                               Overview


Social-awareness has recently attracted a high level of attention in
network management. The CNSM Workshop on Social-aware Economic Traffic
Management for Overlay and Cloud Applications (SETM 2013) is the
continuation and evolvement of three successful Economic Traffic
Management workshops, where the last workshop was co-located with
ITC22. The workshop title has been changed to better reflect the scope
of the workshop that basing on economic perspectives in network
management extends its scope towards social awareness, cloud
computing, content awareness, and CDNs. That way the workshop is
following current trends in that area.

The main objective of SETM 2013 (supported by the EU FP7 projects
SmartenIT and eCOUSIN, as well as the DFG Cooperative Research Center
1053 MAKI) is to give scientists, researchers, and operators the
opportunity to present innovative research on SETM, to discuss new
related ideas and directions, as well as to strengthen cooperation in
this field of economics-technology interplay. The SETM 2013 workshop
is financially sponsored by Orange and Intracom Telecom.

                                 Scope


In the current Internet, important new overlay and cloud applications
significantly influence volume and patterns of Internet traffic. While
overlay applications such as Content Delivery and P2P store and
circulate information among each other with no awareness of the
topology and state of the underlying transport network infrastructure,
cloud applications delegate storage and computation to the network,
which is valuable for devices with limited resources and access.

At the same time, Online social networks (OSN) like Facebook gain more
and more popularity and attract millions of users. The widespread
adoption of OSNs has drastically changed the way content is consumed
in the Internet, as content consumption is nowadays highly impacted by
the information shared by users through OSNs and the popularity of a
given content is most often dictated by its "social" success.

In turn, the adoption of socially-aware traffic management mechanisms
as a new management approach allows for a tighter integration of
network management and overlay service functionality which can lead to
cross-layer optimization of operations and management, thus, being a
promising approach to offer a large business potential in operational
perspectives for all players involved. This approach shows benefits
for overlay and cloud applications and services which are currently
dominating Internet traffic, but still have a large potential for
optimization, e.g. in terms of QoE, energy efficiency, inter-cloud
traffic.
