IEEE
Communications Magazine
Network & Service Management
Series
The series on Network and Service Management
is published twice a year,
with issues appearing in April and
October. The series intends to
provide articles on the latest
developments in this well-established and
thriving discipline.
Published articles are expected to highlight recent
research
achievements in this field and provide insight into theoretical
and
practical issues related to the evolution of network and
service
management from different perspectives. The series provide a
forum for
the publication of both academic and industrial research,
addressing the
state of the art, theory and practice in network and
service management.
Both original research and review papers are
welcome, in the style
expected for IEEE Communications
Magazine.
Articles should be of
tutorial nature, written in a
style
comprehensible to readers outside
the speciality of Network
and
Service Management. This series therefore
complements the newly
established IEEE Transactions on Network & Service
Management
(eTNSM)
— http://www.comsoc.org/etnsm/. General areas include
but
are not
limited to:
- Management models,
architectures
and frameworks
- Network and service
provisioning, reliability
and quality assurance
- Management
functions
- Management standards, technologies and
platforms
- Management policies
- Applications, case
studies and experiences
The above list is not
exhaustive, with submissions related to
interesting ideas broadly
related to network and service management
encouraged. IEEE
Communications Magazine is read by tens of thousands of
readers from
both academia and industry. The magazine has also been
ranked the
number one telecommunications journal according to the ISI
citation
database for year 2000, and the number three for year 2001.
The
published papers will also be available on-line through
Communications
Magazine Interactive, the WWW edition of the
magazine.
