------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CALL FOR PAPERS

CloudNet 2012 The 2012 International Conference on Cloud Networking Technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society

November 28-30, 2012 University Pierre and Marie Curie, Paris, France http://phare.lip6.fr/cloudnet12 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first International Conference on Cloud Networking (CloudNet 2012) will be held in Paris, France, in November 2012. Cloud Networking has emerged as a promising direction for cost-efficient and reliable service delivery across data communication networks. The dynamic location of service facilities and the virtualization of hardware and software elements are stressing the communication network and protocols, especially when data-centers are interconnected through the Internet. Although the "computing" aspects of Cloud technologies have been largely investigated, lower attention has been devoted to the "networking" aspects. The 2012 Conference on Cloud Networking (CloudNet 2012) precisely addresses these aspects.

Conference topics include (but are not limited to):

• Datacenter Network Management and Reliability • Distributed Datacenter Architectures • Internet Routing of Cloud data • Ethernet Routing: TRILL, Shortest Path Bridging, Data Center Bridging, L2LSP, OpenFlow • Cloud Traffic Characterization and Measurements • Intra-Cloud vs Inter-Cloud Management • Cloud Traffic Engineering and Control-Plane Architectures • Security, Privacy, Confidentiality in Cloud networking • Network on the fly, Virtual Control, Virtual Radio, Isolation • Unified User and Machine Mobility Management • Virtualization of Wireless Equipment • Mobile Cloud Networking • Storage Area Networks, Optical Interconnect, Fiber Channel • Content and Service Distribution

Supporting IEEE Communications Society Technical Committees:

• Cloud Communications and Networking Ad-Hoc TC • Communications Software TC (TCCS) • Computer Communications TC (TCCC) • Internet TC (ITC) • Network Operations and Management TC (CNOM)

Paper submission ------------------------

Authors are invited to submit technical papers presenting original, unpublished research, not currently under review elsewhere. All submissions should be written in English with a maximum length of 5 single-spaced, double-column pages and should follow IEEE paper templates.
