The objective of the OFELIA/CHANGE Summer School is to bring together PhD students and researchers who are currently working on future Internet topics such as: * Principles of evolving future architectures * New networking paradigms * OpenFlow-related topics * Programmable networks, NetFPGAs * Network virtualization * Measurements and analyses that characterize and quantify architectural limitations * Discussions on interworking with the existing Internet and deployability The program will contain presentations by well-known international experts on various topics. PhD students are encouraged to submit a two pages extended abstract describing their current research results. After having submitted their abstract, all PhD students will be asked to comment and discuss some of the other submitted abstracts. This will allow the PhD students to discuss about their ongoing research with other PhD students before to summer school to ease discussion and cooperation among PhD students. The number of places is limited and PhD students who have submitted abstracts will have priority over other registrations. Submissions Submitted abstracts must be at most two pages long, including all figures, tables, references, appendices, etc. They must be formatted according to the standard ACM double column format. Submission Deadline: July 22, 2011 Discussion phase: until August 15, 2011 Additional information and a submission website will be available on the summer school's website : http://changeofelia.info.ucl.ac.be/ From touch at isi.edu Fri Jul 1 07:34:21 2011 From: touch at isi.edu (Joe Touch) Date: Fri, 01 Jul 2011 07:34:21 -0700 Subject: [sigcomm] PhD School on OpenFlow/Future Internet in Berlin (after IMC 2011) In-Reply-To: <4E0DABAA.9010301@tik.ee.ethz.ch> References: <4E0DABAA.9010301@tik.ee.ethz.ch> Message-ID: <4E0DDAED.50405@isi.edu> Hi, all, As a reminder, this list permits post ONLY for meetings that are in-cooperation or sponsored by ACM Sigcomm.

In such approaches, the principal paradigm is not host-to-host communication as in the current Internet architecture. Instead, an increasing demand for highly scalable and efficient distribution of content has motivated the development of architectures that focus on information objects, their properties, and receiver interest in the network to achieve efficient and reliable distribution of such objects. Corresponding network architectures can leverage in-network storage, multiparty communication through replication and interaction models such as publish-subscribe to provide general platforms for communication services that are today only available in dedicated systems such as peer-to-peer overlays and proprietary content-distribution networks. Important research topics for ICN include: naming and addressing (how to name information objects, how to represent location information), routing and resolution (deciding on how to forward "interest" in information and actual information objects, whether and how to resolve information object names to lower layer identifiers during that process), resource management (implications of in-network caching and paradigms such as receiver-orientation to resource sharing, congestion control etc.) and security (privacy, data protection and key distribution have to be adapted to the new communication models). This workshop features original contributions on Information-Centric Networking architecture topics as well as on results from implementations and experimentation. There will also be a panel discussion on ICN and future research directions that is supported by a group of renowned experts in the field.
