Call for Contributions

Workshop on High-Speed Networking 2003
in conjunction with INFOCOM 2003

30 March 2003 - San Francisco 
Sponsored by the IEEE ComSoc Technical Committee on Gigabit Networking 

Purpose and Format

The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for presenting and
discussing very recent work in high-speed networking and to raise
relevant issues to the general networking community in a timely manner.
It will take place from 8:30 AM until 5:00 PM with lunch provided. There
will be an open business meeting of the Technical Committee on Gigabit
Networking following the workshop at 5:00 PM.
The workshop will consist of a keynote speech, followed by a number of
short informal presentations grouped into topical sessions, followed by
a panel session. 
All issues relating to high bandwidth networking are relevant, including
link layer protocols for optical and wireless networks, large fast
switch and router design, transport and higher layer protocols, host and
network interface architecture, operating systems, emerging services and
applications, testbeds and deployment, network control and management,
economic and regulatory issues, security and privacy, and other societal
impacts. We are particularly interested in issues related to networks
that can be scaled to a high (number of users) x (throughput per user)
product.

Sessions

Presentations are planned to be grouped into the following sessions:
o IP and Optical Networks 
o Wireless and Satellite
o Switching, Routing, and Network Processors
o A User Prospective: Gigabit Applications, End-to-end Services, 
  Cost and Pricing
