Call for Papers: Workshop on Self-Adaptive Networking at SASO 2010
Self-organizing communication networks are often built with explicit protocols (e.g., DHCP). Organization is a primary goal and so it is easy to recognize these systems. Self-adaptive networks often have their adaptation mechanism built into a protocol as a component. Common examples include congestion avoidance in TCP and collision detection in Ethernet. Through this workshop, we plan to explore the ways in which self-adaptation is currently used in networking (often without being recognized) and how ideas from the self-* community can be applied to perform these functions with a principled approach. This workshop will bring together researchers from different areas such as wireless networking, quality-of-service, networking applications, intelligent networking, and self adaptive technology to gain broad insights into specific research issues related to self-adaptive networking and to foster discussions about ongoing research, establish directions for future research and collaborations, and identify best practices for applying self-adaptive techniques to networking. Specific topics of interest include: • Dynamically Configurable Protocol Stacks • Meta-level control and monitoring of networks • Use of feedback mechanisms in network operations • Self-explaining network systems • Self-adaptive, self healing or autonomic networks • Centralized versus distributed network control • Measurement of network properties in support of self evaluation • The role of state abstraction in network self evaluation • Computational models of network performance • Adaptive routing, queuing, and scheduling • Learning in adaptive networks • Integration of self-adaptive techniques in self-organizing networks • Mobile adaptive protocols • Protocol composition • Dynamically reprogrammable switches • Policy-based Network Management systems used to build self-adaptive networks • Energy-aware networks • Use of homeostasis and highly optimized tolerance (HOT) techniques Important Dates Submission of contributions to workshops: July 12, 2010 Workshop papers acceptance notification: August 6, 2010 Early registration deadline: August 13, 2010 Camera Ready Copy: August 20, 2010 SAN Workshop at SASO 2010 in Budapest, Hungary: September 27, 2010 Submission Instructions: We encourage the submission of high quality, original papers that are not submitted for publication elsewhere.
