Second Call for Papers
ITC 2012
24th International Teletraffic Congress

*** Paper registration deadline: February 1, 2012 ***
OVERVIEW
The rapid evolution of communication and telecommunication industries
driven by technological advances and new business models calls for
continual reappraisal of the methods used for their analysis, control
and management. Over the past five decades, ITC has provided a forum for
leading researchers from academia and industry to address some of these
key methodological approaches for the design and control of networks
with increasing focus on applications. In addition to improving
efficiency and performance, there is also a need for understanding the
benefits and costs of emerging architectural shifts for the future
Internet. What network control and optimization issues are raised by
virtualization and cloud computing? What design principles might help
simplify migration of communication networks to become information
centric and flow-aware? What architectural elements and business models
are needed to meet user expectations for service quality, reliability
and security?
CONFERENCE TOPICS
ITC 24 solicits submission of original contributions in traditional
traffic and performance of computer communication networks as well as
emerging architectural topics outlined above. While technical
correctness is an obvious requirement, ITC 24 encourages contributions

innovative models and techniques. Specific topics of interest include,
but are not limited to:
