   PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS

   Workshop on Delay Tolerant Networking (WDTN-05)
   (to be held with SIGCOMM 2005: Aug 20-26, 2005, Philidelphia, PA, USA)

   http://www.dtnrg.org/

************************************************************

Goals
Today, the most successful network architecture is that of the
Internet. It has scaled well beyond the original plan of its
designers, and the Internet Protocol has been carried on a great
number of underlying protocols, including itself. However, the
Internet's protocol architecture suffers some problems when
implemented on classes of networks for which it was not originally
designed. For example, when disconnection and reconnection is common,
or link performance is highly variable or extreme, one or more of the
traditional Internet protocols do not work well. In this workshop, we
wish to explore physical
networks that operate significantly differently from wired, connected
networks and the protocol architectures used to deal with such
situations, and techniques for making applications tolerant to
disruptions and/or high delays. More specifically, we solicit papers
in the following areas:

(a) Physical characteristics of performance-challenged neworks
(b) Networking systems operating over unusual/challenged networks
(c) Protocol design and evaluation of operations over challenged networks

Submissions ranging from presentations of specific systems or network
system performance to more general, philosophical position papers as
to what to do about them are welcome. Papers that bring out
interesting and novel ideas at an early stage in their development are
favored over highly polished, journalstyle
results. Selected papers will be forward - looking, with impact and
implications for ongoing or future research.

Paper Format and Submission Instructions
Submitted papers must be no more than 8 pages long, with no characters
in smaller than 10 point fonts. Papers will be reviewed single blind.
Submit papers via the WDTN-05 submission site:
