Call For Papers

The 5th IEEE International Workshop on Management of Emerging Networks and Services (IEEE MENS 2013)
in conjunction with IEEE GLOBECOM 2013, 9-13 December, Atlanta, Georgia, USA

http://grtc.uha.fr/MENS2013/

More recently, requirements in network management and control have been amended by emerging network and computing models, including wireless sensor networks, ad hoc networks, overlay networks, grid networks, optical networks, multimedia networks, storage networks, the convergence of next generation networks (NGN), the clouds, or even nano-networks etc. Increasingly ubiquitous network environments require new management strategies, which can cope with resource constraints, multi-federated operations, scalability, dependability, context awareness, security, mobility and probability etc. To bring complex network systems under control, it is necessary for the IT industry to move to autonomic management, autonomic features in both the data and control planes of the network, context-aware management and self-management systems in which technology itself is used to manage technology. New theoretical approaches are needed in resolving the challenging problems in network management including network architectural reference models that incorporate autonomic and self-management principles. This workshop will provide a forum to researchers to propose theories and technologies on the management of emerging networks and services, share their experience of IT and telecommunications industries and discuss future management solutions for emerging networks and services. The workshop will also give the opportunity for the various communities and stakeholders to show results of adopting the ETSI AFI GANA Reference Model in research work and prototyping, while at the same time presenting and discussing the ways in which various research results can be contributed to the evolution of the Reference Model (as it becomes a commonly-shared framework for autonomic, cognitive networking and self-management).

SUBMISSION
IEEE MENS 2013 only accepts original, previously unpublished papers. Concurrent submission to GLOBECOM and other conferences or journals is not allowed. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit papers in IEEE style up to 5 pages, but one additional page is allowed with additional publication fee. You may use the standard IEEE Transactions templates for Microsoft Word or LaTeX formats found at http://www.ieee.org/web/publications/authors/transjnl/index.html. Only PDF files are accepted for paper review and must be submitted through EDAS (http://edas.info/N15055).
An accepted paper must be registered before the registration deadline. An accepted paper should be presented at the workshop. Failure to register before the deadline will result in automatic withdrawal of the paper from the workshop proceedings and the program. All accepted and presented papers will be included in the IEEE GLOBECOM proceedings and available through IEEEXplore. GLOBECOM has the right to remove an accepted and registered but not presented paper from the IEEEXplore.
