ANCS is a research
conference that focuses on the architecture and design of hardware and
software for modern communication networks. The combination of increasing
network bandwidth and expanding functionality pose continuing and growing
challenges for system designers. New technology elements, including network
processors, content addressable memories, configurable logic and
special-purpose components offer new opportunities for meeting these
challenges, but also raise a variety of new issues. ANCS focuses on
networking and communication in the broad sense, including novel
architectures, architectural support for advanced communications systems,
algorithms and protocols for advanced architectures, software and
applications for next-generation networking architectures, and methodology
and benchmarking for evaluating advanced communication architectures. Our
emphasis this year will be on hardware and software elements in the context
of systems that enable networks to evolve and scale.
Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- System design for future Network Architectures
- Network/communications processors
- Intelligent co-processors
- Router architectures
- Emerging Technologies (e.g.,
optical components, etc.)
- Switch fabrics/interconnection networks
- Link scheduling, processor/thread scheduling,
switch scheduling
- Network adapters
- Application-specific networks (e.g., SAN, XML
Switching)
- Programmable /extensible networks
- Secure communication
- Traffic management
- Packet classification
- Content inspection and filtering
- Energy-efficient designs
The PAPER DEADLINE
for submissions is July 23, 2007 at 11:59PM PST (US). ANCS will use double-blind
reviewing, so submitted papers should not include the authors' names. Paper
registration and submission must be done electronically through EDAS (edas.info). Registration,
including the abstract, must be completed no later than July 16, 2007 at 11:59PM PDT (US).
All papers must be submitted in PDF format on letter-size paper. Submissions
must be viewable by Adobe Acrobat Reader (version 5.0 or higher) and should
not exceed 10 pages in ACM/SIG conference paper format using 10 pt font. Submissions exceeding the maximum limit will not be
reviewed by the program committee. Camera-ready versions of the accepted
papers will be required to use the ACM SIG format (www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html).
We encourage submissions containing original ideas. Like other conferences,
ANCS requires that papers not be submitted simultaneously to any other
conferences or publications; that submissions not be previously published;
and that accepted papers not be subsequently published elsewhere.
Notification of Acceptance: September
26, 2007.
