Homepage: https://networking.ifip.org/2023/

The International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Networking 2023 Conference (IFIP NETWORKING 2023) will be held at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, in the beautiful city of Barcelona, Spain. This is the 22th event of the series, sponsored by the IFIP Technical Committee on Communication Systems (TC6). Accepted and presented papers will be published in the IFIP Digital Library as well as will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements. High quality papers will be recommended for fast-track publications in selected journals.

The main objective of Networking 2023 is to bring together members of the networking community, from both academia and industry, to discuss recent advances in the broad and quickly-evolving fields of computer and communication networks, to highlight key issues, identify trends, and develop a vision for future Internet technology, operation, and use.

The technical sessions will be structured around, but are not limited to, the following areas (in alphabetical order):
● 5G/6G networks and beyond
● Anomaly and malware detection
● Anonymization
● Applications of privacy-preserving computation in networks
● Blockchain, ledger technologies, and their network-related applications

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 double-blind peer review, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers and the identities of reviewers are withheld from the authors. Papers that do not conform to our double-blind submission policies will be rejected without review.

Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for review elsewhere will be considered. Submitted papers should be written in English by following the IEEE conference format, with a maximum length limit of 9 printed pages, including all the figures, references, and appendices. Papers longer than 9 pages will not be reviewed. Each paper can be accompanied by an appendix of at most 2 pages. However, the reviewers are not obliged to read the appendix.

All papers must be submitted in the Portable Document Format (PDF) electronically using EDAS: https://edas.info/N30169. When submitting a paper, its title, all co-authors, and a concise abstract of up to 200 words should be provided to EDAS as the metadata of the paper.
