WORKSHOPS

Convergence is a key design aspect for next generation networks. The seamless integration of wireless and wired network architectures, point-to-point and broadcasting communications, data and multimedia-oriented services, mobile and cellular systems, sensor networks, fast fiber and long delay networks remains a challenging endeavor for network operation and management. The complete end-to-end picture becomes unclear to say the least.

As new technologies meet old ones, many need to be revisited to fit into this complex scenario. In this workshop, we will look at the latest advances in broadband access technologies including IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN, 802.16 Wireless MAN (WiBro, WiMax) and 3G/4G wireless cellular networks and their SIP based IMS platform, broadband access networks, such as xDSL, FTTH and Cable, and examine their use for emerging streaming, multicast, and broadcast applications such as IPTV.

Sharing research and development experiences towards next generation architecture design and management is very important. Architectural issues such as naming and addressing, routing and service scalability, late binding, cross layer design, mobility and heterogeneous support, service orchestration, among others are encouraged into the broadband context. These different visions on how carriers will deliver voice, data and video services - with less network complexity and efficient control - are crucial information for operators and carriers.

This 5th edition of the International Workshop on Broadband Convergence Networks (BcN) builds on the success of its previous editions, which could be successfully held in conjunction with the IEEE/IFIP NOMS and IM conferences since 2006. The main goal of the BcN workshop is to draw researchers with different backgrounds to share their experience and knowledge of the current status of standardization and technology development of BcN, to discuss challenges and present possible solutions and innovations for the challenges that broadband networking is facing today and more over tomorrow.

Information Technology (IT) management has evolved significantly over the past few years as IT-based solutions have become increasingly critical to the functioning of organizations. From device, network and systems management, solutions have evolved to include service management and IT governance, as witnessed by the recent popularity of ITIL and COBIT frameworks.

A recent shift in perspective brought to bear a more user-centric approach to IT management, putting IT managers in condition to look at IT not just from the IT department's traditional point of view but from the user's point of view: this is the reason for the appearance of services and quality of service metrics in these frameworks.

Even more recently, a further shift towards holistic understanding of IT in order to fulfill business objectives is occurring: one now wishes to look beyond IT services to the context where the services are used. This is termed Business-driven IT Management (BDIM) and is the object of this workshop.

BDIM focuses on the impact of IT on business processes and business-level objectives and vice versa; besides the conventional IT metrics such as availability and response time, it looks at other key performance indicators (KPIs), that is metrics that have significance from the point of view of the business supported by the IT. The BDIM approach aims at rethinking IT management from a business perspective, whether this be in an operational, tactical or strategic context. BDIM is not restricted to IT environments in enterprises but encompasses techniques and decision making that involve thinking about IT in terms of objectives that are at business level, of organizations that may not traditionally be classified as "businesses".

The second IFIP/IEEE International Workshop on Management of the Future Internet (ManFI 2010) will be held in conjunction with theقIEEE/IFIP NOMS 2010قConference on April 19, 2009 in Osaka, Japan. The workshop is sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society, Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management (CNOM), the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), the Autonomic Communications Forum (ACF), EMANICS, and the POSTECH WCU. (ACF pending)

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 ManFI 2009 held in conjunction with IM 2009, this workshop aims at providing an international forum for researchers in these and similar areas. ManFI 2010 will combine original full paper presentations with quick hot topic presentations and a panel discussion to thoroughly explore this challenging topic.

The rapid technological progress in the area of network virtualization, mainly driven by new optical fiber technology and virtual router infrastructures, is generating a new trend for the provisioning of bandwidth on demand. The support of fully decentralized bandwidth allocation and network management schemes shows further advantages in terms of robustness and scalability for large-scale systems.

However, suitable business models for such novel bandwidth services have not yet evolved, despite of simple time-based charging methods for different bandwidth levels. This is especially so in the case of federations among multiple virtual network providers where more than one administrative domain are involved in the provision of a single service. Such federated infrastructures include neighborhood wireless mesh networks and experimental facilities like GENI or PlanetLab, which require different economic models than the ones proposed for ISP interconnection and the Grid to capture the whole complexity of this novel type of multi-tier resource sharing economy.

The third BoD workshop follows the first and second successful workshops which were held in conjunction with IEEE Globecom 2006 and IEEE/IFIP NOMS 2008, as well as a Dagstuhl seminar held in 2009. The workshop seeks original papers, both from industry as well as academia, dealing with the technical, economic, and regulatory dimensions of bandwidth allocation in fixed and wireless networks. The workshop will include presentations and discussions of accepted technical papers, as well as invited talks.

Theقfirst IEEE International Workshop on Knowledge Management for Future Networks and Services (KMFSAN 2010) will be held in conjunction with the NOMS 2010 conference on April 23 in Osaka, Japan. The workshop is sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society, Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management (CNOM), the POSTECH WCU, and the Autonomic Communications Forum (all pending).

Multi-national efforts exist that are focused on ushering in the emergence of a new economy in which brainpower, not machine power, is the critical resource. The move from an industrially-based economy to a knowledge- or information-based one demands the formalization of Knowledge Management (KM) systems in order to ensure that the organization can learn and modify knowledge dynamically as well as to secure a competitive edge in the market. قOrganizations as well as devices, networks, and systems need to assimilate diverse sources of data from heterogeneous sources. In both cases, information can exist at different levels of abstraction. Fusion of such knowledge is complicated by varying data formats and data generation techniques; the use of different concepts and terminologies exacerbates this problem.

It is becoming increasingly important that businesses be able to directly control the sets of services and resources that they offer. Such business-driven resources and services are complicated by the inability to translate the semantics of different terms between these two constituencies. This workshop will address these and other issues. Special attention will be given to cross-disciplinary approaches to improve search, discovery, management, security, and storage of knowledge, as well as transforming data into knowledge and correlating different types of knowledge to gain a better understanding of the context at hand.

Currently, there is a global consensus to increase energy efficiency, stimulate usage of renewable energy sources, and reduce CO2 emissions.
The Smart Grid consists in overlaying the power delivery system with an ICT layer that allows a utility provider and its consumers to constantly monitor and adjust electricity use. Efficient management of such Smart Grids is considered an important research topic for the next years in both academia and industry.
In the first edition of this workshop, we target the definition of the required underlying ICT architectures, monitoring and management technologies for smart energy grids and identifying the important topics and approaches for further research in this area. In addition, results from socio-technical studies will be presented to provide insight in the user interactions and behavioral response to the envisaged systems, together with business modeling studies to propose the market models enabled/driven by smart energy ICT.

Cloud computing and virtual networking are currently hot topics and have been generating substantial interest in the community and it is anticipated that this interest will expand. It is also important to the management community as it is challenging traditional management methods by its sheer size and high level of automation. Clouds must provide appropriate levels of performance to large groups of diverse users, and those clouds are accessed through virtualized wide area networks. Management systems are essential for that and thereby for the future success of the cloud paradigm. New systems, methods, and approaches for cloud and virtualization management from an IT as well as a networking perspective are to be discussed at this workshop.
