Call for Abstracts

The CoNext Student Workshop is a forum for graduate students around
the world to interact with their peers, publicize and exchange
feedback, share experiences, make contacts, and learn about networking
problems that other students from around the world are working
on. Students will not only learn about other students' work, but also
meet and interact with established networking researchers, who will
participate in the workshop as panelists and organizers. Students will
have the opportunity to establish connections in the networking
community and help shape its future.  The workshop will be a day-long
program organized in a way that promotes interaction and lively
discussion.

The CoNext 2006 Student Workshop organizing committee is encouraging
the submission of abstracts describing ongoing thesis research in all
areas of computer networking and data communications (for a list of
topics, please refer to the CoNext 2006 call for papers). Student
authors are asked to submit 1-2 page abstracts before the deadline
below, using the CoNext 2006 format. Please visit
