Call for Papers

3rd IFIP/IEEE International Workshop on
Bandwidth on Demand and Federation Economics (BoD 2010)
http://www.csg.uzh.ch/events/bod10/

In conjunction with IEEE/IFIP NOMS 2010

"Scalable and Economic Bandwidth Allocation in the Future Internet"


Scope

The rapid technological progress in the area of network
virtualization, mainly driven by new optical fiber technology and
virtual router infrastructures, is generating a new trend for the
provisioning of bandwidth on demand. The support of fully
decentralized bandwidth allocation and network management schemes
shows further advantages in terms of robustness and scalability for
large-scale systems.

However, suitable business models for such novel bandwidth services
have not yet evolved, despite of simple time-based charging methods
for different bandwidth levels. This is especially so in the case of
federations among multiple virtual network providers where more than
one administrative domain are involved in the provision of a single
service. Such federated infrastructures include neighborhood wireless
mesh networks and experimental facilities like GENI or PlanetLab,
which require different economic models than the ones proposed for ISP
interconnection and the Grid to capture the whole complexity of this
novel type of multi-tier resource sharing economy.

The third BoD workshop follows the first and second successful
workshops which were held in conjunction with IEEE Globecom 2006 and
IEEE/IFIP NOMS 2008, as well as a Dagstuhl seminar held in 2009. The
workshop seeks original papers, both from industry as well as
academia, dealing with the technical, economic, and regulatory
dimensions of bandwidth allocation in fixed and wireless networks. The
workshop will include presentations and discussions of accepted
technical papers, as well as invited talks.

Topics of Interest

The workshop seeks original papers in the following areas that serve
as basis for Bandwidth-on-Demand (BoD):

* Scalable bandwidth allocation in optical, wireless, and Internet
domains
* Network management schemes for BoD
* Fully decentralized and peer-to-peer-based bandwidth allocation
* Economic and cost-effective bandwidth allocation
* Energy-efficient bandwidth allocation
* Incentive mechanisms and bandwidth allocation policies
* Economic management of network resources
* Bandwidth provisioning on demand
* Provisioning of networks on demand
* Market-based allocation mechanisms such as auctions
* Secure and robust network provisioning
* Economic studies in carrier and service provider networks
* Market and business models
* Cost and revenue models
* Market liquidity aspects
* Game theoretical bandwidth allocation models
* Network allocation in test-bed infrastructures like GENI or
PlanetLab
* The economics of federation and policy design
* Network provisioning in non-profit systems like neighborhood
networks
* Peer-to-peer Internet access sharing
* Industrial developments of new network technologies like network
virtualization
* Bandwidth allocation in virtual and overlay networks
* Bandwidth allocation in wireless mesh networks
* Technical improvements in transport and data networks
* Legislative and regulatory issues
* Legal issues of bandwidth allocation

Paper Submissions

Papers must be written in English and will be subject to a full review
process. Papers are solicited as full papers of no more than 8 pages
or short papers (position statements or work-in-progress papers) of no
more than 4 pages in IEEE two-column format. Papers exceeding these
limits, multiple submissions, and self-plagiarized papers will be
rejected without further review.

Submissions must be in PDF and will be handled using the JEMS
system. Please refer to http://www.csg.uzh.ch/events/bod10/ or contact
bod10@lists.ifi.uzh.ch for additional information. Those papers
accepted will be published in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
