[dispatch] Fwd: [SIPForum-techwg] SIPNOC 2018 CFP Extended to August 7 -Submit Your SIPNOC 2018 Speaking Proposal Today!

[Mary Barnes <[e-mail]>]

I typically prefer not to have conference postings on WG mailing lists, but
I think this one is directly related that folks would be interested, so I'm
making this one posting.

If you have any questions, let me know.  This will be the 8th year of doing
this conference and there's always really interesting presentations.

Regards,
Mary.

SIP Forum TechWG Members:

We know many of you have been busy enjoying vacations and generally trying
to stay cool, so we decided to extend the deadline for SIPNOC 2018 Call for
Presentations until August 7, 2018.

So, if you’re interested in speaking at SIPNOC 2018, there’s still
time to submit
your proposal for a general sessions or panel discussion addressing the
deployment of SIP in service provider environments!

To view the official call for presentations, which includes instructions on
submitting material and specific SIPNOC policies, please visit
https://www.sipforum.org/news-events/sipnoc-2018-overview/
sipnoc-2018-call-for-presentations/. To submit, visit
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sipnoc2018.

Topics can include any issue relating to deploying, managing, and
monitoring SIP services and applications in a service provider environment,
including SIP peering, SIP trunking, Emergency Services, Congestion
Control, Scaling and Capacity Issues, SIP-based applications, Routing,
Security, SIP-Network Operations Center Best Practices, IPv6 deployment
challenges, User-agent Configuration, Standardization Issues and Progress,
HD voice deployments, Video Interoperability, WebRTC and SIP, Testing or
other issues facing SIP network operations.

SIPNOC 2018 offers several different types of speaking opportunities
including:

   - General Session Talks: A General Session presentation should be on a
   topic of interest to the general SIPNOC audience, and are generally 30
   minutes long (including time for Q&A).
   - General Session Panel Discussions: Panels are sessions with a
   moderator and a team of experts. The panel moderator should submit an
   abstract on the panel topic, a list of panelists, and how the panel will be
   organized. Panel selection is based on the importance, originality, focus
   and timeliness of the topic, expertise of proposed panelists, as well as
   the potential for informative and controversial discussion.
   - SIPNOC “Super-Sessions”: These run for 1-2 hours, providing time to
   focus in-depth on a variety of issues important to the SIPNOC community.
   Topics can include a review of SIP RFCs and standards development, the
   regulatory environment, etc.
   - Research Topics: Researchers are invited to present short summaries of
   their work for operator feedback. Topics may include call routing, network
   performance, statistical measurement and analysis and protocol development
   and implementation. Studies presented may be works in progress. Researchers
   from academia, government, and industry are encouraged to present.
   - BOFs: Birds of a Feather sessions are informal sessions on topics
   which are of interest to a portion of the SIPNOC community. BOFs may be
   held in break‐out areas or in an unscheduled room. Requests for scheduled
   BOFs can be made at any time, including on site at the conference.
