[802.3EEESG] Call for presentations - submissions are due Wednesday, November 7th
Folks,
The first meeting of the 802.3az task force will be held during the week
of November 11-16 at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta in Atlanta, Georgia. See
http://www.ieee802.org/meeting/index.html for meeting and registration
information. We are scheduled to meet Tuesday, Wednesday, and
Thursday. Meetings will start at 9 AM and end at approximately 5 PM
except Thursday, which will end at noon. Presentations should be
focused on proposals as we work towards developing a baseline. I
believe adopting the baseline set of proposals at the end of the March
2008 meeting is achievable if we get off to a good start at this meeting.
Here's a list of questions to be answered ( it's not comprehensive, so
if you think of something else, please add to it and contribute):
What is the maximum transition time?
What are the alternatives to frame-based communication to cause speed
changes?
How do we achieve transparency with upper layers?
How will a EEE PHY communicate with the control policy and visa versa?
How much energy will be used by a "fast start" PHY?
How much energy will be used by a "subset" PHY?
What metrics should we use to measure energy use?
Prospective presenters may submit your request per the guidelines at the
Procedure for Presenters web page:
http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/3/eee_study/public/presentproc.html
Presentation requests and materials are due to me by Wednesday, November
7th. Presentations should be mailed to me at mjbennett@ieee.org. Two
days will go by quickly. Please remember that any requests for time or
submissions of presentation material containing restrictive notices will
be rejected.
Regards,
Mike
