[NANOG-announce] Reminder to Submit Presentations for NANOG 91

Thu Mar 7 16:30:50 UTC 2024

NANOG Community,

The NANOG Program Committee (PC) would like to remind you that we are
accepting proposals for in-person or live remote presentations at all
sessions of NANOG 91, taking place in Kansas City, MO on 10-12 Jun 2024.
Below is a summary of key details and dates from the Call For Presentations
on the NANOG website, which can be found at
https://www.nanog.org/program/call-presentations/.

Requested Topics:

We are aiming to showcase presentations throughout NANOG 91 focusing on
Cloud Operations. Topics can range from best practices, to “what I learned
setting up my cloud network”, a  panel discussion on how ISPs, Research +
Education, Enterprise and other industry sectors use the cloud; and/or
security in the cloud.

Based on feedback from our recent surveys, we have seen numerous requests
for the following topics:

   -

   Network Automation - practical uses, how to get started
   -

   Kubernetes - implementation and best practices
   -

   Future of Networking - forecast for changes in technology, design,
   applications
   -

   Research & Education - what research is happening now in network
   operations
   -

   Security - various protocols of, developments in, problems/solutions
   -

   Optical Networking - technology, practice, deployment options
   -

   Tutorials - all levels, IPv6, BGP, Segment Routing, DNS, MPLS, VXLAN

We are looking to schedule 1,600 minutes of content between General Session
and Breakout Rooms for NANOG 91, and have confirmed 75 minutes to date - so
don’t wait!   Presentation abstracts and draft slides should be submitted
no later than Monday, 22 Apr 2024 to be considered for NANOG 91.

Presentations may cover current technologies, soon-to-be deployed
technologies, and industry innovation. Vendors are welcome to submit talks
which cover relevant technologies and capabilities, but presentations
should not be promotional or discuss proprietary solutions.

The primary speaker, moderator, or author should submit a presentation
proposal and abstract via the Program Committee Tool at:
https://www.nanog.org/meetings/submit-presentation/

Timeline for submission and proposal review:

   Submitter enters abstract (and draft slides if possible) in the Program
   Committee Tool prior to the deadline for slide submission.

   PC performs initial review and assigns a “shepherd” to help develop the
   submission — typically within 2 weeks.
   -

   Submitter develops draft slides of talk, if not already submitted with
   the initial proposal. Please submit initial draft slides early — the PC
   does not evaluate submissions until draft slides are available for review.
   NANOG Staff is available to assist with slide templates upon request from
   the submitter.
   -

   Panel and Track submissions should provide a topic list and
   intended/confirmed participants in the abstract.
   -

   PC reviews the slides and continues to work with Submitter as needed to
   develop the topic.
   -

   FINAL SUBMISSION DEADLINE Draft presentation slides should be submitted
   prior to the published deadline for slides (22 Apr 2024).

   -

   Agenda assembled and posted.

   deadline for slides (03 Jun 2024 for in person + live remote presentations).

If you think you have an interesting topic but want feedback or suggestions
for developing an idea into a presentation, please email the PC (
nanogpc at nanog.org), and a representative will respond to you in a timely
manner. Otherwise, submit your talk, tutorial, track, or panel proposal to
the Program Committee Tool at your earliest convenience. We look forward to
