August 13 - 16, 2007 Turtle Bay Resort, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA
ICCCN is one of the leading international conferences for presenting novel and fundamental advances in the fields of Computer Communications and Networks. It also serves to foster communication among researchers and practitioners working in a wide variety of scientific areas with a common interest in improving communications and networking related techniques.
ICCCN 2007 presents a number of new exciting features:
* Distinguished Invited Talks: Sixteen world-class scientists are invited to deliver Distinguished Position Talks on current status and future trends of various advanced research topics (see below for details);
* Chair Recommended Papers: A number of invited research papers with impressive outcomes on various advanced research topics or cutting-edge techniques will be presented;
* Funding Forum: Funding organization officers, such as NSF/DARPA program managers, are invited to deliver talks at the conference in order to enhance the communications between researchers and funding organizations;
* Industry Forum: Senior officers from world-leading industry giants are invited to form a panel to introduce the latest advances in industry and provide guidance for the future development foci and interests from industrial point of view;
* Research Labs Panel: A demo panel to demonstrate the latest leading results from world-class advanced research labs;
* Satellite Workshops: Five or more workshops are running in conjunction with the main conference on special topics that are complement to the main theme of the ICCCN.
* New registration policy: To encourage more submissions, each registration can be covered up to TWO accepted papers.
SCOPE:
The primary focus of the conference is on new and original research results in the areas of design, implementation, and applications of Computer Communications and Networks.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Internet Services & Applications * Broadband Networking & Protocols * Networking Algorithms & Performance Evaluation * QoS Control & Traffic Modeling * Communications & Information Theory * Optical Networking * Peer-to-Peer & Grid Networking * Network Security * Signal Processing for Communications * Computer Architecture for Networking * Wireless Communications * Broadband Wireless Access * Multimedia Communications * Pervasive Computing & Mobile Networking * Sensor & Ad-Hoc Networking * Cross-Layer Design and Optimization * Wireless & Mobile Network Architecture * Emerging Technology & Standards * Parallel & Distributed Computing
IMPORTANT DATES:
* Paper submission deadline: March 1, 2007 * Notification of acceptance: May 11, 2007 * Camera ready papers due: June 1, 2007
SUBMISSION OF MANUSCRIPTS:
Submitted manuscripts must be of length up to 6 pages unless the authors are willing to pay the over-length charges at the time of publication (any manuscripts may NOT exceed 8 pages). The manuscripts must be submitted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font). Files should be submitted in PDF format and formatted for 8.5x11-inch paper. Submitted papers may NOT have appeared in, nor be under consideration for, another journal or conference. The Program Committee reserves the right to NOT review papers that either exceed the above length specification or have been submitted or published elsewhere. Submissions must include the title, abstract, keywords, author(s) and affiliation, e-mail address(es), fax/phone number(s), and postal address(es). In case of multiple authors, indicate which author is responsible for correspondence about the submission.
REVIEW AND PUBLICATION OF MANUSCRIPTS: All submitted papers will be reviewed and judged on originality, correctness, relevance, quality of presentation, and technical strength and significance. An accepted paper must be registered and presented by one of the authors at the conference venue and must be limited to 6 pages (with an allowance of up to two extra pages at a cost of US$150 per extra page beyond 6 pages) in standard IEEE camera-ready format. Each registered author is allowed to cover up to TWO of his/her own papers.
STUDENT FORUM: We encourage submissions from students. Travel assistance may be available for students with top quality papers.
BEST PAPER AWARD: ICCCN07 plans to award one best paper and authors of the paper will be recognized at the conference.
WORKSHOPS: ICCCN07 features satellite workshops. Workshop proposals should be submitted to the workshops chair, Dr. Xiaobo Zhou at zbo@cs.uccs.edu. The details of Call for Workshop Proposals can be found at ICCCN2007 Web site.
