CALL FOR PAPERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
3rd International Workshop on
Networked Group Communication (NGC 2001)
November 7-9, 2001
UCL
London, England
Organized by UCL and COST 264
in cooperation with ACM Sigcomm
---------------------------------
Scope of the Conference
-----------------------
The aim of the Workshop is to allow researchers and practioners to
present the design and implementation techniques for networked group
communication, as well as performance analysis and evaluation of such
mechanisms. The focus of the Workshop is on multicast and networked group
communication, right up to session and application level control
mechanisms and services. This Workshop is the third and only
international event in this area (first workshop was in Pisa, Italy,
in November 1999; the second was at Stanford, USA, in November 2000).
The workshop will start with half day tutorials on the 7th. The
technical program will include two keynotes and invited talks on the
8th and the 9th of November 2001. There may also be a panel discussion
as well as a poster session.
Authors are invited to submit papers on any issue related to
networked group communication, including:
- application layer multicast and content distribution
- multipeer applications (distributed interactive applications, games, DIS)
- applications and services enabled through multicast
- use of group communication mechanisms to support control plane tasks
- scalability: overheads, stability, analysis, experiments
- economic models
- novel group communication architectures
- routing, naming, address allocation
- group and session management techniques
- QoS and network engineering
- reliable and semi-reliable protocols
- wireless and mobile multicast
- security
- adaption and congestion control for group communication
- heterogeneous group communication
- deployment related issues
The Proceedings of the Workshop will be published by ACM and papers will
be available on-line prior to the workshop.
