SCOPE ------------------------------------------------------
Telecommunication infrastructures play a vital role in modern society. Advances in the range of network service offerings, performance, quality of service, security, and ubiquity continue to flourish, despite global economy fluctuations. Access to experimental infrastructures for real-life applications by specific user communities benefits all of the stakeholders involved: the end users, because of the first-hand evaluation of the provided services, the researchers and infrastructure experimenters, because of the knowledge gained from hands-on study and analysis, and the service providers, because of the business exploitation of the network. The goal of TridentCom is to create a forum where telecommunication networks researchers, vendors, providers and users can exchange ideas on past experience, requirements, needs, and visions for future establishment of such infrastructures. It showcases experimental activities, such as testing, verification, integration, measurement, and deployment, which are pivotal to achieving next generation communications.
PAPER SUBMISSION ------------------------------------------------------ Prospective authors are invited to submit high quality papers as well as demonstration proposals reporting on all aspects of test bed and research infrastructure operation and management, including, but not limited to:
* Next Generation Internet Test beds * Next Generation Wireless Network Test beds * Next Generation Optical Network Test beds * Ubiquitous Network Test beds * Wireless Sensor Test beds * Test bed Operation & Management for User Communities * Test bed Operation & Management for Research Communities * Test bed Cooperation & Integration * Innovative Measurements Methodologies & Tools * Traffic Measurements Test beds * Software Tools to Support Distributed Test beds / Virtual Laboratories * Management of Massive Databases of Experimental Data * Knowledge & Technology Transfer Procedures * Security (AAA) Testing on Open Test beds * Social Impacts of Infrastructures * Infrastructures for Real-Life Applications * Business Models for Infrastructure Budgeting & Planning * Infrastructure Renting & Pricing Policies * Vendors & Providers Partnerships
Submit full papers of up to 10 pages, including references, figures and tables, and formatted according to the IEEE 8.5" x 11" proceedings format.
Detailed submission instructions are available at www.tridentcom.org.

******************************************************************* Call for Technical Demonstration at TridentCom 2007 http://www.tridentcom.org/
The 3rd International IEEE/Create-Net Conference on Testbeds and Research Infrastructures for the Development of Networks and Communities will take place in Orlando, Florida, USA, during February 5-8, 2007 and it will include a session for live system demonstrations.
This is an opportunity to feature mature systems or innovative prototypes that show how applied research results are implemented. We also encourage submission of a demo that has already been described in the published literature in sufficient details. In addition, the demo should be attractive, address an application of broad interest in such a way that it can be appreciated by a diverse audience, and clearly show the contributions to the conference themes.
Next Generation Internet Testbeds Next Generation Wireless Network Testbeds Next Generation Optical Network Testbeds Ubiquitous Network Testbeds Wireless Sensor Testbeds Testbed Operation & Management for User Communities Testbed Operation & Management for Research Communities Testbed Cooperation & Integration Innovative Measurements Methodologies & Tools Traffic Measurements Testbeds Software Tools to Support Distributed Testbeds / Virtual Laboratories Management of Massive Databases of Experimental Data Knowledge & Technology Transfer Procedures Security (AAA) Testing on Open Testbeds Social Impacts of Infrastructures Infrastructure Real-Life Applications Business Models for Infrastructure Budgeting & Planning Infrastructure Renting & Pricing Policies Vendors & Providers Partnerships
Demo proposals should consist of:
1. - Title and Description of the Demo, A document (1- 4 pages) that should summarize and possibly provide references to previously published work, or provides sufficient details regarding the underlying technologies. In either case, the document should describe how the system is used to solve practically important problems, and may contain discussion of system implementation, deployment, or case studies of use in the field. In case of mature work, please include some novel (i.e., unpublished) aspect of the work so it can be included in the proceedings.
2. - Infrastructure Requirements, Itemize any equipment or facilities that you will require for your system demonstration
3- Biographical Sketch of the Presenter(s).
4 - All demonstrations should be supported by a poster during the conference, showing both the general set-up of the demo as well as illustrating the chief ideas of the solution.
Important Dates Submission of demo September 30, 2006 Notification of acceptance November 30, 2006
