IEEE Consumer Communications and Networking Conference (CCNC), 2014

CFP for Special session on Research and Case Study for Designing and Deploying Information-centric Networks

Special Session URL:
[TBA]

Information-centric network (ICN) has gained considerable attention both in academia and industry.
This special session calls for recent research, practical experiences, and development lessons in deploying ICN in current and emerging networking environments.
The research can be in ICN specific clean-slate architectures such as CCN/NDN, MobilityFirst, NetInf, XIA, PSIRP/PURSUIT, COMET, or can be based on enhancements to existing protocols like HTTP. ICN deployment can be realized in a clean-slate approach or as an overlay over IP, and may leverage emerging architectures such as SDN and NFV for less disruptive deployment. Practical experience on deploying ICN for novel applications are particularly welcome, such as Enterprise applications, Novel data-center networking architecture leveraging caching and multicasting, and Big-data analytics.

The contributions requested include but are not limited to:

*Platforms/Architecture/Solutions for ICN Application/Service Deployment
*Application Domain specific (HomeNets, M2M/IoT, Conferencing, Data Centers etc.) ICN-based Solutions and Performance Evaluation
*Context-aware ICN
*ICN Economics Challenges
*ICN Network Management Challenges and Co-Existence with Current Services
*ICN for consumer networks and devices, such as Smart Devices (Phones, Tablets, TV etc)/Set-top Box
*Novel applications with ICN in consumer networks
*Case study in ICN deployment and experiments
*Security and privacy considerations in ICN solutions

We encourage submissions of high-quality technical papers reporting original research that has not been previously published, and is not currently submitted for consideration elsewhere. The special session papers will be treated the same as the main technical track papers in terms of formatting, reviewing, quality control, inclusion into proceedings, author registration and attendance.
