Call for Papers: RIPE 67
A RIPE Meeting is an open event where Internet Service Providers,
network operators and other interested parties get together. Although
the meeting is mostly technical, it is also a chance for people to meet
and network with others in their field.
RIPE 67 will take place on 14-18 October 2013 in Athens, Greece.
The RIPE Programme Committee (PC) is now seeking content proposals from
the RIPE community for the Plenary, BoF and Tutorial sessions at RIPE
67. The PC is looking for presentations covering topics of network
engineering and operations, including but not limited to:
- IPv6 deployment
- Managing IPv4 scarcity in operations
- Commercial transactions of IPv4 addresses
- Data center technologies
- Network and DNS operations
- Internet governance and regulatory practices
- Network and routing security
- Content delivery
- Internet peering and mobile data exchange
Submissions
Attendees of the RIPE meetings are quite sensitive to keeping
presentations non-commercial, and product marketing talks are strongly
discouraged. Repeated audience feedback shows that the most successful
talks focus on operational experience, research results, or case
studies. For example, presenters wishing to describe a commercial
solution should focus on the underlying technology and not attempt a
product demonstration.
Presenters who are proposing a panel or BoF are encouraged to include
speakers from several (perhaps even competing) companies and/or a
neutral facilitator.
In addition to presentations selected in advance for the Plenary, the
RIPE PC also offers several time slots for “Lightning Talks” which are
selected immediately before or during the conference.
The following requirements apply:
- Proposals for Plenary talks, BoFs, Panels and Tutorials must be
submitted for full consideration no later than 4 August 2013, using the
meeting submission system at:
https://ripe67.ripe.net/submit-topic/
Proposals submitted after this date will be considered on a
space-available basis.
- Presenters should indicate how much time they will require (30 minutes
for Plenary talks is a common maximum duration, although some talks can
be longer).
- Proposals for talks will only be considered by the PC if they contain
at least draft presentation slides (slides may be updated later on). For
panels, proposals must contain a clear description as well as names of
invited panelists, presenters and moderators.
- Due to potential technical issues, it is expected that most if not all
presenters/panelists will be physically present at the RIPE meeting.
- Tutorials are sessions with educational content and are alotted about
2 hours.
- BOFs (Birds of a Feather sessions) are informal gatherings on topics
of shared interest among RIPE Meeting attendees. Technical facilities
and logistical support are limited and
provided based on best effort and availability.
- Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission
system. They must be short (10 minutes maximum) and often involve more
timely topics. They can be submitted at any time. The allocation of
lightning talk slots will be announced one day prior to the relevant
session.
If you have any questions or requests concerning content submissions,
please email pc [at] ripe [dot] net.
