3rd International Workshop on Intent-based Networking
*** WIN 2023 ***

In conjunction with IEEE NetSoft 2023, Madrid, Spain (19-23 June 2023)

http://adda-association.org/win-2023


Intent Based Networking (IBN) aims at technology-agnostic, fast and 
robust interaction between network infrastructure management systems and 
their users, in order to automate and speed up the deployment and 
lifecycle of applications. IBN as such covers mechanisms to recognize, 
understand and augment intents defining service or operational requests, 
so as to ensure their fulfillment, with the support of reliable system 
feedback enabling their execution within the expected quality limits.
The concept of IBN appeared in the 2010’s with a focus on automated 
policy configuration. IBN now reaches out to OTT applications deployed 
on multiple and heterogeneous networks. IBN solutions do not aim at 
covering all applications and the entire network. Instead, they are 
deemed to run in a well-defined network scope and associated knowledge 
domains. That said, IBN solutions need to have enough flexibility to 
span and exchange with connected domains.
The goal of this workshop is to gather research and experiments from 
industry, academia, and standards, to get a sense of where we stand, 
what needs to be addressed and what should be explored. To this end, the 
workshop will cover IBN aspects of all domains including applications, 
concepts, lifecycle, challenges, architectures, modeling, instantiation, 
robustness, etc.

Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not 
under review in any other conference or journal, to 
https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=30698&track=116632. To submit a 
paper, you need to have an EDAS account. Signup to create EDAS account, 
if need be.
Technical papers must be formatted using the IEEE 2-column format and 
not exceed 6 pages (without references) for full paper submissions or 
not exceed 4 pages (without references) for short / demo paper submissions.
Accepted papers will be included in IEEE NetSoft 2023 proceedings and 
indexed in IEEE Xplore library.
Only PDF files are accepted. Submissions not meeting the above 
guidelines will be rejected without other consideration. The 
camera-ready version of accepted papers will have to follow the 
guidelines for publication in IEEE Xplore.
Authors of accepted papers must present their papers at the conference. 
At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and 
present the paper.

Topics of interest include and are not limited to:
* IBN concepts, architectures, and frameworks
* IBN enabling techniques: knowledge graphs, natural languages 
understanding, policy refinement, feedback control loops, smart 
telemetry, etc.
* IBN support by machine learning and artificial intelligence
* IBN applications and use cases, including scenarios combining digital 
infrastructures and vertical industries
* IBN proof-of-concepts, experimentations; report on field trials and 
real-world deployments
* IBN and digital twins
* IBN implementations, tools, and user interface design
* IBN applications for 5G, beyond-5G and 6G networks
* IBN and cybersecurity
* Intent modeling, representation, languages, and intent translation 
techniques
* Intent and intent-related information models (policies and services)
* Intent recognition, recommendation, and abstraction techniques
* Intent assurance and assessment
* Availability, resiliency, performance, trust, and security 
considerations in IBN
* Interfaces and API for intent based systems
* Recent advances in standards and open source
