Capacity sharing workshop

Summary form only given, as follows. Message from the Capacity Sharing Workshop: Internet data traffic continues to grow rapidly. In future it will not be cost-efficient to extend network resources in the same ratio than the traffic demand. Instead applications, transport layer mechanism, traffic engineering, and network management need to seek new technologies to efficiently utilize available network resources, in particular resource allocation and flow management. The Capacity Sharing Workshop makes contributions to his problems from different angles: optimizations to queue management on network elements, congestion control algorithms/protocols on end hosts, network resource sharing leveraging virtualization and centralized control through Software-Defined Networking, as well as congestion exposure and network-to-application interfaces. We would like to thank all authors for submitting interesting papers on current and important research work on this topic. Special thanks are due to our international TPC of renowned experts who have done a great job in reviewing and evaluating the submissions in a timely and accurate manner. Finally, we are very grateful to our distinguished experts who have agreed to support the workshop by sharing their views on capacity sharing in invited talks: 1. Falk von Bornstaedt, Deutsche Telekom AG, and 2. Mat Ford, Internet Society.
