NetSys'17

The International Conference on Networked Systems

Call for papers

International Conference on Networked Systems 2017

March 13-16, 2017 – Göttingen, Germany

CALL FOR PAPERS [PDF]

The Conference on Networked Systems (NetSys 2017) provides an international forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to discuss recent innovations in the realm of networked systems – including aspects of networking, distributed systems, communications, middleware, and applications.

NetSys is a biennial event that originates from the key scientific conference on networked systems in German-speaking countries KiVS (Kommunikation in Verteilten Systemen) – which was initiated 37 years ago and has international orientation since 2013. NetSys is organized by the special interest group “Communication and Distributed Systems” (KUVS), which is anchored both in the German Computer Science society (Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI)) and in the Information Technology society (Informationstechnische Gesellschaft im VDE (ITG)). It is technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc) and in cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM.

NetSys solicits submission of high-quality, original scientific papers presenting novel research on the wide range of networked systems, including but not limited to:

Network architectures and protocols Smart grid
Transport- and application-layer protocols Information-centric networking, content distribution and retrieval
Peer-to-peer and overlay networks SoA, web services, and mobile services
Software-defined networking and
network/functionality virtualization
Consistency, reliability, availability, and programming support
Mobile, ad-hoc, opportunistic, vehicular and sensor networks Social networks, social computing, data-intensive computing (big data)
Middleware architectures and platforms for networked systems Methods for design, implementation and analysis of networked systems
Internet of Things (IoT) Cyber-physical systems
Cloud computing, mobile cloud computing Green networks and green networked systems
Network/cyber security and privacy Emerging networked applications

Separate workshops, tutorials, poster/demonstrations, and a doctoral forum will complement the technical sessions. Manuscripts will undergo a thorough process of peer reviews by at least three members of the technical program committee. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. Submission implies that at least one author will register and attend the conference to present the publication if the paper is accepted.
