--------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers IEEE HPSR 2015 16th IEEE International Conference on High Performance Switching and Routing July 1-July 4, 2015, Budapest, Hungary http://www.ieee-hpsr.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- Paper submission web page: https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=18827 --------------------------------------------------------------------- The dynamicity of modern communication networks relays on the switching and routing infrastructure. The Cloud, the Internet of Things, the Big Data, the mobile data communications, the 4k video, etc. all demand an even more dynamic network provided by high performance switching and routing infrastructure. The next annual IEEE HPSR conference will be highlighted by the presentations of leading communications experts addressing the latest worldwide advancements in topics of software defined networks (SDN), network function virtualization (NFV) and clouds; the convergence of fixed and mobile access with excessive offloading from mobile to Wi-Fi networks; handling the various traffic, quality, fairness and availability requirements; deploying large data centers and enhancing their switching capabilities; provisioning content delivery networks; achieving energy efficiency of switching and routing equipment. These are only a few of the topics that have demanded switching and routing capabilities that are more intelligent, more efficient, and more reliable than ever before. HPSR 2015 will be held in Budapest, Hungary. Past HPSR events were held in Heidelberg (2000), Dallas (2001), Kobe (2002), Torino (2003), Arizona (2004), Hong Kong (2005), Poznan (2006), New York (2007), Shanghai (2008), Paris (2009), Dallas (2010), Cartagena (2011), Belgrade (2012), Taipei (2013), and Vancouver (2014). HPSR 2015 will include: a special Demo Session (http://www.ieee-hpsr.org/#demo-session) Tutorials (http://www.ieee-hpsr.org/#call-for-tutorials) a Panel, Invited Papers, and Regular Papers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IEEE HPSR 2015 will address the entire range of switching and routing technologies including the following topics: - Architectures of high-performance switches and routers - High-speed packet processors - Address lookup algorithms - Packet classification, scheduling, and dropping - Switching, bridging, and routing protocols - Latency and buffer control - Multicasting and anycasting - Low latency and reliable routing for industrial Internet - Security issues in industrial Internet - Internet of Things - Big data driven networks - P2P routing - Routing in wireless, mobile and sensor networks - Optical switching and routing (including spectrum elastic networks) - Switching, bridging, and routing in data centers and clouds - Software defined networking/network function virtualization (SDN/NFV) - Open-source routing, Open Network Control Architecture - Data placement and migration - Multiprocessor networks - Network control and management - Pricing, accounting, and charging - QoS/QoE and scalability of switching, bridging, and routing - Traffic characterization and engineering - Power-aware switching, bridging, and routing protocols - Interface selection and traffic routing in 5G FMC offloading - Routing and switching for 5G core networks - Protection switching and routing, restoration, availability Submitted papers must be unpublished and should not be submitted elsewhere at the same time. Accepted full papers should not exceed 6 pages in two-column IEEE Transactions style. Accepted full papers longer than 6 pages will be charged $100 for each extra page. Papers cannot be longer than 8 pages. Papers should be submitted as PDF files through the EDAS system (https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=18827). All submitted papers will be subject to three independent reviews. Note: To be published in the IEEE HPSR 2015 Conference Proceedings and to be eligible for publication in IEEE Xplore, an author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference at the full (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be presented by an author of that paper at the conference unless the TPC Chair grants permission for a substitute presenter arranged in advance of the event and who is qualified both to present and answer questions. For authors with multiple accepted papers, one full registration is valid for up to 2 papers. --------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES - Paper registration: March 29, 2015 - Full paper submission: March 29, 2015 - Tutorial submission: March 29, 2015 - Demonstration submission: March 29, 2015 - Acceptance notifications: April 26, 2015 - Camera-ready due: May 10, 2015 --------------------------------------------------------------------- HPSR 2015 Organization: ----------------------- General Chair: - Tibor Cinkler, Budapest Univ. of Technology and Economics, Hungary General Co-Chairs: - Naoaki Yamanaka, Keio University, Japan - Eiji Oki, University of Electro-Communications, Japan Steering Committee: - Nirwan Ansari, Chair, New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA - Hussein Mouftah, Past Chair, University of Ottawa, Canada - Andrea Bianco, Politecnico di Torino, Italy - Andrea Fumagalli, The University of Texas at Dallas, USA - Bijan Jabbari, George Mason University, USA - Abbas Jamalipour, University of Sydney, Australia - Eiji Oki, The University of Electro-Communications, Japan - Aleksandra Smiljanic, Belgrade University, Serbia Technical Program Committee Chairs: - Hiroaki Harai, NICT, Japan - Pin-Han Ho, University of Waterloo, Canada - János Tapolcai, Budapest Univ. of Technology and Economics, Hungary Local Arrangement, Finace and Patron Chair: - Péter Nagy, HTE, Hungary Publicity Chairs: - Luca Valcarenghi, SSSUP Pisa, Italy (Europe) - Jacek Rak, Gdansk University of Technology, Poland (Europe) - Hai Lin, Osaka Prefecture University, Japan (Asia) - Tao Han, NJIT, USA (Americas) Best Paper Award Chairs: - Lena Wosinska, KTH, Sweden - Gábor Rétvári, Budapest Univ. of Technology and Economics, Hungary Tutorial Chairs: - Dominic Schupke, Airbus Group Innovations, Munich, Germany - Rolland Vida, Budapest Univ. of Technology and Economics, Hungary Panel Chair: - Kohei Shiomoto, NTT, Japan Social Media Chairs: - Antonio Teixeira, University of Aveiro, Portugal - Nina Skorin-Kapov, Centro Univ. de la Defensa de San Javier, Spain - Neda Cvijetic, NEC Labs America, USA Registration Chair: - Attila Vidács, Budapest Univ. of Technology and Economics, Hungary Publication Chair: - Xiaohong Jiang, Future University Hakodate, Japan Demonstration Chairs: - Filippo Cugini, CNIT, Italy - Fulvio Risso, Politecnico di Torino, Italy - Balázs Sonkoly, Budapest Univ. of Technology and Economics, Hungary IEEE liason: - Rolland Vida, Budapest Univ. of Technology and Economics, Hungary IEEE ComSoc Conference Manager: - Bridget Erlikh (IEEE Communication Society) Patron Chair: - Péter Nagy, HTE, Hungary Project Workshop Chair: - Attila Mitcsenkov, BME, Hungary
