Toward an Autonomic Internet Symposium Chair and Vice-Chairs    • Marco Ajmone Marsan, Politecnico di Torino, Italy, ajmone@polito.it    • Marcus Brunner, NEC Europe Ltd. Germany, marcus.brunner@netlab.nec.de    • Wanjiun Liao, National Taiwan University, wjliao@cc.ee.ntu.edu.tw    • Claudio Casetti, Politecnico di Torino, Italy, casetti@polito.it Scope Thanks to the ubiquitous nature of today’s Internet, research in the field of networking is more and more focusing on new protocols, architectures and services to simplify access to online services, and to control next generation networks, in a scalable, efficient, and automatic way. Due to the complexity of the dynamics of future networks, protocols at all layers must improve their efficiency and ability in handling an ever-growing demand from everyday users, while the management overhead is reduced at a minimum.

Topics of interest: Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Internet architecture and protocols Autonomic networking principles and architectures Integration of mobile and fixed networks Co-operative networks VPNs and overlay networks Peer-to-peer networks Self-organizing and self-protecting networks Network management in dynamic/mobile environments Addressing and naming MPLS and traffic engineering Unicast and multicast routing protocols

Web performance Context-aware services Support for streaming and real-time media Mobile code and network programmability Pricing and billing Privacy and Security Plug and play networking components Switching architectures Techniques and tools for traffic measurements Techniques and tools for IP networks performance analysis Techniques and tools for IP networks design and planning Internet source and traffic modelling Control theory for networking
