First Call for Papers

The 1st International Conference on Networking Systems and Security 2015
(NSysS 2015) aims at providing a forum of researchers, practitioners,
developers, and users to exchange new ideas and results related to computer
networks, networking systems, and security across academia and industry. NSysS
2015 will be held during January 5-7, 2015 in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh.

We solicit original technical papers articulating novel ideas, protocols, and
algorithms with ground-breaking results and/or quantified experiences
involving networking systems and security. The conference values papers, which
will take a broad networking and/or security perspective(s) covering
contemporary and future applications. Of particular interest are technical
contributions that enable new and compelling networking and security paradigms.

Important dates:
Paper submission deadline: August 17, 2014 (Extended)
Notification of paper acceptance: September 30, 2014
Poster and demo submission deadline: October 7, 2014
Notification of poster and demo acceptance: October 14, 2014
Program: January 5-7, 2015
