                                CALL FOR PAPERS
                                 
      The Second LCN International Workshop on Network Measurements,
will be held in 
      conjunction with the IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks
(LCN). The 
      workshop will include papers and panels dealing with latest
advances and 
      challenges facing the field. The expected audience will include
networking 
      researchers, practitioners, scientists and engineers from
industry, 
      academia and government. 
      
      The first  IEEE LCN Workshop on Network Measurements was very
successful 
      in bringing together a set of participants actively working on
network 
      measurements in various domains. This year we will continue with
the theme 
      "Network Measurements - Different Perspectives," to further
promote the 
      exchange of knowledge among different network measurement domains.

      Topics of Interest:
      -------------------
      Network measurements are crucial for operation, diagnosis, and 
      characterization of complex networks. Accurate characterization is

      important for understanding the behavior of networks and for
evaluating 
      the scalability, reliability and performance of protocols.
Measurements in 
      wired and wireless domains, and end-to-end and subnet measurements
face 
      domain specific constraints while sharing common objectives.
Complex 
      dynamics of the networks and also the difficulties in performing 
      measurement itself pose many challenges. This workshop will
provide a 
      forum for researchers and practitioners interested in network
measurements 
      to discuss and exchange measurement related research in both
wireless and 
      wired domains, and also explore emerging fields of measurements
such as on 
      mobile devices. 

      High quality, previously unpublished work is solicited on the
topics 
      including, but not limited to:

        * Measurements on homogenous and heterogeneous networks 
        * Physical layer characteristics and measurements for wireless
networks 
        * Implementation and operational challenges of wireless testbeds

        * Mobility models and traffic patterns 
        * Wired and wireless domain measurements 
        * Measurement tools 
        * Bandwidth, capacity and delay estimation 
        * Active and passive measurements at core nodes 
        * End-to-end and/or application-level measurements over the
Internet 
        * Metrics for network characterization 
        * Benchmark scenarios and data sets 
        * Measurements on Mobile devices
 
      Paper length should not exceed 8 pages. Papers should be submitted

      electronically in PDF format via EDAS (Please refer to conference
website 
      for detailed submission instructions). Papers will go through a
thorough 
      review process. The accepted papers will appear in the IEEE LCN
conference 
      proceedings.

      Proposals for panel sessions are also invited. Please send the
proposal by 
      the same deadline as for papers.
