[e2e] IEEE LANMAN Call for Participation

[Eric Rozner2]

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
IEEE Workshop on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN)
http://www.ieee-lanman.org/ <http://www.ieee-lanman.org/#papers>

DEADLINE APPROACHING
Early Registration: April 28, 2014

CONFERENCE DATES
May 21-23, 2014
Reno, NV USA

DESCRIPTION
IEEE LANMAN has an established tradition as a forum for presenting and
discussing the latest technical advances in local and metropolitan area
networking. Continuing that tradition, IEEE LANMAN 2014 invites
cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and experimentation. Papers are
solicited in all areas of networking, but in keeping with the current
research trend, this workshop’s central theme is data center networking.
The intimate single-track session format of the workshop encourages
stimulating exchanges between researchers. The workshop is expected to be a
forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas on architectures,
service models, pricing, and performance. Speculative and potentially
transformative ideas are particularly encouraged, as are studies reporting
measurements from real-life networks and testbeds. Papers are solicited on
any LANMAN topic including, but not limited to, the following:

POLICY
All IEEE LANMAN 2014 technical papers and posters must be associated with
an author registration at the full rate. For authors presenting multiple
papers/posters, one full registration is valid for up to three
papers/posters. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper/poster from
distribution after the workshop (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the
paper/poster is not presented at the workshop.
