There is also increasing demand for solutions which provide assured levels of service quality. All of these require novel paradigms, models and architectures for realising integrated end-to-end service management rather than managing network elements in isolation. Providing scalable Quality of Service (QoS) while maintaining fairness, along with secure and optimal network resource management are key challenges for the future Internet. These challenges apply to both fixed and wireless networks. The IFIP/IEEE International Conference on Management of Multimedia Networks and Services will hold its sixth annual meeting from September 7th to September 10th, 2003 in Belfast, Northern Ireland. MMNS provides an intimate setting for discussion and debate. In just 6 years, MMNS has established itself as one of the premier conferences with a focus on the management of multimedia networks and services. The conference objective is to bring together researchers working in all facets of network and service management as applied to broadband networks and multimedia services. MMNS deals with all aspects of designing, developing and deploying networked multimedia systems and it serves as a forum for the dissemination of state-of-the-art research and development results. MMNS 2003 will also include panel sessions in which experts offer their observations and opinions about current hot topics. The keynote speaker will be Professor Ian Akyildiz, Georgia Institute of Technology who will present a vision of future interplanetary network architectures. Professor Derek McAuley, head of Intel's recently formed laboratory at Cambridge, UK, will describe some of the new research being undertaken on global overlay networks and applications. The program committee is soliciting original papers describing research in the area of management of multimedia networks and services. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * Active multimedia network management * Ad-hoc and Sensor Networks * Augmented and Virtual Reality Networks * Billing and Accounting * Cable multimedia network management * Content distribution internetworking * Deployment of multimedia services * Distributed multimedia service management * End-to-end IP multimedia network and service management * IP Video, streaming, interactive video service management * Middleware support for management * Multimedia network traffic engineering and optimization * Multimedia traffic management * Multimedia content protection * Multimedia session management * Multi-point, multicast services management * Network management models and architectures * Network programmability for multimedia services * Optical multimedia network management * Policy-based management for multi-media services * Provisioning of multimedia networks and services * QoS in WLANs * QoS management * Resource, performance and fault management * Security and Authentication * VoIP service management * Web Services * Wireless and mobile multimedia network management Papers must be submitted electronically in postscript or PDF format.

Election of the TC6 Chairman
by Andre Danthine 27 Jun '03

27 Jun '03

Dear TC6 Member, In Budapest, it was decided to start the procedure for the election of a new TC6 chairperson. We will follow the procedure initiated in White Plains for the 1997 election and improved for the 2000 election. The starting point of the procedure is to establish the list of eligible people taking into account the first three conditions: - national representative (Bylaws Condition) - attendance to at least one TC6 meeting among Saariselka, Lisboa and Hungary - conference organiser. Here is this list by alphabetical order of the country represented Danthine Andre Sousa Jose Neuman de Boyanov Kiril Mason Lorne Slavik Jan Iversen Villy Hara Veikko Tohme Samir Spaniol Otto Dibuz Sarolta Prati Giancarlo Saito Tadao Niemegeers I. Aagesen Fin Grzech Adam Puigjaner Ramon Khakhar Dipak Rudin Harry Radford Peter Chapin Lyman Iyengar Arun. Following the procedure, I ask all the people of this list to confirm their willingness to stay on the ballot. Staying on the ballot means, of course, a commitment - to attend all the meetings of TC6 and - to participate regularly in the Council and General Assembly meetings. In order to avoid any problem, I invite also all the people on this list who are not willing to stay on the ballot to clearly indicate their position. When the list of willing eligible people will be ready, we will start the last step before the vote: each candidate will have to prepare - a short CV with an emphasis to the TC6 related activities - a statement of interest for the TC6 Chairmanship postion. Why do they want to be chairman, what activities they intend to continue, to discontinue, to create, what will change in TC6 under their leadership. - a statement about the way they see the relationship between them (as TC6 chairman) and the Council and the General Assembly. These information will have to be sent directly to me. I will sort all these informations and prepare the final document which will allow each TC6 member to cast his vote for one of the candidate. If none of them get more than 50% of the votes, a second vote will take place with only the two candidates who received the greatest support on the first vote. The people eligible to vote are the national representatives and the WG Chairmen (one vote by WG). The vote will be carried by email with the help of the IFIP secretariat for counting the vote.
