*******************************************
The International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Networking
2020 Conference (NETWORKING 2020) will be held in Paris, France, on June
22-26. This is the 19th event of the series, sponsored by the IFIP
Technical Committee on Communication Systems (TC6). Accepted papers will be
published in the IFIP Digital Library and submitted to the IEEE Xplore
Digital Library. High quality papers will be recommended for fast track
publications in selected journals.
The main objective of Networking 2020 is to bring together academic and
industrial experts of the networking community to discuss the most recent
advances in networking, to highlight key issues, identify trends, and
develop a vision of the future Internet from a design, deployment and
operation standpoints. Networking 2020 technical sessions will be
structured around the following yet non-limitative areas:

*Network Architectures, Applications and Services*
Network automation techniques, including (but not limited to) policy-based
network management, software-defined networking (SDN), dynamic policy
enforcement and resource allocation schemes, dynamic service parameter
negotiation frameworks, and feedback mechanisms
Artificial intelligence applied to networking: dynamic resource negotiation
and provisioning, dynamic service structuring (orchestration) and delivery
Service function chaining
Data center networking; fog, edge and cloud computing design and operation
(Multi-tenant) networking slicing, from slice parameter negotiation to
provisioning and operation
Drone networking and related unmanned technology-based services and
applications
Protective and collaborative networking: dynamic threat anticipation and
mitigation, dynamic attack mitigation practices, inter-DDoS Service
Provider (DPS) collaboration, collaborative autonomous and SDN networking
Transactional networking: attack-proof and resiliency techniques applied to
financial networking, inter-domain banking services
Internet of Things (IoT): cross-platform IoT service design, delivery and
operation
Privacy-based networking: multi-metric routing schemes, resiliency designs
Quantum communications: automated key allocation schemes, quantum key
exchange in various networking environments (satellite, optical)
Tbit/s optical and wireless networking
Overlay and P2P networks
Evolution of IP network architectures and protocols
Green networking
Resilient networks
Traffic engineering
Quality of Service
Emerging value-added services and applications

*Network Modeling, Analysis and Operation*
Topology characterization

Anomaly and malware detection
Denial-of-service detection and mitigation
Network forensics
Authentication
Applications of privacy-preserving computation in networks
Anonymization
Dependability
Situational awareness
Threat intelligence
Blockchain, ledger technologies and their applications

*Wireless Networking *
5G access networks
Long-range communication
Ad-hoc and mesh networks
Mobile networks, self-organizing networks
Wireless sensor networks
Visible light communication
Localization
Delay/disruption tolerant networks
Opportunistic networks
Wireless power transfer networks
Device-to-device communication
Vehicular networks

*Submission Guidelines *
The technical program committee welcomes paper submissions on all topics
related to computer and communication networks. All submitted papers will
be judged based on their quality and relevance through single-blind peer
review. Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for
review elsewhere will be considered.

Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for review
elsewhere will be considered.
Submitted papers should be written in English.

Papers can be of two types:

    1    Full papers or Short papers, up to 9 pages and 5 pages
respectively, including tables, figures and references.
    2    Demo and poster papers of length of 3 pages are also solicited.

All papers must be submitted in the Portable Document Format (PDF)
electronically using EDAS. When submitting the paper, the title, all
co-authors, and a concise abstract of up to 200 words should be provided to
EDAS: http://edas.info/N25747 as the metadata of the paper. The metadata
should be provided before the abstract registration deadline.

An author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference
at the full (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be presented by
an author of that paper at the conference unless the TPC co-chairs grant
permission for a substitute presenter before the conference. Non-refundable
registration fees must be paid prior to uploading the final correctly
formatted, publication-ready version of the paper. Accepted and presented
papers will be published in the IFIP Digital Library and IEEE Xplore
Digital Library.
To ensure appropriate consideration of conflicts of interest during the
review process, changes to the list of authors are prohibited once a paper
has been submitted for review. Should a paper be accepted, the complete
list of authors, including the ordering of authors, must remain identical
as the EDAS metadata in the final camera-ready manuscript.
