Purpose and Format

The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for presenting and discussing very recent work in high-speed networking and to raise relevant issues to the general networking community in a timely manner. It will take place from 8:30 AM until 5:00 PM with lunch provided. There will be an open business meeting of the Technical Committee on Gigabit Networking following the workshop at 5:00 PM.
The workshop will consist of a keynote speech, followed by a number of short informal presentations grouped into topical sessions, followed by a panel session.
All issues relating to high bandwidth networking are relevant, including link layer protocols for optical and wireless networks, large fast switch and router design, transport and higher layer protocols, host and network interface architecture, operating systems, emerging services and applications, testbeds and deployment, network control and management, economic and regulatory issues, security and privacy, and other societal impacts. We are particularly interested in issues related to networks that can be scaled to a high (number of users) x (throughput per user) product.

Sessions

Presentations are planned to be grouped into the following topical sessions:
