About ACIG
Rooted from multimedia communications, the focus of
this IG is to stimulate world-wide researchers, who are
interested in Autonomic Communications, to make
greater efforts on in-depth and multi-disciplinary studies on
how self-management/governing can be achieved in next-generation
multimedia networks. By providing platforms for
idea exchange and information/resource sharing, and seeking
synergies of our members, we envisage reaching the goal of
self-tuning autonomic multimedia networks with high level of
autonomy and efficiency, and with minimum human management
complexity and user intervention.
ACIG's main activity is organizing sessions and workshops at IEEE
ComSoc conferences (specifically ICC, Globecom and CCNC). The following
areas represent some of the key concerns of multimedia
communications with autonomic flavors.:
- New network architectures with emphasis on
enabling autonomic features (often described as self-*) for multimedia
communications.
- Cross-layer designed and optimized,
situation-aware protocol stack that enables better QoS and resource
management from a holistic and systematic perspective, for IP-based rich
content delivery.
- Bio-inspired and organic principals of managing
ever-growing complexity and pursuing efficiency in multimedia
communications.
- Cross-disciplinary studies of ecological modeling, control
theory, agent technologies etc. and used them to form the
foundation of AutoComm algorithms.
