Networking is rapidly evolving. The development of concepts like Information Centric Networking, and the emergence of technologies like Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) enable a much more flexible operation of networks and management of resources. Network and service architectures seek to utilize this flexibility in a meaningful and efficient way. This requires the development of new tools for understanding and modeling traffic and associated functions, taking into account reliability, orchestration capabilities, function and content placement, and performance.
This area is calling for papers addressing these and similar questions.
