Networked Group Communication 2002 (Call for Papers)
by Brian Levine 18 Apr '02

18 Apr '02

My apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ------------------------------------------------------------- Fourth International Workshop on Networked Group Communication October 23-25, 2002 Boston, Massachusetts, USA Organized in cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM and COST 264 http://signl.cs.umass.edu/ngc2002 The aim of NGC is to allow researchers and practitioners to present the design and implementation techniques for networked group communication. The focus of the workshop is on peer-to-peer, multicast, and networked group communication, ranging from the link layer, through routing, and reliability and traffic control, right up to session and application level control mechanisms. This workshop is the fourth of this international event. The first workshop was in Pisa, Italy, in November 1999; the second was in Stanford, USA, in November 2000; the third was in London, UK, in November 2001. We wish to distinguish NGC as a forum for novel and creative research projects and discussions on the future of networked group communication in academia and industry. To this end, NGC invites you to submit five-page extended abstracts. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to present at the workshop and publish full-length versions of their papers in the workshop proceedings. The extended abstract abstract should represent the paper in "short form." Authors should include full references, figures and significant results when available. The submissions will be judged on significance, originality, clarity, relevance, and correctness. The conference will be held at Holiday Inn, Brookline in Boston, MA. It will start with two half-day tutorials on October 23, 2002. The technical program will include a keynote and invited talks on October 24-25, 2002. Depending on interest level, and suitable proposed topics, there may also be a panel discussion as well as a poster session. Authors are invited to submit papers on any issue related to networked group communication, including: * peer-to-peer applications * applications and services enabled through multicast * wireless and mobile communication * multiplayer games * measurement studies * content distribution * network security * application layer multicast * economic models * novel group communication architectures * routing, naming, address allocation * group and session management techniques * QoS and network engineering * scalability: overheads, stability, analysis, experiments * adaption and congestion control for group communication * heterogeneous group communication * reliable and semi-reliable protocols Important Dates: Paper Registration and Submission: May 17, 2002 Notification: July 24, 2002 Camera Ready copy: August 15, 2002 Conference Dates: October 23-25, 2002 Committee: Technical Co-Chairs: Mostafa Ammar (Georgia Tech) Brian Neil Levine (University of Massachusetts Amherst) General Chair: John Byers (Boston University) Technical Committee: Kevin Almeroth UC Santa Barbara Samrat Bhattacharjee Univ.

The first MobiHoc was held in 2000 in Boston, Massachusetts, as a workshop affiliated with the MobiCom conference also sponsored by SIGMOBILE. Since then, MobiHoc has become a separate symposium, held in 2001 in Long Beach, California, and now in 2002 in Lausanne, Switzerland. Topics of interest include all areas of mobile and wireless ad hoc net working (above the physical layer), ad hoc computing, and sensor networks. PAPERS: There will be approximately seven technical paper sessions on a wide range of ad hoc networking topics. The list of accepted papers can be found at http://www.acm.org/sigmobile/mobihoc/2002/program.html. Paper topics include routing, sensor networks, scalability, multicast, energy consumption, TCP, and priority scheduling. POSTERS: There will also be a poster session, describing innovative and recent research on ad hoc networks. TUTORIALS: This year there is a new component to MobiHoc: technical tutorials. On June 9th there will be two tutorials. "Design and Modeling of Medium Access Control Protocols for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks" will be held in the morning, and "Routing & Multicasting in Ad hoc Networks" will be held in the afternoon. REGISTRATION: The symposium is open for registration. Register by April 22, 2002 to get the early registration rates: http://www.acm.org/sigmobile/mobihoc/2002/registration.html

Email validity test results
by Otto Spaniol 16 Apr '02

16 Apr '02

Dear all, I owe you the result of the email validity test, i.e. time of reaction of TC6 delegates with respect to messages sent via the group address <ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de>. The ?email validity test" message was sent out on 28 March, 08.56 h GMT + 1 The responses came in as follows: Ahmed M Al-Naamany 28 March, 09.14 h GMT + 1 Lorne Mason 28 March, 09.28 h GMT + 1 Vilas Wuwongse 28 March, 09.28 h GMT + 1 Yutaka Takahashi 28 March, 09.36 h GMT + 1 Peter Radford 28 March, 09.45 h GMT + 1 Volker Tschammer 28 March, 09.54 h GMT + 1 Adam Grzech 28 March, 10.07 h GMT + 1 Dipak Khakhar 28 March, 10.20 h GMT + 1 Samir Tohme 28 March, 10.39 h GMT + 1 Jan Slavik 28 March, 10.44 h GMT + 1 Herbert Leitold 28 March, 13.04 h GMT + 1 Guy Leduc 28 March, 14.01 h GMT + 1 Lyman Chapin 28 March, 15.35 h GMT + 1 Koos Koen 28 March, 15.47 h GMT + 1 Arun Iyengar 28 March, 16.03 h GMT + 1 Olli Martikainen 28 March, 19.30 h GMT + 1 Harry Rudin 28 March, 21.07 h GMT + 1 Guy Pujolle 28 March, 22.16 h GMT + 1 Hu Dao-Yuan 29 March, 01.18 h GMT + 1 Finn Arve Aagesen 29 March, 10.22 h GMT + 1 Ramon Puigjaner 30 March, 14.32 h GMT + 1 Farouk Kamoun 01 April, 10.54 h GMT + 2 (Summer time) Tadao Saito 02 April, 06.42 h GMT + 2 Sarolta Dibuz 02 April, 12.15 h GMT + 2 Harry Dutton 03 April, 01.46 h GMT + 2 Augusto Casaca 03 April, 10.55 h GMT + 2 Harmen van As 03 April, 15.46 h GMT + 2 Concerning the best reaction times: First of all I believed that I should eliminate the time zone differences. However, this would be somewhat unfair for the following reason: - At the time of sending, there were office hours in Africa, Asia, and Europe. Thus everybody had a chance to react immediately. The only delegates who might have had problems with the working hours are those in Australia and in America. Harry Dutton from Australia came in very late, and for both Lyman Chapin and Arun Iyengar we might subtract 6 hours (which would bring them to ranks 2 and 8 in the abovementioned list); this subtraction again would not be totally fair with respect to those who got the message after being several hours in their office. The prizes for the fast responses of delegates who were present in Saariselkae and who don't live neither in EUROland nor in other and EU countries nor in Switzerland have been given to: Ahmed (he was not really there but on the list of delegates who were supposed to attend, he hato cancel his participation at the latest minutes; anyway he was the fastest and he will receive the first prize - not a beer but a collection of EURO coins - in Portugal), Jan, Lyman, Arun, Tadao, and Sarolta. Best regards Otto
