REMINDER: Call for Papers, IAB/IRTF Congestion Control Workshop

["IAB Chair" <[e-mail]>]

Call for Papers


The IAB and IRTF will hold a workshop on "Congestion Control for Interactive
Real-Time Communication" in Vancouver, Canada on Saturday, July 28th, 2012
prior to the IETF-84 meeting.  More information on the workshop is available
at http://www.iab.org/cc-workshop/

This is an invitation-only workshop.

Every prospective workshop participant must submit a position paper. The
position paper reflects your views on a particular area of the workshop
theme. We are interested in your opinion as an expert rather than your
official company position. Keep your submission short and focused. If your
expertise allows you to write about a range of topics, pick the one topic
you think would bring the most value to the workshop. Authors of accepted
papers will be invited to the workshop. Papers up to 3 pages, formatted in
HTML, PDF, or plain text (for example, as a submitted Internet-Draft) are
ideal.  Accepted position papers will be published.

Please use the following Website for submitting your papers:
