Fifth International Workshop on Distributed Autonomous Network Management
Systems DANMS 2012, co located with NOMS2012 Maui, Hawaii, USA.
www.danms.org
This workshop is part of a series of workshops dedicated to advances in network
management and the application of new management principles in network design.
This year's workshop places a particular emphasis on "Making sense of
monitoring data to support managed next-generation services".
The growth of demand for user services is a key characteristic of modern and
future ICT and telecommunications networks. New services have driven up network
usage, but have also created huge network management problems for the
operators, while end-users increasingly expect stream-lined and seamless
network connectivity optimized for their services. Current approaches of
monitoring and managing individual parts of telecommunications networks are
still mostly agnostic to the diverse services using the network, or are
optimized for voice services. Many management tools cannot even detect which
services are operating on the network, much less support service-specific
management objectives. Giving service providers access to the monitoring and
management mechanisms of the network is not practical, given the multitude of
heterogeneous networks involved, and the security, privacy, availability and
regulatory oversight requirements inherent in managing a large network.
Therefore it is the responsibility of the network managers to monitor and
manage the services running over their networks based on the monitoring,
analysis, planning and reconfiguration resources already available to them.
Even though managing the network is already a challenge, additionally managing
the services running over the networks is a key challenge that must be
addressed in a timely manner. This year DANMS will particularly address how
(semi-)automated analysis of network monitoring data, and planning of network
management actions, can be applied to monitor, manage and support the services
using the network.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
* Data-mining of network / service monitoring data
* Predictive analytics for network / service management
* Recommender systems for network / service management planning
* Efficient use of service monitoring data captured at the service
endpoints
* Service and resource modeling approaches for service and network
management
* Management and assurance of Home Area Networks and HAN services
* Use of semantics to enable service deployment, composition, and quality
assurance
* Aspects of service management and assurance
* Techniques for efficient gathering, distributing and processing
monitoring data
* Automated service provisioning and/or management across multiple service
providers
* Techniques for lifting low-level network monitoring data to richer
service level information
* Insights from using Complex Event Processing and Stream Processing for
monitoring data
* Fault and performance management, diagnosis, and troubleshooting
* End-to-end QoS and performance monitoring and management for enterprise
networks
* Measurements and insights from network operations
* Metrics, techniques, and experiments for evaluating network management
architectures
* Convergence of fixed and mobile networks
* SLA driven management
* Cloud computing for network and service monitoring and management
* Service Level Management in grids and clouds
Academic and industrial researchers are invited to submit full papers (6 pages)
describing original work relating to the topics presented. All manuscripts must
be written in English and should be prepared in IEEE style. All submitted
papers will be reviewed by the DANMS Technical Program Committee.
