IAB / IRTF Workshop on
Congestion Control for Interactive
Real-Time Communication
July 28, 2012
Vancouver, Canada
 
The IAB and IRTF will hold a workshop on Congestion Control for Interactive 
Real-Time Communication" in Vancouver, Canada on Saturday, July 28th, 2012 
prior to the IETF-84 meeting (see http://www.ietf.org/meeting/84/index.html).  
Participation at the workshop is free of charge. There is no requirement to 
either register with or attend the IETF-84 meeting that follows the workshop.
 
The workshop organizers would like to foster a discussion on:
What are appropriate congestion signals to use for interactive media and data?
What existing congestion control algorithms are appropriate for interactive 
media and data? What properties would be desirable in new congestion control 
algorithms?
Measurement and/or simulations of new congestion signals (e.g., delay-based) 
and their interaction with existing congestion control mechanisms.
What are good available techniques for adjusting sending rates for interactive 
media and data? What are the limits of those techniques? What properties would 
be desirable in new techniques?
What application-specific considerations have to be taken into account?
How can we ensure that real-time communications are well-behaved with respect 
to other Internet applications while still providing good quality?
What should the IETF and/or IRTF do?
The organizers seek position papers on any or all of these topics, as well as 
other topics related to congestion control for interactive realtime media.
 
Every prospective workshop participant must submit a position paper containing 
a name and an email address. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to the 
workshop. Papers up to 3 pages, formatted in HTML, PDF, or plain text (for 
example, as a submitted Internet-Draft) are ideal. Accepted position papers 
will be published.  Additional details about the meeting venue will be provided 
to authors of accepted papers.

To sponsors: If you are interested to help us working towards better 
interactive media congestion control mechanisms on the Internet (such as by 
making a contribution towards catering costs and room rental), please contact
