========================================================================
IEEE International Conference on Computer Communication Networks (ICCCN)
      Track on Network Architecture and P2P protocols (NAPP)

                  Maui, Hawaii, July 31 - August 4, 2011

========================================================================

CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------
As we advance into an era of ubiquitous computing and interactivity,
network architectures that enable efficient global communication and
effective resource sharing are becoming key to sustaining such
capabilities. Efficient and scalable network architectures for large
scale distributed systems and grids provide the necessary
infrastructure for truly worldwide computing. At the same time, well
designed peer-to-peer communication capabilities can allow end-users
to interact with this infrastructure for supporting any-time and
any-place services on a ubiquitous platform. Techniques that allow the
advancements of such capabilities can have significant impact on the
next generation of computational devices. Please join us in a
discussion of new ideas, experiences, and the latest trends in these
areas.

SUBMISSIONS
-----------
