                              LANOMS=B499
     
       IEEE Latin American Network Operations and Management Symposium
               Rio de Janeiro - Brazil, December 03 - 04, 1999.
             =20
                   "NETWORK MANAGEMENT FOR THE NEW WORLD"=20
                 =20
                              Call for Papers

                   =20
The First Latin American Network Operations and Management Symposium -=20 
LANOMS, to be held in Rio de Janeiro on the turn of the millennium=20
is the result of the great success of the events in the area of=20 
network management known as NOMS and APNOMS. NOMS (Network Operations=20 
and Management Symposium) was originally created ten years ago in=20
New Orleans, USA, and nowadays constitutes a worldwide event for=20 
the researches in the area of network management. Recently, the=20 
Asia/Pacific community promoted the APNOMS (Asia-Pacific=20
Network Operations and Management Symposium), which is an event more=20 
oriented to the research and development community in that continent.=20 
Within this context, we will promote the first LANOMS=20 
(http://www.lrg.ufsc.br/~lanoms99) in order to stimulate the=20 researches 
in Latin America. It is important to emphasize
that this event will be held in the same hotel and two days before the=20 
GLOBECOM.
     
In the last few years, we have been witnessing an increasing demand on=20 
topics associated with Network Management in national and international=20 
events, organized mainly in Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, and = 
Uruguay.=20
As a consequence, we observed in Latin America a solid necessity of a=20 
specific event where there might be room to debate the main issues = 
involving the=20
area of Network Management. For obvious reasons, the organization of=20 
LANOMS will be tuned with NOMS and APNOMS to even stimulate the = 
participation=20
of the Latin American community in these events. As LANOMS derives from 
NOMS, keeping its original characteristics, it will create a forum=20 
which is more specific to the requirements of Latin America in the area 
of Network Management involving telecommunication companies,=20
academic institutions, service providers and equipment vendors. Although 
organized in Latin America, LANOMS will be opened to participants=20 
(researchers, developers, investors, etc) from other continents
who are interested in having, or already have, research or commercial=20 
liaisons in Latin America. The objectives of LANOMS include, but are not 
limited to:
     
        * to satisfy an increasing necessity of organizing a specific=20
          event on network management in Latin America in order to=20 
          divulge the researches currently developed;
        * to identify the problems and solutions specific to the area=20
          of network management;
        * to make viable the solutions proposed by the international=20
          community to Latin America and vice-versa; and=20
        * to expose the potentialities of the Network Management area;
     
Submissions should be complete, full-length papers and should not exceed =
      =
=20
12 pages. Electronic submission of  papers is strongly encouraged. Full=20 
instructions for the electronic submissions will be available soon on =
