The Second IEEE LCN Workshop on
Network Measurements
To be held in conjunction with The
32nd IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks (LCN 2007) October
15-18, 2007
Dublin, Ireland
The 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High quality, previously unpublished work is solicited on the topics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.
