*Call for Posters and PH.D. Forum Abstracts*



2nd IEEE CONFERENCE ON NETWORK SOFTWARIZATION – NetSoft 2016

Softwarization of Networks, Clouds, and Internet of Things

SEOUL, KOREA, June 6-10, 2016



*CALL FOR POSTERS and PH.D. FORUM ABSTRACTS*

The IEEE conference on Network Softwarization, NetSoft 2016, invites both
poster and Ph.D. forum abstracts on works-in-progress research in the field
of networking software, Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network
Function Virtualization (NFV). For a list of topics, please refer to the
NetSoft’2016 Call for Papers. We particularly encourage student and
industry submissions. The poster and Ph.D. forum session at NetSoft 2016
offers a great opportunity for researchers and students to present their
work in progress to the scientific community and obtain valuable feedback
from a knowledgeable crowd at the top-notch conference.



The poster and Ph.D. forum session will be structured as a poster
presentation, followed by collective discussions. An accepted abstract must
be presented by an author in the poster session (specific venue and time
will be announced in *POSTER and FORUM PRESENTATION GUIDELINES *for the
accepted abstracts) to interested attendees. Particularly, for the
students, leading researchers will provide their own perspectives on
current and future research in the field, as well as on how to best purse a
graduate research in this context. The accepted abstracts will appear in
the poster and forum handouts (will NOT be included in the electronic
conference/workshops proceedings). Each accepted poster requires an author
to register for the conference.

A Best Poster and Forum Award will be given based on the novelty and
potentials in research. The quality of presentation and the interaction
during the session will also be important criteria. The award will be
announced in the closing session of the main conference.



*PAPER SUBMISSION*

A submission should be a 1-page abstract, which summarizes the novelty of
proposed ideas, presents initial and work-in-progress results, and
identifies challenges and future works to develop a complete solution.
Abstracts will be evaluated by the Posters and Ph.D. Forum Session
committee based on their originality and the potential to stimulate
discussions and promote future collaborations.
