Call for Technical Papers (WordPDF

The 12th IEEE/IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS 2010) will be held 19-23 April 2010 at the Osaka International Convention Center, Osaka, Japan. Held in even-numbered years since 1988, NOMS 2010 will follow the 22 years tradition of NOMS and IM as the primary IEEE Communications Society's forum for technical exchange on network and service management focusing on research, development, integration, standards, service provisioning, and user communities. NOMS 2010 will present up-to-date approaches and technical solutions for novel management paradigms to deal with the new management issues in future infrastructures such as Web 2.0 or beyond service environments, cloud computing platforms, large-scale datacenters, and the Future Internet, as well targeting the conventional issues in large and complex services, systems, and networks.

NOMS 2010 will offer four types of sessions: technical, application, poster, and panel sessions. Technical sessions will present high-quality papers on the latest research results in the network operations and management area. Application sessions will include papers focusing on the experience in IT and telecommunications industries, such as service providers, OSS vendors, and equipment manufacturers. The scope here includes customer requirements, management system implementations, and business practices. Poster sessions provide an insight into work-in-progress. Panel sessions will focus on business implications, market trends, and emerging applications with panelists who are the technology and business leaders.

Please note: Papers accepted for NOMS 2010 will be included in the conference Proceedings, IEEE XPlore, and EI Index, with the exception that IEEE reserves the right to exclude any paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference.  Papers that are removed from IEEE Xplore will not be available through the EI Index.

Call for Panels
Towards Management of Future Networks and Services

NOMS 2010 will feature a number of panel discussions that offer the symposium audience the opportunity to engage in exchanges with experts who offer different viewpoints on leading-edge topics related to Network and Service Management.㺹 Accordingly, NOMS 2010 solicits proposals and ideas for panels.㺹

A panel proposal should indicate a brief description of the topic and why it would be of interest to the audience.㺹 Ideally, panel topics will allow to accommodate different perspectives and view points.㺹 Besides opening and position statements, panels should leave room for spontaneous interaction between panelists and the audience; they may be somewhat open ended.㺹 In addition, a panel proposal should include a suggestion for a panel moderator (if different from the submitter) and possible panelists.㺹 If needed, the Organizing Committee can assist with the identification of additional panelists.㺹 Proposals will be evaluated by the NOMS 2010 Organizing Committee.


Important Dates
Deadline for Panel Proposals: October 19, 2009
Notification of Acceptance: November 1, 2009
Panel Dates: April 20 - April 22, 2010

Please send your proposal to the Panel Co-Chairs,
Alexander Clemm(alex@cisco.com) and Atsushi Takahara (takahara.atsushi@lab.ntt.co.jp) ,
mentioning "NOMS 2010 Panel Proposal" in the subject line.
