SUMMARY:IEEE International Conference on Network Softwarization 2023 - Call for Papers
DESCRIPTION:Call for Papers – IEEE NetSoft 2023 \nThe 9th IEEE International Conference on Network Softwarization “Boosting Future Networks through Advanced Softwarization” – June 19 – 23\, 2023\, Madrid\, Spain \nImportant Dates \n\nPaper submission deadline: January 30\, 2023 (extended!)\nAcceptance notification: March 24\, 2023\nCamera-ready paper: April 28\, 2023\n\nAims and Scope \nIEEE NetSoft\, the premier International Conference on Network Softwarization\, addresses the advanced research challenges and opportunities raised by the overall transformation trend of network “softwarization”\, which has been revolutionizing the networking field and has accelerated its convergence with adjacent industries. \nNetwork Softwarization refers to the transition of traditional network infrastructure and functionalities\, provided via hardware appliances developed by equipment and service vendors\, to new ones that have been propelled over the last 15 years by the maturity of widespread technologies such as network function virtualization\, software-defined networking\, and service function chaining. \nIn particular\, the ability to program\, manage and operate network and service infrastructures more freely makes it possible to reinvent network and cloud architectures\, customize services\, accelerate service deployment\, and facilitate greater operational efficiencies with guarantees. The need for further advances in these topics is reflected in the overall theme of NetSoft 2023: Boosting Future Networks through Advanced Softwarization. \nNetSoft 2023 will feature technical paper presentations\, keynotes\, tutorials\, workshops\, demos\, and exhibitions from world-leading experts representing service providers\, vendors\, research institutes\, open source projects\, and academia. This year\, a PhD symposium will also be initiated. \nTopics of NetSoft 2023 \nThe conference is soliciting paper submissions with significant research contributions to the field of network softwarization. The topics of interest include\, but are not limited to: \n\nSoftwarized cloud\, fog\, and edge infrastructures\nNetwork softwarization for 5G/6G\nSoftwarization in Metaverse (AR/VR and digital twins)\nCooperative multi-domain\, multi-tenant SDN/NFV environments.\nFuture Internet and New IP architectures.\nMobility management in softwarized networks.\nHigh-precision communications and computing\nService Function Chaining (SFC).\nNetwork slicing and slice management\nQoS and QoE in softwarized infrastructures.\nNetwork softwarization for deterministic Internet re-engineering\nSoftwarization for Cognitive and autonomic networking\nPolicy-based and Intent-based networking.\nAI/ML techniques and network softwarization\nDynamic resource discovery and negotiation schemes.\nAssurance and Measurements in softwarized networks\nResilience\, reliability\, and robustness of softwarized networks\nSecurity\, Safety\, Trust\, and Privacy in virtualized environments.\nEnergy Efficiency in network softwarization\nAbstractions and virtualization of resources\, services\, and functions.\nProgrammability for Time-Sensitive Networks (TSN)\nProgrammable Networking Protocols\nProgrammable SDN and NFV: languages and architectures (P4 and others)\nOpen source and network softwarization.\nHardware acceleration for programmable network functions.\nDevelopment methodologies for network softwarization (DevOps\, NetOps\, Verification).\nDeployment and transition strategies.\nExperience reports from experimental testbeds and deployments.\nNew value chains and service models enabled by softwarization.\nSocio-economic impact and regulations for softwarization.\n\nSubmission Guidelines \nProspective authors are invited to submit high-quality original technical papers for presentation at the conference and publication in the NetSoft 2023 Proceedings. All submissions must be written in English and must use standard IEEE two-column conference template that can be downloaded from \nhttps://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html \nTechnical Papers can be of two types: Full or Short papers\, up to 9 and 5 pages respectively\, including references and all other material. If accepted\, a paper will be published in the category (long/short) of its submission. Long papers are the more traditional form to present technical work. Long papers should emphasize not only novelty and vision\, but execution and thoroughness of the contribution (design\, evaluation). Short papers are the preferred vehicle for visionary papers or traditional technical papers whose description fits within a smaller number of pages. Short papers may not yet be ‘fully baked’ in terms of execution and evaluation. In both Full and Short papers\, author names and affiliations should be included after the title\, as provided in the templates. \nPapers submitted should describe original\, previously unpublished research results\, not currently under review by another conference or journal. Papers not meeting the length and formatting requirements or violating IEEE’s guidelines on plagiarized content will be rejected without review. All other submitted papers will be reviewed. Selected papers for NetSoft 2023 may be conditionally accepted and subjected to shepherding before final acceptance. \nOnly PDF files will be accepted for the review process and all manuscripts must be electronically submitted through EDAS: https://edas.info/N30268 \nImportant: NetSoft 2023 is enforcing a strict publication and no-show policy as stated by IEEE. By submitting a contribution\, you agree with the terms of the publication and no-show policy as mentioned in https://netsoft2023.ieee-netsoft.org/authors/publication-and-no-show-policy \nTPC Co-Chairs \n\nElisa Rojas\, Universidad de Alcalá (UAH)\, Spain\nFábio Luciano Verdi\, Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar)\, Brazil\nZuqing Zhu\, University of Science and Technology of China\, China\n\nGeneral Co-Chairs \n\nBarbara Martini – Universitas Mercatorum\, Italy\nCarlos Jesus Bernardos – University Carlos III of Madrid\, Spain
