					Call for Papers


General Information

Cnet 2011 is the first workshop at ITC on complex network theory and its
application to communication engineering. The concept is arising from
random graph theory and statistical physics and constitutes a very
important, rapidly growing branch of modern teletraffic theory.

The workshop will cover all aspects of modeling, analysis,  and control of
complex infrastructures ranging from purely theoretical achievements to
practical applications regarding the design of next generation networks.

The objective is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners
working in different disciplines to present innovative theoretical results
and to illustrate recent development regarding modeling and analysis tools
to detect complex structures and to control them in a decentralized or
self-organized manner. Fresh ideas will be exchanged and open problems and
new directions will be discussed.

The workshop is co-located with the 23rd International Teletraffic
Congress (ITC 2011).

Topics

Cnet 2011 solicits novel unpublished material on modeling, analysis and
control of complex networks including (but not limited to) the following
topics:

    *
      Modeling and Analysis of Communication Infrastructures
          o analysis of random graph models and multiplicative stochastic
processes
          o percolation properties of equilibrium and growing networks
          o characterization, inference and evolution of topologies
          o robustness and vulnerability of network infrastructures
          o influence and  epidemic spreading in complex  networks
          o investigation of scalability properties
          o algebraic and graph-theoretical partitioning techniques and
spectral optimization of modularity concepts
          o formation  of communities  and their algorithmic detection

    *
      Control of Complex Networks
          o emergence properties of real networks
          o control methods and algorithms for complex networks
          o synchronization in  complex networks
          o signaling and distributed control protocols

    *
       Inference and Design Algorithms for NGNs
          o inference of complex network properties in deployed
infrastructures
          o structural inference and  analysis of the  user behavior in
social networks
          o immunization strategies for NGNs
          o tools supporting analysis, inference and   prediction of
complex networks

Submissions

Authors should prepare a PDF version of their paper not exceeding 8
double-column pages in IEEE conference format with a font size not smaller
than 10 points. They should submit the paper  electronically before the
deadline via EDAS at URL:
