Workshop on Reducing Internet Latency

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 London, England

Introduction and Scope
----------------------
Latency tends to have been sacrificed in favour of headline bandwidth in the way the Internet has been built. This two-day invitation-only workshop<= br> aims to galvanise action to fix that. All layers of the stack are in scope.=

Latency is an increasingly important topic for networking researchers and Internet practitioners alike. Data from Google, Microsoft, Amazon and
others indicate that latency increases for interactive Web applications
result in less usage and less revenue from sales or advertising income.
Whether trying to provide platforms for Web applications, high-frequency stock trading, multi-player online gaming or 'cloud' services of an= y kind,
latency is a critical factor in determining end-user satisfaction and the success of products in the marketplace. Consequently, latency and
variation in latency are key performance metrics for services these days.
But latency reduction is not just about increasing revenues for big
business. Matt Mullenweg of WordPress motivates work on latency reduction well when he says, "My theory here is when an interface is faster, you=
feel good. And ultimately what that comes down to is you feel in control. The [application] isn=B9t controlling me, I=B9m controlling it. Ultimately<= br> that feeling of control translates to happiness in everyone. In order to increase the happiness in the world, we all have to keep working on this.&q= uot;

Invitations to attend the workshop will depend on receipt of a position
paper. In a spirit of co-ordination across the industry, submissions are encouraged from developers and network operators as well as the research and standards communities.

A wide range of latency related topics are in scope including, but not
limited to:
- =A0 =A0 =A0 surveys of latency across all layers
- =A0 =A0 =A0 analyses of sources of latency and severity/variability
- =A0 =A0 =A0 the cost of latency problems to society and the economy, or t= he value of
fixing it
- =A0 =A0 =A0 principles for latency reduction across the stack
- =A0 =A0 =A0 solutions to reduce latency, including cross-layer
- =A0 =A0 =A0 deployment considerations for latency reducing technology
- =A0 =A0 =A0 benchmarking, accreditation, measurement and market compariso= n practices

Submissions
-----------
This is an invitation-only workshop. Prospective participants must submit short (up to 2 pages) position papers outlining their views on a specific aspect of the overall scope. The emphasis here is on relevance and brevity<= br> - you do not need to write a lot of text, just demonstrate that you have thought about the problem space and have something interesting to say on the topic.

Please send position papers in PDF format to: latency@isoc.org

Participant numbers will be limited to focus on discussion and identifying<= br> actions rather than slideware.

Accepted position papers will be made public. A report on the workshop
will be published after participants have agreed the content. Therefore, it will be possible to state views during the workshop without them being publicly attributed.

Important Dates
---------------
Position paper submission deadline: 23 June 2013
Paper acceptance notification: 28 June 2013
Workshop dates: 9am, Tuesday 17th to 5pm, Wednesday 18th September 2013
