SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Authors are invited to submit high-quality, original contributions for
presentation at the TNT 2024 workshop.

Technical papers can be of two types:
  * Full papers, up to 6 pages, excluding references and all other material.
  * Short papers, up to 4 pages, excluding references and all other material.

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, concept-type papers, or
proof of concept papers whose description fits within a smaller number of
pages.

Papers submitted should describe original, previously unpublished research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
submissions must be written in English and must use standard IEEE two-column
conference template that can be downloaded from
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html

Only PDF files will be accepted for the review process and all manuscripts must
be electronically submitted through JEMS at:

https://jems3.sbc.org.br/noms_tnt2024

All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted and presented papers will
be published in the conference proceedings and indexed in IEEE Xplore digital
library.


IMPORTANT DATES

  * Workshop paper submission deadline: 2 February 2024 (Extended!!!)
  * Workshop paper acceptance notification: 1 March 2024
  * Camera-ready paper submission deadline: 15 March 2024
  * Workshop date: 6 or 10 May 2024
