Call for Papers
NEW PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: JUNE 6
The Third Latin American Network Operations and Management Symposium -
LANOMS, to be held in Iguassu Falls (Foz do Iguaçu), Brazil, is the
result of the great success of both LANOMS'1999 which was held
in Rio de Janeiro and LANOMS'2001 which was held in Belo Horizonte, as
well as the other events in the area of network management known as NOMS
and APNOMS. NOMS (Network Operations and Management Symposium) was
originally created 13 years ago, and nowadays constitutes a worldwide
event for the researches in the area of network management. The
Asia/Pacific community promoted the APNOMS (Asia-Pacific Network
Operations and Management Symposium), which is an event more oriented
to the research and development community in that region. Continuing
the success of the second LANOMS, we will promote the third edition of
LANOMS (http://www.inf.ufpr.br/lanoms)
on September 4-6 2003, in Iguassu Falls, Paraná, Brazil.
The symposium is a promotion of the Federal University of Paraná
(UFPR), Brazil, technically co-sponsored
by IEEE Communications Society, and supported
by IEEE Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management
(CNOM).
The main goal of LANOMS is to create a forum more specific to the
necessities of Latin America in the area of network management
involving networking and telecommunication companies, academic
institutions and equipment vendors. LANOMS is an event open to
participants from all over the world who are interest in having, or
already have, research or commercial liaisons in Latin America - one
of the fastest growing regions in the world in networking. This year,
we intend to increase the submissions from North America, Europe,
Africa and Asia.
