CfP: Internet Pricing and Charging

von Martin Karsten

We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this announcement! Please feel free to distribute a copy of this call to those who might be interested. This CfP is also available as PDF, Postscript and ASCII from http://www.kom.e-technik.tu-darmstadt.de/~mkarsten/cfp/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue of Computer Communications Internet Pricing and Charging: Algorithms, Technology and Applications Guest Editors: Martin Karsten (Darmstadt Univ. of Technology, Germany) Peter Reichl (FTW Vienna, Austria) Burkhard Stiller (ETH Zuerich, Switzerland) PUBLICATION: WINTER 2002 With the advent of differentiated Internet services, both at the transport as well as at the application layer, the need for differentiated pricing and efficient charging options has become apparent. Within the emerging area of Network Economy, an explicit view on the integration of technological and economic aspects for Internet services provisioning is essential for achieving a better understanding of today's dramatic changes and close-ups between Internet technology and economics in the field of networking. The future evolution of the Internet will crucially depend on the development of sound business models and an economic understanding of technological alternatives. Therefore, it is increasingly important to develop an integrated view of technical proposals and their economic implications, and vice versa. Another important research field is given by the potential for economy-based market management of networks and services. This special issue of Computer Communicationsis seeking new and unpublished contributions addressing issues on Internet Pricing and Charging including, but not limited to: * Internet Charging Technology * Economy-based Policy Management Mechanisms * Internet Pricing and Tariffing * Economy-based Resource Management and Congestion Control * Internet Accounting and Billing Tasks * Internet Service Level Agreements and their Management * Security Mechanisms for Charging Systems * Internet Service Characterizations * ISP Business Models * Internet Bandwidth Exchange Models * Application Service Provider Models The main goal of this special issue is to provide a forum for the most recent results on technology and algorithms for pricing and charging Internet services and their economic effects in an open Internet services market. IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for submissions: June 1 2002 Notification of acceptance: September 1 2002 Publication: Winter 2002 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Guidelines on how to present your paper are given at http://www.elsevier.nl/homepage/authors (Step 2).

CALL FOR PAPERS ACM SIGCOMM 2002 Conference 19-23 August 2002, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACTS: January 25, 2002 The SIGCOMM 2002 conference seeks papers describing significant research contributions to the field of computer and data communication networks. Authors are invited to submit full papers concerned with the theory, practice, and evaluation of networks. We are especially interested in innovative and thought-provoking ideas across a wide range of topics related to networking. Areas of interest include: o Network protocols o Algorithms, protocols, and systems for routing, switching, and signaling o Network resource management and sharing, quality of service, operating system support for networking o Wireless, mobile, and pervasive networking, networking with specialized devices and sensors o Experimental and measurement results from operational networks and protocols o Network management, traffic engineering, and real-world experience o Network fault-tolerance and reliability, debugging, and troubleshooting o Peer-to-peer networking architectures, overlay-based network services and applications, novel distributed applications and middleware o Systems and protocols for video, audio, telephony, and games o Web protocols and systems, content distribution networks o Network security, vulnerabilities, and defenses o Programmable network architectures and infrastructure o Lessons about network scalability, insights and models of the structure and behavior of communication networks NEW THIS YEAR: SIGCOMM 2002 solicits submissions of "position papers" articulating high-level architectural visions, describing challenging future directions, or critiquing current design wisdom. Accepted position papers will be presented at the conference and appear in the proceedings. In addition, SIGCOMM 2002 is open to proposals for panel discussions on timely and controversial topics. Panel proposals should include the topic and motivation for the panel, the names of the panel chair and panelists, and an outline of the format of the panel discussion.
