IEEE/IFIP International Workshop on Management of the Future Internet
(ManFI 2012)
==================================================================================
16 April 2012
Maui, Hawaii, USA
http://www.manfi.org


CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------
The Fourth IEEE/IFIP International Workshop on Management of the Future
Internet (ManFI 2012) will be held in conjunction with IEEE/IFIP NOMS 2012
in Maui, Hawaii, USA, from April 16-20, 2012. The workshop is sponsored by
the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc) and supported by POSTECH ITCE,
Ghent University-IBBT, NEC, and Ericsson LM. The workshop is endorsed by
the Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management (CNOM).

It is widely agreed that, despite its many successes, the current Internet
also has a set of systemic problems, ranging from an upcoming shortage of
IP addresses to insufficient security. However, the lack of scalable and
agile manageability is arguably more important, as without management, it
is impossible to build systems that adapt the services and resources
offered in a context-dependent manner.

In either case (clean slate vs. evolution vs. revolution) we must consider
the manageability of the Future Internet from the beginning. Following the
success of the three previous editions of this workshop, held in
conjunction with IM 2009, NOMS 2010 and IM 2011, ManFI 2012 aims at
providing an international forum for researchers in these and similar
areas. ManFI 2012 will combine original full paper presentations with a
motivating keynote, quick hot topic presentations and a panel discussion
to thoroughly explore this challenging topic.

clearly outlines the scope and contributions of the paper, and a list of
up to 5 key words. There is a length limitation of 6 pages (including
title, abstract, all figures, tables, and references) for regular
conference papers, and 4 pages for short papers. Submissions must be in
IEEE 2-column style. Papers exceeding these limits, multiple submissions,
and self-plagiarized papers will be rejected without further review.

JEMS: (https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/).


Proceedings
-----------
Papers accepted for ManFI 2012 will be included in the conference
proceedings, IEEE Xplore, and EI Index. The IEEE reserves the right to
remove any paper from IEEE Xplore if the paper is not presented at the
workshop. Awards will be presented to the best paper and to the best
student paper at the workshop. Furthermore, we plan to work with a leading
journal, such as JNSM, TNSM and IJNM, to solicit extended versions of the
best papers of ManFI 2012 to be submitted for review.

The IESG recently approved RFC 6390 which describes a framework and a
process for developing Performance Metrics of protocols and applications
transported over IETF-specified protocols.  The scope of the document is
complementary to the scope of the IPPM WG and BMWG focusing on metrics
of protocols above and below the IP layer that can be used to
characterize performance on live networks,=20

Section 2.2 of the document recommends the formation of a specialized
directorate:=20

   The Performance Metrics Directorate is a directorate that provides
   guidance for Performance Metrics development in the IETF.

   The Performance Metrics Directorate should be composed of experts in
   the performance community, potentially selected from the IP
   Performance Metrics (IPPM), Benchmarking Methodology (BMWG), and
   Performance Metrics for Other Layers (PMOL) WGs.

Further details are available in Section 6 of RFC 6390.=20

There are already a number of volunteers to start the directorate but we
can use more expert minds. If you are interested in volunteering or
would like to hear more details please approach me or Al Morton. We can
discuss more during IETF-82 for those who will make the trip to Taipei.=20

Thanks and Regards,

Dan
