Dear all The 1st IEEE Workshop on Below IP Networking in conjunction with Globecom 2009, on Nov 30th, 2009 in Honolulu, Hawaii is organised to bring to industrial and academic researchers on new networking solutions residing on Layer 2 or otherwise below the IP layer. These include for example Carrier Grade Ethernet and different label switched technologies.

WS site can be found at http://www.bipn.org/. Globecom 2009 site is: http://www.ieee-globecom.org/

Important dates: + Full paper submission: July 23rd 2009 + Notification of acceptance: August 28th 2009 + Final camera ready papers due: September 10th, 2009

Papers that present work, validated by experimentation, simulations, or analysis, as well as position papers and papers discussing and comparing concepts, architectures and interfaces are solicited, on the topics including, but not limited to

* intra and inter carrier path computation and routing below IP * intra and inter carrier protection and restoration below IP * intra and inter carrier OAM * below IP solutions for intra domain and inter carrier traffic engineering * new forwarding technologies * connection oriented and connectionless network services using packet transport * identities and addressing for enhanced Ethernet networks * mobility issues and mobility solutions for packet transport networks * scalability and implementation complexity of below IP networking solutions * quality of service in packet transport networks * network discovery below IP * IP vs End-2-End Ethernet * co-existence and interoperation of routed IP and routed Ethernet * positioning of native enhanced Ethernet against IP, MPLS, GMPLS and MPLS-TP * techno-economics of transport Ethernet, MPLS-TP and Internet by Ethernet
