Dear IPv6ers, (I hope this is not a noisy reminder) It's about three weeks before the submission deadline of the IPv6(+) workshop @ SIGCOMM 2007. The submission page @edas.info is now open and the CFP page has been updated accordingly (pasted below), so please let me remind you of this workshop. If you have any interesting research results on IPv6 development or deployment, this will be a very good opportunity to present it. We're looking forward to your submissions.
Thanks, JINMEI, Tatuya Communication Platform Lab. Corporate R&D Center, Toshiba Corp.

SIGCOMM 2007 Workshop "IPv6 and the Future of the Internet" 1. Motivation and rationale for the workshop This one-day workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to engage in an in-depth discussion on various research and deployment issues of IPv6 and their impact on the future of the Internet. In recent years the global deployment of IPv6 started taking off, especially in the Asian-Pacific area. To date IPv6 development efforts have mainly focused on protocol standardization, product development, and network operations, rather than as a research target. However, we believe that the accumulated experiences in these practices now provide interesting research opportunities, not only for those who have been involved in IPv6 development but also for the broader network research community. We expect the workshop to open a dialog between networking researchers and practitioners, and foster synergistic activities thereafter. 2. Call for Paper (CFP) ACM SIGCOMM IPv6 and the Future of the Internet (IPv6+) Workshop seeks papers describing significant research contributions to the field of IPv6 and their relevance on the future of the Internet. IPv6 was primarily motivated by the address shortage problem of IPv4. It provides a much larger address space than IPv4. However, the competing technology Network Address Translation (NAT) has alleviated the address shortage problem to some extent, and other problems, such as routing scalability, management, mobility, and security, have become increasingly prominent. At the mean time, the global deployment of IPv6 has gradually taken off. Modern operating systems are shipped with both IPv4 and IPv6 stacks, and IPv6-compatible backbones came into existence. As it is costly to migrate from one network architecture to another one, can we take this opportunity to address additional problems in the IPv4 Internet by extending the IPv6 protocol suite? What new problems are/were encountered in the process of deploying IPv6? And what lessons have we learned? We invite submissions that shed light on the above questions. Submissions in both academic and operational flavors are welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Experiences and lessons learned from pilot deployments of IPv6 networks and applications * Experimental and measurement results from operational IPv6 networks * Advantages and challenges the very large IPv6 address space bring to the Internet routing system * Scalable and robust solutions to multi-homing and traffic engineering * Host and Network Mobility * Multicast and Anycast protocols * Worms, DoS, and other security threats in IPv6 networks and possible enhancements to address these challenges. * IPv6's Applicability to sensor networks, low-power personal area networks, and other types of challenged networks * Impact on application development and deployment * A critical assessment of IPv6's viability as a global communication infrastructure for the future or of its fundamental limitations, if any. 3. Submission guideline Submissions must be no greater than 6 pages in length, must be a pdf file, and must follow the formatting guidelines at http://www.sigcomm.org/sigcomm2007/workshop-psg.html. Submissions that deviate from these guidelines will be rejected without consideration. Reviews will be single-blind: authors name and affiliation should be included in the submission. Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their papers at the workshop. Submissions must be original work not under review at any other workshop, conference, or journal. Please submit papers through the EDAS submission page <http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=5401&>. 4.
