The purpose of this workshop is to present and to discuss the principles
of Autonomic Communication (AC) –
a new communication paradigm to assist the design of the Next
Generation Networks (NGN). This workshop explicitly focuses on the
grounding principles to achieve purposeful behavior on top of
self-organization (self-management, self-healing, self-awareness, etc.).
ThisCall solicits papers that study network element’s autonomic behavior
as a consequence of innovative protocol structures (as opposed to
traditional stack) and their interaction with numerous and largely-dynamic
network groups and communities. The goals are to understand how autonomic
behaviors are learned, influenced or changed, and how, in turn, these
affect other elements, groups and the network.
The self-organized networking structures will be able to sense their
environment, detect and perceive changes and understand the meaning of
these changes, thus facilitating new ways of performing network control,
management, middle box communication, service creation, etc. This will be
based on universal and fine-grained multiplexing of numerous policies,
rules and events which are done autonomously but facilitate the desired
behavior of groups of network elements. Papers addressing autonomic
communication principles applicable to the Internet or new networking
paradigms and structures are
welcome. The emphasis of the event
is on long-term research agenda with a broad interdisciplinary
approach to
explore concurrently multiple paradigm spaces. In addition
to technical papers, well though-out position papers will also be
accommodated.
