The International Workshop for Software Defined Everything (SDE2020)

in conjunction with

The Seventh International Conference on Software Defined Systems (SDS-2020)

Software Defined Infrastructures consists of fully virtualised compute, networking, storage and other resources are abstracted away from the underlying physical infrastructure through software, such as Software Defined Data Centre. This allows policy-based infrastructure provisioning and enables IT automation. Software-defined infrastructure is not tied to specific hardware and can operate without or with little human involvement. This paradigm fully integrated and automated IT functions and resources. Software Defined Data Centre combines can be a result of a combination of all software defined technologies, such as SDN, SDStore, SDCompute, SDSec etc, otherwise called Software Defined Everything. Cloud computing is one major factor driving the growth of software defined everything.

The International workshop for Software Defined Everything (SDE2020) is calls for contributors to present and discuss the most recent research results, innovations, trends, and concerns in the fields the new emerging opportunity of Software Defined Everything.

The topics of the workshop include but not limited to:
Trends in SDE, theories, applications and trends
SDE Markets
Security in SDE
Software defined data centre
Software defined infrastructures
Software defined IOT/Edge
Software Defined – Centralized Vs Decentralized infrastructure
Software-Defined WAN
Softwarization methodologies for SDE
SDE on demand
SDE as a service
Business models for SDE
Adaptive Software for SDE
SDE and Vendor-lock-in
SDE Business Agility
Business case for SDE
SDE and compliance


Paper Submission

We are pleased to invite you to submit original contributions to SDE 2020 via the official submission system at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sde2020. This can include, technical and experimental, theoretical, conceptual, or a survey. All submissions will be peer-reviewed on the basis of relevance, originality, importance and clarity.

Submissions Guidelines and Proceedings
Papers must be 6 pages maximum in IEEE format, 10pt font using the IEEE 8.5" x 11" two-column format, single space, A4 format. All papers should be in PDF format, and submitted electronically at Paper Submission Link. A full paper must not exceed the stated length (including all figures, tables and references). The Papers selected for presentation will appear in the FMEC Proceedings, which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society and be submitted to IEEE Xplore for inclusion.

Submitted papers must present original unpublished research that is not currently under review for any other conference or journal. Papers not following these guidelines may be rejected without review. Also submissions received after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately structured may also not be considered. Authors may contact the Program Chair for further information or clarification.

Papers should be submitted electronically by the deadline to https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sde2020
