7TH INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

October 25-28, 2009 - Washington, D.C., USA

http://www.drcn2009.org

PURPOSE:

DRCN is a well established bi-lineal forum for scientists, engineers,

designers and planners from industry and academy who have interest in

reliability and availability of communication networks, end systems

and related topics. From equipment and technology for survivability to

network management and public policy, through theory and techniques

for survivable and robust network and application design, the aim of

the conference is to bring together people from those disciplines in a

lively forum. We hope you will join us in Washington, D.C. USA during

October 25-28, 2009.

SCOPE:

We seek papers that address theoretical, experimental, systems-related

and regulatory issues in the area of dependability and survivability

of communication networks, end-systems and infrastructure. Topics of

interest include, but are not limited to:

* Methodologies, equipment and technology for wired/wireless network

survivability

* Basic methods and theory for survivable network and systems design,

modeling and operation

* Multi-Layer and differentiation protection

* Fault management, monitoring and control

* Security issues in network reliability and its interdependence to

survivability

* Applications and services oriented survivability techniques (e.g,

P2P, multicast)

* Restoration of services under different types of failures

* Public policy issues for survivability and resilience

* Reliability to emerging technologies, (e.g., data centers, SCADA and

process control systems)

* Survivable network management and/or network planning

* Network resiliency to software attacks

PAPER SUBMISSION:

Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor currently

under review by another conference or journal. All papers for DRCN

2009 must be submitted electronically via the EDAS system

http://edas.info/. Please refer to the DRCN website for detailed

instructions on preparing and submitting the manuscript. All papers

will be peer reviewed by three TPC members. Accepted papers will

appear in the conference proceedings published by IEEE. Pagelength is

limited to 8-pages in

two-column IEEE format.

Proposals for Tutorials are also being solicited. Tutorials (half-day

sessions) are intended to provide in-depth learning on a specific

topic of interest to the participants. Proposals for Tutorials should

consist of 1000 words summary, a 150 word abstract, and a cover page

listing the details of the presenter(s). Please contact the tutorial

chair (email: yqianieee.org) directly to submit proposals for

tutorials, before May 15, 2009.

IMPORTANT DATES:

April 1, 2009 Full Paper submission

May 15, 2009 Tutorial proposals due

June 15, 2009 Notification of acceptance

August 15, 2009 Camera Ready Final paper due
