			CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

			OPENSIG 2002 Workshop
			 October 17-18, 2002

		   "From Signaling to Programming"

			University of Kentucky
		       Lexington, Kentucky, USA

	     http://protocols.netlab.uky.edu/opensig2002/

OPENSIG promotes the development of new network architectures and
services through open signaling and programmability. The OPENSIG
community offers a forum for the communication of experimental and
theoretical results aimed at a better understanding of the issues
involved in flexible, programmable network architecture, and the
evolution of existing infrastructure in that direction.

This year's theme is "From Signaling to Programming".  The aim is to
highlight the range of evolution options emerging from research,
especially those that may form the basis of an integrated next
generation network.  The workshop is being organized by the Laboratory
for Advanced Networking and the Department of Computer Science at the
University of Kentucky.

Workshop Venue
   The Workshop will be held in the beautiful W.T. Young Library on the 
   campus of the University of Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky.
