The Program Committee reserves the right to not review papers that either exceed the length specification or have been submitted or published elsewhere. Submissions must include a title, abstract, keywords, author(s) and affiliation(s) with postal and e-mail address(es). A paper abstract must be registered on EasyChair by the deadline indicated below.

Review and Publication of Manuscripts:

Submitted papers will be reviewed by the TPC and judged on originality, technical correctness, relevance, and quality of presentation. An accepted paper must be presented at the conference venue by the registered author at the full registration rate. Each full registration covers up to two papers authored by the registered author. “Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases.” Papers of special merit will be selected for possible fast track publication.

Workshops:

·         Workshop on Network Services and Applications: Big Data and e-Health (BDeHS);

·         Workshop on Context-aware QoS Provisioning and Management for Emerging Networks, Applications and Services(ContextQoS);

·         Workshop on Privacy, Security and Trust in Mobile and Wireless Systems (MobiPST);

·         Workshop on Wireless Mesh and Ad-hoc Networking (WiMAN);

·         Workshop on Manageability and Security of Software Defined Network and Network Function Virtualization (MASONS);

Please note that the page limit for the workshop program is different.
