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.

Dear colleagues, that is to notify you that, due to various requests, we have decided to extend the submission deadline for the Fifth International Workshop on Network Group Communication NGC'03 and the Third International Workshop on Charging and QoS Technology ICQT'03 (both of them colocated at Munich, Sept 16-19, 2003). The deadline has been extended until April 10, 2003. You are encouraged to register submissions by April 7, 2003. Please find the Final Call for Papers enclosed. For further information and submission guidelines we refer to www.ngc2003.org. Best regards B. Stiller G. Carle M. Karsten P. Reichl NGC'03/ICQT'03 Program Co-chairs ------------------------------------------------------------------- Please distribute to interested people. Apologies for any duplicates. Please note the extended submission deadline by April 10, 2003. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Final Call for Papers Fifth International Workshop on Networked Group Communications (NGC'03) Organized by UniBwM and COST 264 in cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM co-located with the Third International Workshop on Internet Charging and QoS Technology (ICQT'03) Group Communications and Charges - Technology and Business Models September 16-19, 2003 University of Federal Armed Forces Munich (UniBw Munich), Germany URL: http://www.ngc2003.org/ Scope ----- Communications by technical means forms the major interconnection for distributed electronic applications, ranging from business processes to entertainment.

CfP SIGCOMM 2003 Workshop MoMeTools

von Hartmut Ritter

Call for Papers WORKSHOP ON MODELS, METHODS AND TOOLS FOR REPRODUCIBLE NETWORK RESEARCH (MoMeTools) in conjunction with SIGCOMM 2003, Karlsruhe, Germany 25 August 2003 ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS Compared with other scientific areas such as experimental physics, network research appears significantly less mature concerning methodology. Internet research is affected by models that sometimes are poorly suited to the problem under investigation, by lack of understanding of properties and limitations of the models used, and by tools that have various limitations and that are poorly integrated. While each of the methods analysis, simulation, emula-tion, testbed experiments and Internet-wide experiments have their own particular strengths and shortcomings, typically only one of these methods is used to investigate a particular problem. Certain weaknesses of the chosen methods can have unwanted implications on the results and deductions made from them. There appears to be insufficient comparison or adjustment between results obtained by different methods. The goal of this workshop is to critically assess the current models, methods and tools for identifying shortcomings of the state-of-the-art, and to discuss approaches for improvements and innovation. The workshop aims for sharing knowledge about how to apply today's tools most successfully, and for generating a common understanding about what is needed for net-work research to progress more rapidly and to ensure widely reproducible results. The workshop solicits submissions that improve our understanding of the current state-of-the art, and that help to identify improved models, methods and tools. TOPICS OF INTEREST Topics of interest could include, but are not limited to: - Reproducibility of experimental network research - Investigation of scaling effects - Common code basis for simulation and implementation - Mathematical methods for error assessment - Examples and review of commonly observable mistakes - Simulation vs. emulation vs. testbed experiments - Comparison of practical, analytical and theoretical evaluations - Benchmarking and measurement techniques - Tools for visualization of network behaviour; usage and assessment of tools - Generation of realistic network topologies and traffic patterns Accepted papers will appear in workshop proceedings published by ACM SIGCOMM and will be placed in the ACM Digital Library. Following the workshop, a report on the discussions and conclusions of the workshop will be published. WHAT AND HOW TO SUBMIT The workshop solicits the following types of submissions: 1) Full papers, 2) Position papers on potentially controversial or provocative topics, and 3) Tool demonstration papers. These will be presented in a practical session consisting of short presentations combined with live demonstrations of tools. The corresponding papers undergo a review process. For illustration purposes of a tool, it is also possible to submit an online video clip in addition to a papers. Papers should be no longer than 14 pages; shorter and concise papers are also highly welcome. Papers should not be anonymized. See the submission webpage (not yet available) for full submission requirements in the near future. For any questions please contact MoMeTools(a)tm.uka.de.
