Four full-day workshops are organized for this conference. Below are details about the workshops and their call for papers.
| World Class Events: Telecommunications Challenges |
Call For Papers
This workshop is a unique gathering opportunity for select industry executives, seasoned managers, expert researchers and
senior subject matter experts from sponsor organizations of world class events, telecommunication companies, and
government officials of host cities/countries to discuss the requirements and steps necessary to build and operate a "Perfect
Network" for such events. They will share experiences, plans, "do lists", and their vision to ensure a "Perfect Network".
An intense day of selected presentations and possible refreshing panel discussions will focus on how to avoid "reinventing
the wheel" every time that a city or country becomes a candidate/host for such world class events.
| Fast Configured Optical Networks |
Call For Papers
This one-day workshop aims at investigating new developments, concepts and architectures in the area of fast reconfigurable optical networks. The workshop will feature presentations of invited and regular papers from academic and industrial contributors. Authors are invited to submit technical papers on both theoretical and practical aspects of the focus of the workshop.
| Next Generation Networking Middleware |
Call For Papers
NGNM04 constituted a forum for the discussion of important innovations
and recent advances in the design and construction of Internet middleware.
Both the requirements and expectations from various perspectives
(i.e., networking, middleware and application level) were presented and
analyzed. The special issue on "Emerging Middleware for Next Generation
Networks" of Computer Communications journal complemented the success of
NGNM04. NGNM05 targets to contribute towards the identification of composite
business services running on an Internet middleware platform that allows
enterprises/networking actors to publish the services they provide, use
services available globally in a secure manner as components of a generic
middleware service, automatically compile the service description into an
executable process, to deploy and monitor the execution of such composite
processes, etc. The middleware platform will contain re-configuration and
self-repairing features to enable a composite business service to adapt
itself to changes caused by insertion or withdrawal of services, changes
in network conditions and changes in user requirements.
| Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of Computer Networks |
Mathematical models have played an important role in the understanding of computer networks. They allow to obtain insight into protocol design, and describe fundamental performance limits and trade-offs. As the the network infrastructure keeps changing and new applications are emerging, the mathematical models need to evolve as well. The workshop explores recent development in mathematical modeling and analysis of computer networks in areas such as
