MedComNet 2023 continues the tradition of the MedHocNet conference series that started in Sardinia in 2002 and was held annually in beautiful locations on the shores of the Mediterranean. This year's edition will take place from the 13th to the 15th of June on the island of Ponza, Italy.

MedComNet is a forum for the presentation of new research results in the broad area of wired and wireless communication and computer networking.
All aspects of the networking research area are welcome.

MedComNet will request the technical co-sponsorhip of IEEE. Extended versions of the best papers presented at the conference will be considered, by invitation and upon additional review, for publication in the Elsevier Computer Networks journal.
