The High-Speed Networks Workshop (HSN 2011) will be a half-day event focusing

on the latest research and developments in the high-speed networking and

applications areas. Indeed, advances in a myriad of backbone technologies have

now delivered unprecedented bandwidth scalabilities for users. As a result, the

focus for many has evolved towards leveraging these solutions to build new

architectures and offer novel dynamic services across heterogeneous network

regions. In particular, in the core transport area, the theory of network architecture,

experimental infrastructure, terabit-level transport protocols, traffic engineering, and

network provisioning still remain a challenge. Meanwhile, evolving applications are

posing new provisioning challenges in diverse areas, such as energy, banking,

defense, medicine, and emergency. As a result, this workshop is designed to

address these very challenges and its location in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM

2011 will enable many broader interactions and discussions amongst the participants.

_TOPICS OF INTEREST _The topics covered by the workshop include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Innovative and agile terabits network architectures - 100 Gbps technologies (Ethernet, OTN, etc) - Ultra high-speed routing and signaling protocols - Ultra high-speed cyber security systems - Scalable fault-tolerant switching and routing - Dynamic provisioning in ultra high-speed optical networks - Control and signaling plane technologies (GMPLS, UNI, NNI, etc.) - Design of high speed network architectures - Experimental deployment of high-capacity optical networks - Traffic engineering for ultra high-speed networks - Protection and fast recovery support in ultra high-speed networks - Methodologies and development tools for high-speed networks - Diagnosing high-speed networks - Carrier Ethernet enterprise services and virtual private networks - Optical-wireless integration - Prototyping high-end applications for ultra high-speed environments - Long distances data transfers and performance issues - Remote visualizations and tele-instrumentations - Distributed high-speed access to supercomputing facilities, - Remote computational monitoring and steering - High-performance network middleware - High performance computing, workflow management - End-to-end service guarantees in ultra high-speed networks

_PAPER SUBMISSION _Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a full paper (6 pages) for review. Only

original papers that have not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere

will be considered. The submission process is carried through EDAS conference

management system (http://edas.info/). These submissions should follow the IEEE INFOCOM formatting guidelines, templates for which are available at: http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/authors/authors_jour....
