[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] SIGCOMM '91 Call for Papers

craig@NNSC.NSF.NET (Craig Partridge) (09/15/90)

[Hi folks -- SIGCOMM '90 is just around the corner so it's time for me to
start trolling for papers for SIGCOMM '91 -- craig]

		    Call For Papers

		 ACM SIGCOMM '91 CONFERENCE
 Communications Applications, Architectures and Protocols

	    ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
   September 4-6, 1991 (Tutorials September 3, 1991)


The conference provides an international forum for the presentation
and discussion of communication network applications and
technologies, as well as recent advances and proposals on communication
architectures, protocols, algorithms, and performance
models. It is the first time that SIGCOMM will hold its conference
outside of the United States.

Authors are invited to submit full papers concerned with both
theory and practice. The areas of interest for the conference
include, but are not limited to the following: Analysis and
design of computer network architectures and algorithms, innovative
results in local area networks, computer-supported cooperative work,
network interconnection and mixed-media networks,
high-speed networks, resource sharing in distributed systems,
network management, distributed operating systems and databases,
protocol specification, verification, and analysis.

Papers should be about 20 double-spaced pages long and should
have an abstract of 100-150 words. All submitted papers will be
reviewed and will be judged with respect to their quality and
relevance. Authors of accepted papers will be expected to sign an
ACM copyright release form. The Proceedings will be distributed
at the conference and published as a special issue of ACM SIGCOMM
Computer Communication Review. Notable papers will be considered
for publication in ACM Transactions on Computer Systems.

Submit 5 copies of each paper to the program chairman (or in the
US, the US program committee contact):

Prof. Bernhard Plattner
Technische Informatik und Kommunikationsnetze  Telephone: +41 1 254 7000

sicomm91@nri.reston.va.us

Special session: Applications of High Speed Networks

One or more sessions of the conference will be devoted to the
subject of applications of high speed networks. Papers in these
sessions will focus on concepts, implementation and experience of
applications that need the performance that future high speed
networks will offer. Topics include, but are not limited to new
approaches to computer-supported cooperative work, graphic visualization,
and access to supercomputers. Papers submitted for
these topics should address applications and their communications
requirements.

Student Paper Award

Papers submitted by students will enter a student-paper award
contest. Among the accepted papers, a maximum of four outstanding
papers will be awarded (1) full conference registration and (2) a
travel grant of $500 US dollars. To be eligible the student must
be the sole author or a primary contributor to the paper.

IMPORTANT DATES


Deadline for paper submission:  March 2, 1991.
Notification of acceptance:   April 30, 1991.
Camera ready papers due:     May 31, 1991.
