NANOG28 Call for Presentations
June 1-3, 2003
Salt Lake City, Utah
The North American Network Operators' Group (NANOG) will hold its 28th
meeting June 1-3, 2003, in Salt Lake City. The meeting will be hosted
by the Utah Education Network and the University of Utah.
NANOG conferences provide a forum for the coordination and dissemination
of technical information related to large-scale (i.e.,
national/international) Internet backbone networking technologies and
operational practices. Meetings are held three times each year, and
include two days of short presentations, plus afternoon/evening tutorial
sessions. The meetings are informal, with an emphasis on relevance to
current backbone engineering practices. NANOG conferences draw over 450
participants, mainly consisting of engineering staff from national service
providers, and members of the research and education community.
NANOG invites presentations on backbone engineering, coordination, and
research topics. Presentations should highlight issues relating to
technology already deployed or soon to be deployed in core Internet
backbones and exchange points.
Network operators are invited to present case studies detailing
their experiences with network planning and design, protocol
implementation, provisioning, automation, useful tools, traffic
engineering, troubleshooting, problems solved, and DoS.
Researchers are invited to present short (10-minute) summaries of their
work for operator feedback. Topics include routing, network
performance, statistical measurement and analysis, and protocol
development and implementation. Studies presented may be works in
progress. Researchers from academia, government, and industry are
encouraged to present.
Previous meetings have included presentations on:
- Backbone traffic engineering
- Freely available configuration, management, and
measurement tools
- Impact of BGP dynamics on backbone traffic patterns
- Route processor architecture
- Inter-provider security and routing protocol
authentication
- Large-scale wireless deployment
- Routing scalability in backbone infrastructures
- Security issues for the Internet core
- Routing policy specification and backbone router
configuration
- Building large-scale measurement infrastructure
- Experience with differentiated services
- Inter-domain multicast deployment
- Backbone network failure analysis
Tutorials have covered topics such as:
- BGP troubleshooting techniques
- ISP security: real-world techniques
- IPv6 deployment concepts
- BGP multihoming
How to Present
See the How to Give a Presentation at NANOG section
for complete submission guidelines.
The deadline for proposals is April
21, 2003. While the majority of speaking slots will be filled by April
21, a limited number of slots will be available after that date for
topics that are exceptionally timely and important. Submissions will be
reviewed by the NANOG Program Committee, and presenters will be
notified of acceptance by May 5. Final drafts of presentation slides
are due by May 21, and final versions May 28.
NANOG also welcomes suggestions/recommendations for tutorials, panels,
and other presentation topics.
