Please note the extended deadline and clarification of what is desired in statements of interest. Those who have submitted need take no action. Title Workshop on Internet Technology Adoption and Transition (ITAT) Date December 4-6(*) Place Cambridge, UK Who Should Attend Economists, management scientists, and other researchers interested in technology diffusion, computer scientists and engineers who are interested in improving likelihood of deployment success, and operators who can provide insights into their needs and challenges with regard to new technology. Prerequisite: A 3 - 10 page statement of interest (see new information below) Submission Deadline: August 29, 2013 Submission URL: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=itat-2013 Acceptance Date: September 11, 2013 (or earlier) The Internet is a complex ecosystem that encompasses all aspects of society. At its heart is a protocol stack with an hourglass shape, and IP at its center. Recent research points to possible explanations for the success of such a design and for the significant challenges that arise when trying to evolve or change its middle section. The difficulty in transitioning from IPv4 to IPv6 seems to illustrate this point. We have a number of other key examples of technology transition to consider, including the next generation of web technologies, including HTTP version 2 and real time communications on the web (WebRTC). The eventual success of many if not all of these protocols will largely depend on our understanding of not only what features and design principles contribute lasting value, but also on how early deployment strategies can succeed in unlocking that value to foster protocol adoption. The latter is particularly important in that most if not all Internet protocols exhibit significant externalities that create strong barriers to adoption, especially in the presence of a well-established incumbent. Taking into account RFC 5218, which discusses what makes a protocol successful, this workshop seeks to explore how the complex interactions of protocol design and deployment affect their success. One workshop goal is, therefore, to encourage discussions that lead to an understanding of what makes protocols designs successful, not only in fulfilling the initial design goals for the protocol, but more importantly in their ability to evolve with changing protocol goals and technology. Another equally important workshop goal is to develop protocol deployment strategies that enable new features to rapidly gain a foothold and ultimately realize broad adoption. Such strategies must be informed by both operational and economic factors. Suggested topics include * Economic / evolutionary models that can provide a view toward identification of the factors leading to a protocol's success in the field * Studies that evaluate existing deployments of protocols that have succeeded or failed * Operators' experiences about economics of deployment of new features (both successful or otherwise) * Intersection of policy and economics with respect to technology diffusion * Studies of standards organizations and their processes and the effects on technology diffusion * Strategies to foster rapid and cost-effective adoption Participation will be limited. Interested parties should submit a brief (3-10 page) statement of interest that describes ongoing or recent related research and experience on the topic, with an eye toward engaging a diverse audience. Please submit using the EasyChair conference management system at the following URL: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=itat-2013 Submissions are due no later than August 29, 2013. The IAB will inform those accepted no later than September 11th. The workshop itself will be between 2 and 2.5 days. Further information on this will follow.
