Modern network devices are becoming increasingly intelligent and

programmable. Examples range from router scripting environments to fully

programmable server blades. As a result, networked applications are no

longer constrained just to servers that are interconnected via a

network, but can migrate into and become embedded within the network

itself. The next frontier lies in applications that go beyond

traditional management and control functions and that are becoming

increasingly decentralized, not constrained in scope to individual

systems. Examples include decentralized monitoring, gossip-based

configuration, network event correlation inside the network across

multiple systems, overlay control protocols, and network-aware

multi-media applications. At the same time, the trend of

software-defined networks looks at utilizing increased

programmability of networks to separate traditional device software

architectures and add more networking intelligence outside, not inside

the network.

The goal of the second edition of NEMA is to provide a platform at which

researchers and practitioners can discuss the latest trends and ongoing

research in network-embeddable applications and contrast different

emerging approaches of how to best leverage increased network

programmability. The program committee would like to encourage

submissions in this area. Topics of interest include but are not limited

to:

Enabling concepts

- Programmable networking infrastructure

- Centralized concepts, eg OpenFlow

- Decentralized concepts, eg peer-to-peer and ad-hoc networking

- Open Router Platforms

New networking paradigms

- Network embedded applications

- Services implemented at the network element level instead of central

servers

- Client-server concepts that implement parts of a service at the network

level

- Software-defined Networking

- Network-enabling the Cloud

- Intelligent networking inside the Cloud

- Context and energy-aware networking; Embedded Green

- Content-centric networking

- DPI (Deep Packet Inspection) enabled management and control applications

New management paradigms - network embedded management

- Decentralized management algorithms

- Intelligent network instrumentation

- Network management implications of programmable network devices

- Instrumentation and manageability integration of network-embedded

applications

- Enhanced IPFIX concepts

The workshop is technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society

and IFIP. The proceedings of the workshop will be published with IEEE

Xplore.
