Home Program Call for Papers (closed) Local Arrangements & Registration Committee	Thank you for making NEMA a success! Slides from the keynotes and most technical papers are now posted on the Program page Workshop proceedings will be mailed to the registered workshop attendees as soon as they become available (see also the Springer Web site). Please return to this site in the future for announcements concerning a 2^nd edition of NEMA in 2011. PDF flyer What if your network, and devices inside your network, had a brain? A brain that allowed them not only to perform their pre-programmed functions, but that would allow them to provide additional intelligent functions, embedded right inside the network, not just in systems that are connected to the network? What if this intelligence would furthermore be programmable – how would you make use of such capabilities? This is the topic that the First International Workshop on Network Embedded Management and Applications (NEMA 2010) is setting out to explore. NEMA 2010 is dedicated to the topic of network-embedded management and applications. It explores how the new emerging infrastructure of network devices that are programmable can best be leveraged and the related research questions this poses. One trend points towards systems that are increasingly autonomous and to a certain degree self-managing.  The next frontier lies in applications that go beyond traditional management and control functions and that are becoming increasingly decentralized, not constrained in scope to individual systems.  At the same time, another trend looks at utilizing increased programmability of networks to add more networking intelligence outside, not inside the network. The goal of this workshop is to provide a platform at which researchers and practitioners can discuss the latest trends and ongoing research in network-embeddable applications and contrast different emerging approaches of how to best leverage increased network programmability.  The workshop is technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society and IFIP. NEMA will be held in conjunction and co-located with CNSM (6^th International Conference on Network and Service Management, formerly known as MANWEEK). The proceedings of the workshop will be published by Springer. In addition, authors of selected papers from the workshop may be invited to contribute an expanded version as a contributed chapter in a forthcoming book by Springer on the same topic. Questions?
