elsevier Adhoc Networks Journal.

- BCFIC Riga 2011 proceedings will be published in IEEE Xplore (approved) and indexed in the correspondent databases (e.g. EI-index and others).

- BCFIC Riga 2011 is Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Latvia (approved).
