Scope
The objective of the Technical
Committee on Communications Switching and Routing (TC CSR) is to advance the
state of the art in theory and applications of information switching and
networking by the following:
- To bring together professionals with
interests in various aspects of Communications Switching and Routing such
as theory and architecture (B-ISDN/ATM, optical switching), teletraffic
theory, mobility and call control, signalling protocol, Intelligent
Networks and service features, switching software architecture,
management, economics, and applications of switching and routing systems.
- To provide a forum for discussion and
exchange of technical matters among members in the committee meetings,
special interest group meetings, topical meetings, and workshops.
- To sponsor technical sessions at
conferences and stimulate high quality technical papers for conferences and
IEEE publications.
- To organize special issues of IEEE
publications.
The topics of interest
include:
- circuit-switching and packet-switching
- optical switching and routing
- switching theory
- switch architecture
- functionality of switching systems
- traffic engineering and performance
analysis
- MPLS
- QoS and routing
- control architecture
- signalling protocols and networks
- call and mobility control
- software, services and features
- middleware for interoperability
- planning, economic factors and management
of switching systems and
- networks for information including voice,
data, and video
- security
- IP-related switching, including
softswitches
- Voice over IP (VoIP)
- IP telephony
- active networks
- next generation networks
- storage networks
- network processors
- routing in active networks and ad hoc
networks
