Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2011-11-15. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The IETF has developed a one way packet loss metric that measures the loss rate on a Poisson probe stream between two hosts. However, the impact of packet loss on applications is in general sensitive not just to the average loss rate, but also to the way in which packet losses are distributed in loss episodes (i.e., maximal sets of consecutively lost probe packets). This draft defines one-way packet loss episode metrics, specifically the frequency and average duration of loss episodes, and a probing methodology under which the loss episode metrics are to be measured.

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. Topics of interest ------------------ Authors are invited to submit papers that fall into or are related to the topic areas listed below: - Architectural Issues * Advantages and disadvantages of revolutionary, evolutionary, and other approaches to managing the Future Internet * Separation of data, control, and management planes * Design of architectural building blocks for managing the Future Internet * Advances in measurement, management, security, accounting, mobility, and other functions * Virtualization of resources and services * Dynamic composition of management and operational functionality * Mechanisms for managing interconnected computational infrastructures (e.g. elastic clouds, federated clouds) in the Future Internet * Implications of social network success on the Future Internet architecture - Design and Implementation Issues * Abstractions for programmable network elements * Accommodating context-awareness in management * Applying situation awareness to network management * Federation between administrative domains and support of all constituencies * The role of models, ontologies, and other knowledge abstractions in the Future Internet * Uncertainty and probabilistic approaches to management of the Future Internet * Approaches for the organization of management data, data analytics and visualization * Experience reports from Future Internet experimental facilities set-up and results - Economic Issues * Economic aspects driving the deployment of Future Internet management technology * Economic opportunities and challenges for management technology * Experience reports from management in test beds Paper submission ---------------- Paper submissions must present original, research or experiences. Late-breaking advances and work-in-progress reports from ongoing research are also encouraged. Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere can be submitted. Each submission must be written in English, accompanied by a 75 to 200 word abstract that 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. Authors should submit their papers in PDF, postscript, or Word formats via 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 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.

This draft is a work item of the IP Performance Metrics Working Group = of the IETF. Title : IPPM standard advancement testing Author(s) : Ruediger Geib Al Morton Reza Fardid Alexander Steinmitz Filename : draft-ietf-ippm-metrictest-05.txt Pages : 37 Date : 2011-11-30 This document specifies tests to determine if multiple independent instantiations of a performance metric RFC have implemented the specifications in the same way. This is the performance metric equivalent of interoperability, required to advance RFCs along the standards track. Results from different implementations of metric RFCs will be collected under the same underlying network conditions and compared using statistical methods. The goal is an evaluation of the metric RFC itself; whether its definitions are clear and unambiguous to implementors and therefore a candidate for advancement on the IETF standards track. This document is an Internet Best Current Practice.
