Topics of Interest

We solicit contributions that report early results addressing research challenges in topics related to the network of the future. Particularly, we want to identify and address issues with a very high potential for significant impacts on the way the network is functioning and being used. The workshop welcomes submissions from both researchers and practitioners but fresh ideas in the form of early results, position papers and systems papers are particularly welcome.

Areas of interest include but are not limited to:

  - Alternatives to established technologies such as routing

  - Re-design and re-evaluation of today’s architectural principles

  - End-to-end virtualization of the network

  - Technology to introduce vital but missing functionality

  - Self-management of network services

  - New media-aware transport services

  - New approaches to network security

  - Mechanisms to interconnect extremely heterogeneous edge networks

  - Technology based on new communication paradigms

  - Wide-scale Internets of Things

  - Machine-to-machine networking

  - Socio-economic for the future Internet

  - Business models for the Internet of Things

  - Business drivers for radical changes in the network

  - Regulatory frameworks for a new networking layer
