CALL FOR PAPERS
IWAN 2000
The Second International Working Conference on Active Networks
http://www.sdl.hitachi.co.jp/iwan2000/
October 16-18, 2000
Musashino Research and Development Center, NTT
Musashino-shi, Tokyo, Japan
Sponsored by IFIP WG 6.7
In cooperation with IPSJ, IEICE
Technically Co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society
Supported by NTT, Hitachi, GMD-FOKUS
SCOPE:
Incorporating computational capabilities into the network is
expected to ease the provision of value-added services and to
accelerate network infrastructure innovation. Active Network
technologies arise in this context as the solutions for offering
a flexible, dynamically customizable and programmable network
infrastructure. Network services are expected to be dynamically
customized for particular types of applications, users or
individual packets.
As the first International Working Conference on Active Network
held in Berlin, IWAN'99 was aimed at providing the opportunity
for discussions on various views, frameworks, applications, and
implementations of the Active Network technologies. IWAN2000
follows this line, and also offers the opportunity for evaluating
this emerging technology. Reporting experience and results from
projects and trials are seen as a major goal of IWAN2000.
The scope of IWAN2000 shall include but not be limited to:
* Architectures and New Concepts for Active Networks
* Architectures for active (IP) nodes
* Platforms for the implementation of open active networking
and computing architectures
* Experiences and evaluation of the concepts and implementation
* Programmable network elements and Active Networks
* Open Management of Active Networks and generic control and
management APIs
* Security in Active Networks
* Service creation, deployment, and management across broadband
fixed and mobile Active Networks
* Implementation of Active Network Infrastructures
* Applications for Active Network Environments
* Standardization on Active Networks
INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS:
Submissions should describe original work (not submitted or
published elsewhere) and be 20 double-spaced pages (5,000 words)
or less in length. Submissions should include: title, authors,
affiliations, 150 word abstract, and list of keywords. Identify
the author responsible for correspondence, including the author's
name, position, mailing address, telephone and fax numbers, and
e-mail address. One of the authors of each accepted paper must
present the paper at IWAN2000. The proceedings of the conference
will be published by Springer-Verlag Heidelberg in the Lecture
Notes in Computer Science Series.
