CALL FOR PAPERS
The 8th ACM/IEEE Symposium on Architectures
for Networking and Communications Systems
ANCS 2012
http://www.ancsconf.org
October 29-30, 2012
AT&T Conference Center
University of Texas
Austin, Texas, USA
IMPORTANT DATES:
Paper registration and abstract: May 18, 2012
Submission deadline: May 25, 2012
Author notification: August 18, 2012
CONFERENCE OVERVIEW:
ANCS is a systems-oriented research conference, presenting original
work that explores the relationship between the architecture of modern
computer networks and the architecture of the individual hardware and
software elements from which these networks are built. This year's
conference will particularly emphasize insight into broader systems
issues in its paper selection, to recognize and foster the growth of
research that lies at the intersection of computer and network systems
architecture.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* System design for future network architectures
* Network architectures enabled by converged platforms
* Virtualized infrastructure architectures, rationale, and devices
* Converged router, server, and storage platforms
* Content-centric architectures, platforms, and mechanisms
* Scalable programming and application frameworks
* High performance / high function packet processing platforms
* Power- and size-optimized computer and communications platforms
* High-speed networking mechanisms and algorithms
* Network security architectures and security anchor/enhancement
devices
* Single-chip platform integration
* Network measurement techniques, architectures, and devices
* Techniques and systems for large-scale data analysis
* Host-network interface issues
* Architectures for data centers
* Router and switch architectures
* Software radios
* Wireless-networking hardware and related software
SUBMISSION PROCEDURES:
Papers must be registered, with a title and abstract, no later than
May 18, 2011 at 11:59PM EST (US). The deadline for submissions of full
papers is May 25, 2011 at 11:59PM EST (US). There will be no extensions
of this deadline.
Please see the conference web site for detailed submission guidelines
<http://www.ancsconf.org/>
Notification of Acceptance: August 18, 2012
The Program Committee may choose to accept certain papers conditionally,
based on a shepherding process.
SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:
ANCS 2010 will use single-blind reviewing, so submitted papers should
include the authors' names.
Submit papers using a 10pt font on 12pt leading formatted for printing on
Letter-sized (8.5" by 11") paper. Paper text blocks must follow ACM
guidelines: double-column, with each column 9.25" by 3.33", 0.33" space
between columns. Each column must contain no more than 55 lines of text.
Latex and Word templates, and additional submission requirements, are
available via <http://www.ancsconf.org>. ANCS submissions
must be no longer than 12 pages. The PC may choose to reject any paper
that violates these format requirements, and no deadline extensions will
be allowed for re-formatting.
We encourage submissions containing original ideas that are relevant
to the scope of ANCS. Like other conferences, ANCS requires that papers
not be submitted simultaneously to any other conferences or publications;
that submissions not be previously published in peer-reviewed conferences;
and that accepted papers not be subsequently published elsewhere. Papers
describing work that was previously published in a peer-reviewed workshop
are allowed, if the authors clearly describe what significant new content
has been included.
All submissions will be treated as confidential prior to publication
in the proceedings; rejected submissions will be permanently treated as
confidential.
POSTER SESSION:
ANCS 2012 will include a poster session. Submission deadlines and guidelines
will be announced at a later date on the conference web site
<http://www.ancsconf.org/>.
