CCNC'2004: Call for Papers

von Guenter Schaefer

please excuse if you receive multiple copies of this... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Call for Papers 2004 IEEE CONSUMER COMMUNICATIONS AND NETWORKING CONFERENCE “Consumer Networking: Closing the Digital Divide” (Precedes the CES 2004 International Consumer Electronics Show: www.cesweb.org), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA / 5-8 January, 2004 http://www.ccnc2004.org/ Sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society The first IEEE Consumer Communications and Networking Conference (CCNC'2004) will be held on 5-8 January, 2004 in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, just prior to the Consumer Electronics Show (www.cesweb.org). The demand for networked consumer systems and devices is large and growing rapidly. At home, in a car or truck, at work or at play, Internet citizens want transparent internetworking for the systems and devices that provide entertainment, information, and communications. This internetworking should be on-demand, with whomever or whatever they want, regardless of time or location. As a result, consumer networking is gaining increasing attention from industry, spawning a range of dramatically different solutions including wireless, wireline, and power line networked communications environments, each with their own strengths and special challenges to overcome. This in turn has defined the scope of consumer networking to range from body and personal area networking, to home networking and wide area networking. In the not too distant future, we will see ad hoc networking augmented with sensors sharing networked knowledge that enables devices and systems to seamlessly interact with the Internet and wide area wireless systems such as WiFi, 3G and future 4G networks. And this is just the beginning! This phenomenon, "Consumer Communications and Networking," has been attracting many researchers in diverse areas from networking to consumer electronics. This conference will present the latest approaches and technical solutions in the area of consumer networking, enabling technologies such as middleware and multimedia, and novel applications and services. The conference will include a peer-reviewed program of technical sessions, technology application panels, tutorials, and poster sessions. CCNC 2004 provides a compelling forum for formal discussion and socialization of many of these research challenges with seasoned practitioners and colleagues from both industry and academia.

RE: [ifip-tc6] IFIP Publisher

von Radford, Peter

Augusto I too support Otto's view but Guy's comments and questions ought also to be relayed to Roger Johnson. I'm sure the publications committee are looking for alternative publishers but if anyone has any ideas, they ought to pass them on to Roger. Two questions: Has anyone had any experience with "print on demand" book publishers? Have our contacts with electronic publishing come up with anything useful?

The Asia/Pacific community promoted the APNOMS (Asia-Pacific Network Operations and Management Symposium), which is an event more oriented to the research and development community in that region. Continuing the success of the second LANOMS, we will promote the third edition of LANOMS (http://www.inf.ufpr.br/lanoms) on September 4-6 2003, in Iguassu Falls, Paraná, Brazil. The symposium is a promotion of the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR), Brazil, technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society, and supported by IEEE Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management (CNOM). The main goal of the LANOMS is to create a forum more specific to the necessities of Latin America in the area of network management involving networking and telecommunication companies, academic institutions and equipment vendors. LANOMS is an event open to participants from all over the world who are interest in having, or already have, research or commercial liaisons in Latin America - one of the fastest growing regions in the world in networking. This year, we intend to increase the submissions from North America, Europe, Africa and Asia. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Integrating Intrusion Detection and Network Management - Intrusion Policy Management - Web Services Security - Business and Service Management - Management Platforms, Interoperability, Standards and Protocols - Management of Networks and Services: VPNs, Optical Networks, CATV Networks, Mobile/Wireless and Ad-Hoc Networks, Voice over IP, Transaction-Oriented Services, Electronic Commerce, Active and Programmable Networks, Sensor Networks - Management Technologies and Frameworks (Web, XML, CORBA, DEN, etc) - Management Aspects of Service Pricing, Accounting and Billing - Management of Service Level Agreements and Quality of Service - Bandwidth Brokerage - Data Warehousing and Data Mining in Management - Programmable, Mobile and Intelligent Agents in Management - Network and Systems Monitoring - Fault and Performance Management - Security Management - Configuration Management and Policy-Driven Management - Information Modeling - Traffic and Performance Management - Open-Source Management Software - Management of Grid Computing, Clusters, Peer-to-Peer Applications, and Ubiquitous Computing Environments - Operations Support Systems - Business Processes for Network and Service Management - Peer-to-peer Network Technologies for Management - Management of Distributed Systems - Case Studies and Experiences in Management Authors are invited to submit unpublished papers, which are not under review for publication elsewhere.

IEEE Infocom 2004 - Message from Conference General Chair

von Thomas Hou

July 1, 2003, the deadline for paper submission to IEEE INFOCOM 2004, to be held in Hong Kong, March 7 - 11, 2004, is rapidly approaching. The Call For Papers can be found at http://www.ieee-infocom.org/2004/. We are well aware that there is concern about SARS among some potential authors; however, all signs indicate that SARS is now under control. As you may already know, the World Health Organization lifted its travel advisory to Hong Kong and Guangdong, China last week. The number of new cases in the rest of China is also decreasing rapidly. While we continue to closely monitor the situation, be assured that we do have contingency plans. We will see what happens the rest of this year and will be prepared to reevaluate the situation in late November before the Advance Program is published. For now, we would like to reassure you all that IEEE INFOCOM 2004 will be held as planned. We encourage you to submit your work before July 1, 2003, and be considered to present your paper in a beautiful setting overlooking Hong Kong Harbor. Victor O.K. Li, General Chair, IEEE INFOCOM 2004
