Preliminary Call for Papers

DANMS 2008

3rd International Workshop on Distributed Autonomous Network Management
Systems
Co-located with Globecom 2008, New Orleans, USA
30 November, 2008

http://www.danms.org

The DANMS workshop series focuses on distributed and autonomous
principles for network management and applications of those principles
in network design. This year's workshop emphasizes Service Centric
Network Management considering the impact on the system, across the
whole information flow from service creation to deployment in the
network.

This workshop is looking for full papers describing original, previously
unpublished research work, experimental efforts, practical experiences
with existing systems and industrial developments in the field of
autonomous network management. Papers with a deep focus on a specific
discipline or stimulated by the synergistic interaction of diverse
disciplines are encouraged. 

Followings is a non-exhaustive list of topics that is relevant to the
workshop:

Architecture and Systems Topics relating to Autonomic Networks
   * Cross-layer system architecture design
   * Middleware and O&M techniques for network management
   * Resource modeling approaches for network management
   * Peer-to-peer techniques for autonomic network management
   * Scalability issues in network management
   * Security aspects in network management 

Autonomic Techniques
   * Adaptive & context-based self-management in networks
   * Policy (refinement techniques, policy models)
   * Knowledge based techniques to support autonomics
   * Data management for real-time dynamic service provisioning
   * Real-time MIB engineering for provide cross-layer provisioning

Aspects of Service Management 
   * Use of semantics to enable service deployment and composition
   * Automated service composition and orchestration 
   * Real-time MIB engineering for provide cross-layer provisioning
   * Automated service provisioning across multiple service providers

Case Studies in Existing & Emerging Networks
   * Lessons, shortcomings and real world experiences with existing 
       network management systems, protocols and architectures. 
   * Experiences with service deployment in challenged networks (ad-hoc,

       pervasive, sensor etc.) and the implications on the network
management plane
