ReARCH 2010
Workshop on Re-Architecting the Internet
http://conferences.sigcomm.org/co-next/2010/Workshops/REARCH/
(Held in conjunction with CoNEXT 2010)
November 30, 2010
Philadelphia, USA
The organizing committee is delighted to invite you to ReArch '10,
co-located with CoNEXT 2010 in Philadelphia, USA.
Motivation
----------
The Internet architecture has been remarkably successful in allowing a
planet-scale internetwork to form. However, this architecture is
losing its original simplicity and transparency as new classes of
applications, business models, security mechanisms, scalability
enablers and operational and management requirements give rise to
point solutions that extend the architecture without regards to its
original design principles.
Although these developments are necessary in the short term to allow
the Internet to continue to operate under the present economical,
technical and social conditions, in combination, they have
significantly reduced the potential for longer-term evolution of the
Internet architecture. This loss of flexibility is already being felt
as the number of Internet nodes grows by another order of magnitude.
ReArch'10 - the third instance of this workshop since its very
successful debut at CONeXT 2008 - will discuss the underlying problems
of the Internet architecture and protocols and debate how we might fix
them in a way that regains us the original architectural simplicity
and clarity of the Internet for another 30+ years.
This workshop solicits original, high-quality papers that analyze and
discuss ideas for a new Internet architecture, including specific
improvements to current Internet protocols, especially at the
internetworking, transport and application layers, new internetworking
components that integrate into the existing architecture and ideas for
clean-slate internetworking architectures.
As an experiment for the 2010 workshop, we encourage submissions that
identify the core of an architectural disagreement between the
co-authors, perhaps in point-counterpoint style. To be accepted, such
papers must meet the same quality criteria as traditional papers. If
more than one co-author of such a paper can attend the workshop, a
panel format will be used. Otherwise, one co-author will be expected
to speak for both sides of the argument.
Topics
------
ReArch'10 covers all aspects related to the current and future
Internet architecture including, but not limited to, the following
impact:
* New networking paradigms
* New architecture proposals and their implications for research and operations
* New protocols to address specific architectural limitations
* Studies of interactions between stakeholders of the Internet and the
architecture itself
* Design principles and interfaces to accommodate the diverse
interests of stakeholders in the architecture
* Principles of evolving future architectures
* New business and policy models
* Tension between security and evolvability of an architecture
* Novel approaches to traditional networking problems such as traffic
engineering, congestion control, availability, routing, mobility, etc.
* Measurements and analyses that characterize and quantify
architectural limitations
* Discussions on interworking with the existing Internet and deployability
Papers that present interesting, fresh ideas at an early stage are
more suitable for this workshop than highly polished results or
incremental refinements of previous work. Submissions may include
position papers that point out new directions and attempt to stimulate
discussion; position papers should be clearly marked as such.
Submission must be original and not already be published or submitted
for publication elsewhere. The proceedings of the workshop will be
published in the ACM Digital Library.
Submissions
-----------
Submitted papers must be at most six (6) pages long, including all
figures, tables, references, appendices, etc. They must be formatted
according to the standard ACM double column format *except* that *all*
text must use a font size of 10 points or larger. Longer submissions
will not be reviewed. The review process is single-blind.
Submission instructions will be posted later.
