The IETF's Multipath TCP (MPTCP) working group is organising a workshop with the OS and applications communities on the Saturday afternoon immediately before the IETF meeting in Maastricht (i.e. on 24th July) (http://www.ietf.org/meeting/78/index.html) If you would like to come, please register to mptcp-chairs@tools.ietf.org. Due to room size, numbers are limited and registration is required. Multipath TCP enables a single TCP connection to use multiple network interfaces and paths simultaneously for one TCP connection. From an applications perspective, this increases resilience and enables a basic form of connection mobility, whilst from an OS perspective it requires a change to the host TCP stack. IETF working group: http://www.ietf.org/dyn/wg/charter/mptcp-charter Supplemental information: http://nrg.cs.ucl.ac.uk/mptcp/ The objective of the workshop is to help make MPTCP real, i.e., to get it implemented in many operating systems and to get it used by key applications. This will be an interactive workshop with application designers (who would use MPTCP), OS implementors (who would implement and ship MPTCP) and MPTCP working group people (who are designing and standardising MPTCP). Note that this is not a passive "dissemination" workshop! The aim is to have an active discussion with the OS and applications communities about their requirements and needs, in order to influence and improve the MPTCP protocol design. The workshop will be highly interactive and focus on two topics: * On the one hand, it is to understand the process through which Multipath TCP could make its way into OSes. The OS implementers and active community members can explain their real world requirements and constraints on the various platforms. What are the potential stumbling blocks for MPTCP's implementation and how could the protocol designers lower the deployment barriers? * On the other hand, the WG would like to discuss the use cases for Multipath TCP with the applications community. What are the gotchas and how can the protocol designers increase the usefulness of MPTCP? Where & when? The workshop will be held on July 24, 2010 in Maastricht at the IETF meeting venue, "MECC", starting at 2pm (room to be confirmed). This is the Saturday afternoon before the start of the IETF week. We hope that remote participation will also be possible, via Webex. We would be pleased to hear feedback on the scope and purpose of the workshop. The workshop is organised under the auspices of the MPTCP working group, but is not a formal WG meeting - for instance, WG consensus calls will not be made. Best wishes, Philip Eardley Yoshifumi Nishida mptcp-chairs@tools.ietf.org
