[Tccc] CFP: IEEE ANTS 2009, New Delhi, India

Dear Colleagues,

It is a great pleasure to announce the call for papers for the 3rd
International IEEE Symposium on Advanced Networks and Telecommunication
Systems (ANTS). ANTS 2009 is sponsored by IEEE and all accepted papers will
be digitally archived through IEEE Xplore. Full CFP follows.

Please consider submitting your work to IEEE ANTS 2009. Hope to see you
all in New Delhi!

First Call for Papers

3rd International IEEE Symposium on Advanced Networks and

Telecommunication Systems (ANTS)

IEEE ANTS 2009

December, 14-16, 2009, New Delhi, India

http://www.ieee-ants.org <http://www.ieee-ants.org/>

Scope: Broadband networks are witnessing a convergence in both

technologies and delivered services. Next-generation services require

unified and scalable technologies spread across the network protocol

layers facilitating a converged service model across all partitions of

the network. Advanced integrated systems and network platforms have

benefits in terms of deployment cost as well as the ability to provision

new services. Motivated by the tremendous success of the first two IEEE

ANTS events in Mumbai in 2007 and 2008, which highlighted advances in

systems and networking, the theme of IEEE ANTS 2009 continues to be

communication systems and networking technologies for realizing

converged ubiquitous broadband connectivity. To achieve this goal, the

symposium will feature a technical program of previously unpublished

papers, tutorials, talks, and panels on relevant topics bringing

together experts from academia, industry, government and the user

community who are involved in the research, design, development,

deployment, regulation and application of communication and networking

technologies. The symposium will cover technologies that facilitate

broadband connectivity and cover advances in the service, networking,

transport and user equipment domains. Making ubiquitous broadband

affordable is driving service providers, network operators, and OEMs

(Original Equipment Manufacturers) towards converged network solutions

and services as a way to reduce CAPEX and OPEX. Further, cost-effective

research and development partnerships with knowledge economies in India,

China, and Eastern Europe are being increasingly leveraged as can be

gauged by the growth of ODMs (Original Design Manufacturers) and

software service providers. IEEE ANTS 2009 provides a common meeting

ground for the confluence and exchange of ideas with a rich mix of

participation from the academia, global industry and other stakeholders.

The symposium will be held in the capital of India - New Delhi - during

December 14-16, 2009.

Recognizing the growth of IEEE ANTS in its first two years, IEEE ANTS

2009 will feature four areas covering a variety of topics consistent

with the theme of Converged Networks.

The four areas are:

1. Core Telecom Networks including topics such as:

* Optical networks

* ROADMs, OXC architectures

* Carrier Ethernet

* Core network architectures and protocols

* Router and switch architectures: IP, SONET/SDH, MSPP

* Multi-domain and multi-layer transport networks

2. Access Telecom Networks including topics such as:

* FTTX Networks

* First-mile access networks

* Passive Optical Networks (PON)

* Wireless access networks and WiMax

* Access network architectures and protocols

* Other access networks: ADSL, DOCSIS, VDSL, Cable, etc.

3. Network applications including topics such as:

* Data security, Content processing/billing, OSS

* IPTV, Video-on-Demand, Telepresence

* Topics in telecommunications

* Mobile backhaul

* Digital Rights Management

4. Networking Broadly Defined including topics such as:

* Storage networks

* Cloud computing

* Utility computing

* Energy efficient networking

* Personal/wireless networks

Submissions: Authors are encouraged to submit a three-page extended

abstract via EDAS ( <http://edas.info/> http://edas.info). Papers will be
reviewed for

technical content and scope by a technical program committee. All

accepted papers would be digitally archived through IEEE Xplore. To

achieve wide participation, no author may submit more than TWO papers to

the conference. If a person is a co-author on more than two papers, only

two of these papers will be selected for review and the other papers

will be rejected without review. Every accepted paper must be presented

at the conference for it to be archived on IEEE Xplore.

The Industry Session will be organized as a set of panels and will

afford a unique opportunity for industry leaders to present their

perspectives and share their views on design, development, deployment

and regulatory aspects as it pertains to functioning in the global

economy. The theme of these panels would be on Converged Services and

Networking. Those interested in proposing/organizing panels should

submit their proposals in the form of a one-page summary to the Industry

Chair before September 1, 2009.

Important Dates:

Paper submissions: July 31, 2009.

Notification of acceptance: October 1, 2009.

Registration for authors: October 31, 2009.
