Technically co-sponsored by the IEEE/IFIP/WG 6.6

******************************************************************************

The 6th Latin American Network Operations and Management Symposium
(LANOMS 2009) will be held on October 19th-21st, 2008 at the Conrad
Resort & Casino in Punta del Este, Uruguay. LANOMS 2009 will offer the
latest technical advances in all aspects of the operation and
management of distributed infrastructures, including networks,
application services and distributed systems in general. LANOMS has
been held in odd-numbered years since 1999 and pursues the tradition
of the NOMS and APNOMS events.

LANOMS 2009 is promoted by the University of the Republic of Uruguay
(UdelaR). It aims to be the primary forum in Latin America for the
exchange of ideas and results among the research, standards, vendor
and user communities in the field of operations and management. The
symposium is co-sponsored by the International Federation for
Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 6.6 on Management of
Networks and Distributed Systems , and by the IEEE Communications
Society Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management
(CNOM).

Several types of sessions will be held at LANOMS 2009.

Technical sessions will be held for the presentation of full
scientific papers discussing recent research results.
Poster sessions are directed for more informal interactions and
presenting work in progress. Short papers can be submitted for
consideration as poster presentations. Posters will be selected from
these short papers and full papers.
Application sessions aim to complement the Technical Sessions with
contributions that emphasize practical experiences and lessons learnt
in conjunction with management technology. They will focus on aspects
such as real-world deployment scenarios, experiences with the
management of new services and technology, industrial applications of
management technology, implementation examples of new management
technology, organizational impact, and business cases. The intended
audience especially includes decision makers and experts from
industry.

Travel Grants:

Thanks to the supporting organizations, LANOMS 2009 has a travel
grants program. Authors of outstanding papers can apply. Please
contact Travel Grants Chair Martin Giachino at giachino@fing.edu.uy

Paper submissions:

Paper submissions will undergo a rigorous review process performed by
the Technical Program Committee, which includes the most respected
experts in the field. We encourage the submission of papers that
present new research results or that present insightful results based
