High-Speed Networks Symposium
HSN 2002
Part of Globecom 2002
Nov 18-20
Taipei, Taiwan
CALL FOR PAPERS
New generations of local, metropolitan, wide-area, access, and
wireless networks are pushing the envelope on network speeds. Faster,
more capable networks herald the convergence of voice, video, and data
and promise to facilitate applications ranging from video-conferencing
to grid computing. However, the challenges are many, requiring
improved network architectures, protocols, routers, switches, and
components, appropriate programming and operating system support,
novel approaches for network management, security, and quality of
service, sensible migration paths, and successful pilot studies.
The High-Speed Networks Symposium 2002 (HSN'2002) will be held as part
of Globecom'2002 to address these and other topics relevant to
high-speed networking. Globecom is the flagship annual conference of
the IEEE Communications Society and this year will be held in Taipei,
Taiwan, from November 17 to 21.
Researchers, developers, and practitioners of all areas of industry,
academia, and governmental agencies of all nations are encouraged to
submit papers to HSN'2002. Topics of interest include but are not
limited to:
* Last-mile solutions, pilot studies, and deployment projections
and evaluation
* Metropolitan-area networks, including Metro Ethernet and
Resilient Packet Rings
* Optical networks, including switching technologies, dynamic
provisioning, protection, and restoration
* Wireless networks, including 802.11x, 3G/4G, and All-IP
* Novel mechanisms for scheduling, buffering, switching, routing,
and multicast
* Programming and operating system support for network processors
and high-speed nodes
* Network management, traffic engineering, quality of service, and
security in high-speed networks
* Inter-layer interactions (e.g., IP/SONET and electrical/optical)
and interoperability in high-speed networks
* Viability studies and migration paths, e.g., from ATM to
(G)MPLS-based core networks
* Governmental initiatives and regulatory agenda and concerns
* Applications, including video-conferencing, video-on-demand,
telecommuting, VPNs, network-based storage, thin clients, grid
computing, and respective pilot studies and deployment evaluation
Papers should be at most 5 pages long and conform to Globecom 2002
guidelines. Papers must be submitted electronically via the Globecom
2002 web site at:
http://www.globecom2002.com/submissions/
To ensure proper paper routing, authors should indicate that their
papers are being submitted to the High-Speed Networks Symposium. It is
suggested that contact authors also send to the HSN'2002 co-chairs
(jcb@dnrc.bell-labs.com & andreaf@utdallas.edu) an email message
containing their papers' title, abstract, and author list. Each paper
will be refereed by at least three reviewers. Accepted papers will be
published by IEEE in the Proceedings of Globecom 2002.
Best paper award
IEEE TCGN will distinguish with its Best Paper Award one paper
submitted to HSN'2002. This paper will be selected by the HSN'2002
technical program committee.
Student travel grants
IEEE Communications Society will award a limited number of grants to
authors who are full-time students and need to travel from another
region to present an accepted paper at HSN'2002.
Other sessions
In addition to refereed paper sessions, HSN'2002 will feature a
keynote address on optical networking by Dr. David Lee (Head of Bell
Labs Research China) and a panel discussion on metropolitan networks
organized by Prof. Hui Zhang (Turin Networks and Carnegie Mellon
University).
