IFIP -The International Federation for Information Processing
IFIP was founded in 1960 under the auspices ofUNESCO, following the First World Computer
Congress held in Paris the previous year. An umbrella organization for societies working in
information processing, IFIP's aim is two-fold: to support information processing within its
member countries and to encourage technology transfer to developing nations. As its mission
statement clearly states,
IFIP's mission is to be the leading, truly international, apolitical organization which encourages
and assists in the development, exploitation and application of information technology for the
benefit of all people.
IFIP is a non-profitmaking organization, run almost solely by 2500 volunteers. It operates
through a number of technical committees, which organize events and publications. IFIP's
events range from an international congress to local seminars, but the most important are:
• The IFIP World Computer Congress, held every second year;
• open conferences;
• working conferences.
The flagship event is the IFIP World Computer Congress, at which both invited and contributed
papers are presented. Contributed papers are rigorously refereed and the rejection rate is high.
As with the Congress, participation in the open conferences is open to all and papers may be
invited or submitted. Again, submitted papers are stringently refereed.
The working conferences are structured differently. They are usually run by a working group
and attendance is small and by invitation only. Their purpose is to create an atmosphere
conducive to innovation and development. Refereeing is less rigorous and papers are subjected
to extensive group discussion.
Publications arising from IFIP events vary. The papers presented at the IFIP World Computer
Congress and at open conferences are published as conference proceedings, while the results of
the working conferences are often published as collections of selected and edited papers.
Any national society whose primary activity is in information may apply to become a full
member ofIFIP, although full membership is restricted to one society per country. Full members
are entitled to vote at the annual General Assembly, National societies preferring a less
committed involvement may apply for associate or corresponding membership. Associate
members enjoy the same benefits as full members, but without voting rights. Corresponding
members are not represented in IFIP bodies. Affiliated membership is open to non-national
societies, and individual and honorary membership schemes are also offered.

Preface
This volume contains the proceedings of the first international conference
on NETwork CONtrol and engineering (NETCON) for quality of service,
security and mobility. This conference focuses on policy-based networking.
The conference has been organized by the IFIP TC6 Working Group 6.7 on
smart networks.
In today's highly competitive market, service and network providers
must be able to satisfy the demands for new services, which have various
quality of service, reliability and security requirements. At the same time,
these providers need to reduce the cost of network operation and
maintenance. In this context, policy-enabled networks appear as a promising
approach.
The definition and introduction of configuration policies raise many
issues for controlling QoS, traffic engineering, security and mobility, in
particular. This book addresses these issues and investigates some new tools
to deploy efficiently policy-based networks.
