-----------------------------------------------------------------
The IP communications domain has matured beyond providing VoIP only
services.  Universities, enterprises, businesses and individual
consumers routinely use VoIP.  The focus of IP communications is now on
the operations, management, administration and provisioning aspects of
large-scale, reliable and secure communication systems.  To this extent,
the research and standardization work now includes log file analysis,
session tracing across proxy meshes and overload control.  As IP
communications grapples with these issues, newer technologies in the
form of cloud-based IP communication systems; peer-to-peer VoIP
networks; use of IP communications in virtual worlds; social networks
and IP communications are starting to assert a strong presence in the IP
communications domain.

The aim of the IPTComm conference is to serve as a platform for
researchers from academia, research labs, industry and government to
share their ideas, views, results and experiences in the field of
IP-based telecommunication.  IPTComm will include presentations of
theoretical and experimental achievements, innovative systems,
prototyping efforts, case studies, and advancements in technology.

We invite authors to submit papers in the following and related areas:

New services and service models

     * Over-the-top services.
     * Social networking and IP communications.
     * IP telecommunications in virtual worlds.
     * Compositional services and model checking.
     * Cloud-based IP communications infrastructure.
     * Rapid application development frameworks.
     * APIs and enablers for IP communication services.
     * Browser-based IP communication services.
     * Context-aware communication services.
     * IMS and NGN services.

Management and Resilience

     * Advantages and disadvantages of IP communications as a P2P
       application.
     * Advances in P2P overlays for IP communications systems.
     * Management of IP communications systems and networks.
     * Overload management schemes for IP communications.
     * Log files and log file analysis for IP communication systems.
     * Scalability of large-scale IP communication systems.
     * Traffic and QoS measurement of VoIP traffic.
     * Self-tuning and self-monitoring IP communications systems.
     * Service discovery.
     * Energy consumption and energy management in IP communication
       systems.
     * Incentives in P2P IP communication systems.
     * Resilience in P2P IP communication system.

Security

     * Identity management for IP communications systems.
     * Anonymity and privacy in IP communications.
     * Forensics and diagnostics in IP communication systems.
     * Techniques to detect, mitigate and prevent SPIT, phreaking
       and vishing.
     * Denial of service detection and prevention.

Mobile IP Communications

     * Mobile IP communication services.
     * Mobility in cloud-based IP communications infrastructure.
     * Mobile P2P IP communication systems.

Miscellaneous

     * The role of IP communications in the power grid.
     * Open source development in IP communications.
     * Research issues in vertical IP communication markets (e.g.,
       privacy in the medical field, location in logistical
       field, etc.)
     * Regulatory issues in IP communications.

AUTHOR INFORMATION
==================
Papers submission is handled by EDAS (http://edas.info/N8459).

IPTComm solicits full papers up to 12 pages in length, in two-column ACM
conference format (see
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates).  All
submissions must describe original research, not published nor currently
under review for another conference or journal. The program committee
will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be published in the
conference proceedings. Pending cooperation agreements, papers will also
be published in the ACM Digital Library.

In 2010, IPTComm will be accepting short papers of at least 5 pages and
no more than 6 pages.  The aim of the short paper category is to help
maintain a published record of work carried out as well as facilitate
future affiliations and foster collaborative work.  Short papers are
subject to the same rigorous review process as full papers and follow
the same submission process, schedule and expectation of presentation as
the full papers.
