  IAB / IRTF Workshop on
  Congestion Control for Interactive
  Real-Time Communication


    July 28, 2012
    Vancouver, Canada

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 (see 
http://www.ietf.org/meeting/84/index.html 
<http://www.ietf.org/meeting/83/index.html>).  Participation at the 
workshop is free of charge. There is no requirement to either register 
with or attend the IETF-84 meeting that follows the workshop.

The workshop organizers would like to foster a discussion on:

 1. What are appropriate congestion signals to use for interactive media
    and data?
 2. What existing congestion control algorithms are appropriate for
    interactive media and data? What properties would be desirable in
    new congestion control algorithms?
 3. Measurement and/or simulations of new congestion signals (e.g.,
    delay-based) and their interaction with existing congestion control
    mechanisms.
 4. What are good available techniques for adjusting sending rates for
    interactive media and data? What are the limits of those techniques?
    What properties would be desirable in new techniques?
 5. What application-specific considerations have to be taken into account?
 6. How can we ensure that real-time communications are well-behaved
    with respect to other Internet applications while still providing
    good quality?
 7. What should the IETF and/or IRTF do?

The organizers seek position papers on any or all of these topics, as 
well as other topics related to congestion control for interactive 
realtime media.

Every prospective workshop participant must submit a position paper 
containing a name and an email address. 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.  Additional details 
about the meeting venue will be provided to authors of accepted papers.


    Important Dates

Position paper submission deadline:          June 23, 2012
Notification to paper authors:                       June 30, 2012
Workshop date:                                             July 28, 2012

    To sponsors: If you are interested to help us working towards better
    interactive media congestion control mechanisms on the Internet
    (such as by making a contribution towards catering costs and room
    rental), please contact us!

In case of questions please send email to mary.ietf.barnes at gmail.com.
