Call for Papers
16th IEEE Workshop on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks
LANMAN 2008
September, 3-6, 2008
Cluj-Napoca, Transylvania, Romania
http://www.ieee-lanman.org/
The IEEE LAN/MAN Workshop continues its tradition as a leading forum
for discussing the latest technical advances in networking in the
local and metropolitan areas. The workshop will focus on three broad
areas that are currently experiencing significant change and
innovation. First, Local and Metro Networking, including the LANMAN
mainstay of access and metropolitan networks, which remains ever
evolving as it aims to meet the challenge of large scale and
ubiquitous access and usage; But also enterprise and home networking
where the distinction between data, voice and media continues to blur
as networks carry a variety of existing and new applications. Indeed,
LANMAN's second focus area is Applications at the Edge, which seek to
exploit edge network evolution. This includes reincarnations of
traditional applications, such as IPTV and VoIP, as well as
applications newly enabled by advances in edge networking, such as
peer-to-peer, storage, gaming, ambient-technology, and wearable
computing. Our third focus area is Wireless Networking. Wireless
networks are more complex and vulnerable than their wired
counterpart. Furthermore, the interaction of different layers and
technologies create challenging situations that cannot be foreseen
during the design and testing stages of technology development. It is
therefore critical to perform comprehensive empirical studies in a
wide -range of production environments to uncover deficiencies and
identify possible optimizations and extensions. LANMAN seeks both
theoretical and experimental contributions to these
areas. Single-track presentations are planned to stimulate technical
exchange among researchers and practitioners with a broad interest in
networking. We expect the workshop to be a forum for discussion of new
and interdisciplinary ideas on new architectures, paradigms, concepts,
and economic and service models. Novel and speculative ideas are
particularly encouraged. Furthermore, we would like to encourage
studies based on measurements from real-life networks and testbeds.
Extended abstracts are solicited on any LANMAN topic including, but not
limited to, the following:
* Broadband Wireless Access, including WiMAX
* WiFi: roaming services, Architectures & Performance
* Metropolitan & Residential Networks and Architectures including
Ethernet in the First Mile, EPONs, FTTx etc.
* IPTV, video delivery and applications
* SANs and Storage over MANs
* IEEE 802 standards
* Optical WDM networks based on packet, burst, and flow switching
* RFid protocols & performance
* Topology adaptation, reconfigurability, routing
* Network management related to Edge Networks
* Heterogeneous Wireless and Ad-Hoc Networks
* Ubiquitous wireless, wired and remote access
* Adaptive wireless networks including cognitive radios
* Measurement, modeling and performance evaluation
* Cross layer QoS, dynamic bandwidth allocation, capacity placement/
provisioning
* Network reliability and survivability
* Network security
* Pricing, multi-vendor interoperability
* LAN and MAN based applications (gaming, distributed computing,
media distribution to and in the home, enterprise applications, ambient
technology, wearable-computing)
* Impact of sensors everywhere including homes
The 16th LAN/MAN workshop will be held from September 3rd to 6th, 2008
in dynamic growing city Cluj-Napoca, capital of Transylvania,
North-Western part of Romania. The technical interactions at the
workshop will be enhanced by the numerous activities and sightseeing
possibilities in the famous Dracula's land area.
Paper submission, review and publication: Please submit a 4-6 page
extended abstract, including figures and tables. All abstracts must
be electronically submitted in PDF according to the guidelines in the
workshop website http://www.ieee-lanman.org
The proceedings will be published by IEEE Xplore and will include the
final version of the Extended Abstract of up to 6 pages. Selected
papers will be directed to a magazine or journal publication after the
workshop.
Posters: You may submit also a 2-page extended abstract, including figures
and tables for a Poster session. All abstracts must be electronically
submitted in PDF according to the guidelines in the workshop website
