ITC provides a venue for researchers from academia and industry interested in design and control of communication networks, protocols, and applications. The rapid evolution in these areas, driven by technological advances and new business models, raises a critical need for continuous reappraisal of modeling, control and management mechanisms. For instance, as energy becomes an  increasingly important design criterion, new algorithms are needed to optimize the tradeoff between energy consumption and quality of service.

In addition to improving network efficiency and performance, there has recently been a significant interest in new network architectural principles. How should the lower layers be structured to best support content-centric networking? What network control and optimization issues are raised by virtualization and cloud computing? What architectural elements and business models are needed to meet user expectations for service quality, reliability and security in a cost-effective way?

Now annually held, ITC 2011 solicits submission of papers with original contributions, especially contributions that address novel issues, pioneer disruptive paradigms, or propose innovative models and techniques. Furthermore, papers that provide important insights on real world networking problems, e.g., based on measurements, application of analytical techniques or simulations, are strongly encouraged. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

PUBLICATIONS AND AWARDS

Submitted manuscripts must be unpublished and not be considered for publication elsewhere over the course of the review process. All paper registrations and submissions will be handled electronically via EDAS (http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=8968). Authors should prepare a PDF version, which should not exceed 8 double-column pages in IEEE conference format with a font size no smaller than 10 points. All accepted contributions will appear as full papers in the conference proceedings with oral presentations. In order to guarantee the high visibility of the conference, the proceedings will be available through IEEEXplore.

ITC 2011 plans to offers two prestigious awards: a Best Paper Award and a Best Student Paper Award. For a paper to be eligible in the latter category, a full-time student must be the first author at the time of submission of the paper, & is the presenter of the accepted paper at the conference.
