CALL FOR PAPERS



The Conference on Networked Systems (NetSys 2017) provides an
international forum for engineers and scientists in academia,
industry, and government to discuss recent innovations in the realm of
networked systems – including aspects of networking, distributed
systems, communications, middleware, and applications. NetSys
conference proceedings will be published in IEEE Xplore®.

NetSys is a biennial event that originates from the key scientific
conference on networked systems in German-speaking countries KiVS
(Kommunikation in Verteilten Systemen) – which was initiated 37 years
ago and has international orientation since 2013. NetSys is organized
by the special interest group “Communication and Distributed Systems”
(KUVS), which is anchored both in the German Computer Science society
(Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI)) and in the Information Technology
society (Informationstechnische Gesellschaft im VDE (ITG)). It is technically co-sponsored by IEEE
Communications Society and in cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM.

NetSys solicits submission of high-quality, original scientific papers
presenting novel research on the wide range of networked systems,
including but not limited to:

Network architectures and protocols
Smart grid
Transport- and application-layer protocols
Information-centric networking, content distribution and retrieval
Peer-to-peer and overlay networks
SoA, web services, and mobile services
Software-defined networking and network/functionality virtualization
Consistency, reliability, availability, and programming support
Mobile, ad-hoc, opportunistic, vehicular and sensor networks
Social networks, social computing, data-intensive computing (big data)
Middleware architectures and platforms for networked systems
Methods for design, implementation and analysis of networked systems
Internet of Things (IoT)
Cyber-physical systems
Cloud computing, mobile cloud computing
Green networks and green networked systems
Network/cyber security and privacy
Emerging networked applications

Separate workshops, tutorials, poster/demonstrations, and a doctoral
forum will complement the technical sessions.

Manuscripts will undergo a thorough process of peer reviews by at
least three members of the technical program committee. All papers
accepted in the main conference, selected workshops and the PhD forum
will be included in the conference proceedings, which will be made
available at the conference. Submission implies that at least one
author will register and attend the conference to present the
publication if the paper is accepted.
