IFIP Networking 2006 - CFP Workshop

Please apologize if you receive multiple copies of this message =========================== CALL FOR PAPERS 2006 International Workshop "Towards the QoS Internet", To-QoS'2006 http://www.tele.pw.edu.pl/to-qos2006 University of Coimbra, Coimbra, Portugal, May 19, 2006 To be held in conjunction with "2006 IFIP Networking Conference" http://networking2006.dei.uc.pt/workshops.htm =========================== Workshop Purpose ================ Providing Quality of Service (QoS) into the Internet requires implementation at the network level a variety of mechanisms and algorithms dealing with the call and packet handling, network resource managing etc. In addition, they should operate at different time scales, from the time scale of milliseconds for handling packets in the routers up till the longer time scale, say hours, for performing some actions to manage network resources in an optimum way. Furthermore, a signaling system is extremely required to inform the network about the user-application needs. As a consequence, enhanced QoS-oriented architectures mainly based on DiffServ concept are currently investigated and tested in research networks. Anyway, to provide QoS we need to make an essential update of current Internet infrastructure. The workshop is aimed at presenting and discussing current activities in this area, including the results coming from running research projects. Detailed Scope ============== * Architectures for assuring QoS in the Internet * QoS aware applications * Enhanced Transport Protocols * QoS routing * QoS mechanisms in access and core networks * Inter-domain aspects * Classes of service * Admission Control * PHB mechanisms * Monitoring and measurement systems * Scalability * End-to-end QoS * Signaling systems Workshop Organizer ================== Wojciech Burakowski, Warsaw University of Technology, Poland Technical Program Committee =========================== Christof Brandauer, Salzburg Research Forschungsgesellschaft, Austria Torsten Braun, Technical University of Bern, Switzerland Jose Brazio, Instituto Superior Tecnico, Portugal Franco Davoli, CNIT, Italy Michel Diaz, LAAS, France Michael Ditze, University of Padeborn, Germany Olivier Dugeon, FTRD, France Markus Fiedler, Blekinge Institute of Technology, Karlskrona, Sweden Jose Enriquez Gabeiras, Telefonica I+D, Spain Udo Krieger, Otto-Friedrich Universitat Bamberg, Germany Michael Menth, University of Wuerzburg, Germany Michaela Meo, Politecnico Torino, Italy Enzo Mingozzi, University of Pisa, Italy Edmundo Monteiro, University of Coimbra, Portugal Andrzej Pach, AGH, Cracow, Poland Martin Potts, Martel, Switzerland George Prezerakos, National Technical University of Athens, Greece Stefano Salsano, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy Halina Tarasiuk, Warsaw University of Technology, Poland Armando Ferro Vázquez, E.T.S.I. de Bilbao, Spain Giorgio Ventre, Universita di Napoli, Italy Manuel Villen, Telefonica I+D, Spain Sabine Wittevrongel, Ghent University, Belgium Important dates =============== Full Paper Due: March 1, 2006 Notification of Acceptance Due: March 17, 2006 Camera-ready Paper Due: April 1, 2006 Paper submission ================ The authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original, previously unpublished, complete research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing original research as well as results of laboratory and real network trials.

Apologies for any inadvertent duplicate postings. ----------------------- ACM SenSys 2006: Call for Papers The 4th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems November 1-3, 2006 Boulder, Colorado, USA http://sensys.acm.org/2006/ Sponsored by ACM SIGCOMM, SIGMOBILE, SIGARCH, SIGOPS, SIGMETRICS and SIGBED; with support from NSF. The 4th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys) is a highly selective, single-track forum for the presentation of research results on systems issues in the area of embedded, networked sensors. Distributed systems based on networked sensors and actuators with embedded computation capabilities allow for an instrumentation of the physical world at an unprecedented scale and density, thus enabling a new generation of monitoring and control applications. This conference provides an ideal venue to address the research challenges facing the design, deployment, use, and fundamental limits of these systems. Sensor networks require contributions from many fields, from wireless communication and networking, embedded systems and hardware, distributed systems, data management, and applications, so we welcome cross-disciplinary work. We seek technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research results. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, new research results in the following areas for sensor networks: -Sensor network architecture and protocols -Distributed coordination algorithms such as localization, time synchronization, clustering, and topology control -Failure resilience and fault isolation -Energy management -Operating systems -Data, information, and signal processing -Data storage and management -Distributed actuation and control -Programming methodology -Security and privacy -Sensor network planning, provisioning, calibration and deployment -Operational experience and testbeds -Experimental methodology, including measurement, simulation, and emulation infrastructure -Analysis of real-world systems and fundamental limits -Applications -Sensor networks in unusual environments -Integration with back-end systems such as web-based information systems, process control, and enterprise software Important dates: Paper Registration and Abstract: March 30, 2006, midnight US Eastern Time Paper Submission Deadline: April 6, 2006, midnight US Eastern Time Notification of Paper Acceptance: June 29, 2006 Camera Ready Paper Copy: August 22, 2006 All deadlines are firm; we will not honor extensions. Papers must be original, unpublished work not under consideration elsewhere. For submission details, see the conference web site. Selected papers from the conference will be forwarded to the ACM Transactions on Sensor Networks for possible publication. For the first time SenSys 2006 will present a best paper/presentation award. Demos: Demonstrations showing innovative research and applications are solicited. SenSys is very interested in demonstrations of technology, platforms, and applications of wireless sensor networks. Abstracts of accepted demos will be published in the SenSys conference proceedings. Submissions from both industries and universities are encouraged. For the first time SenSys 2006 will present a best demo award for the best student demo. For submission details, see the conference web site. A call for demos with submission dates, etc., will be posted at a later point. Posters: Posters showing exiting early work on sensor networks are solicited. Areas of interest are the same as those listed in the technical call for papers. While the poster need not describe completed work, it should report on research for which at least preliminary results are available. We especially encourage submissions by students (that is, for which a student is the first author on the poster). For submission details, see the conference web site. A call for posters with submission dates, etc., will be posted at a later point. Committees: General Chair: Andrew T.
