The IEICE (Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication

Engineers) Transactions on Communications announces a forthcoming

special section on "New Paradigm on Content Distribution and Sharing,"

to be published in October 2011.

[Overview]

High-speed network has been realizing rich multimedia services

including broadband audio and video contents. Coincidentally, novel

information distribution and sharing methods, such as content

distribution network (CDN), peer-to-peer (P2P) technology, grid

computing, and cloud computing, has been emerging and being used

extensively. On the other hand, we have also been faced with diverse

networks: future Internet, next generation networks (NGN), IP

multimedia subsystems (IMS), and wireless ad-hoc/sensor and mesh

networks. This special secsion is being planned (scheduled to appear

in the October 2011 issue) to discuss new paradigm on content

distribution and sharing. The submissions concerning new technique and

discovery for content distribution and sharing, new content

distribution methods on various types of network architecture, and

networking technology to support new content distribution and sharing,

are highly welcome.

[Scope]

This special section is aimed at timely dissemination of research in

these areas. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

* Content delivery

* Content distribution

* Content sharing

* Streaming technology

* Peer-to-peer (P2P)

* Overlay networking

* Content delivery network (CDN)

* Grid computing

* Cloud computing

* Traffic analysis

* Traffic control

* Load balancing

* Content distribution and sharing on next generation networks or future Internet

* Content distribution and sharing on wireless networks

* Networking technology considering content distribution and sharing
