Workshop on Future Directions in Network Architecture (FDNA-03)

The current Internet architecture has been remarkably successful as the underpinning of a global, general-purpose, decentralized data communication network. Architectural decisions made 30 years ago have allowed the Internet to quickly support new applications and adapt itself to dramatic changes in technology. Now, new forces - new classes of special-purpose networks and the changing requirements facing general purpose networks - argue that reflection on the current state of network architecture and consideration of new architectural principles, structures, and strategies is timely. FDNA-03 is a forum for presenting research results, promising directions, and rising challenges related to the broad topic of new developments in network architecture.

Important Dates

• Submission deadline extensions of up to one week may be requested by email to fdna@lcs.mit.edu. All such requests must be received and acknowledged by the March 17th deadline. A paper title, abstract, and author list must be submitted by the March 17th deadline even if an extension is granted.
• Please note that the final paper due date, June 12, is earlier than that published in previous versions of the CFP. This is due to Sigcomm's decision to print a unified volume of workshop papers, to be available at the conference.
