Technically co-sponsored by IEEE ComSoc

*** Paper submission deadline: May 15, 2023 ***

The  14th  International Conference on  Network of the Future (NoF) is
  inviting
authors to submit original contributions  in the area of Future Internet
design,
with emphasis on enabling and cutting-edge technologies from the
perspectives of
specification,  design and  analysis related to  network of future
architecture,
applications, services, management, implementation, scalability,
standardization,
business and legal aspects, just to name a few.

The  conference  aims  at  providing  a  forum  for  researchers,
  students, and
professionals  to  exchange ideas,  share  their experiences,  and discuss
their
research results  around a single-track  of technical sessions  and a
series  of
keynote speeches.

NoF 2023 will be held in the beautiful city of Izmir, Turkey, the second
largest
city in the Aegean coast.

  been
published or  submitted  for publication  elsewhere.  Papers should  be
  prepared
using the  IEEE 2-column  conference style and  are limited to  9 pages
including
references (regular papers)  or  6 pages  including references (short
papers).  They
must be submitted electronically in PDF format through EDAS.
Seehttps://edas.info/N30540

For specific details  about submission format and procedure, please check:
https://nof.dnac.org/call-for-papers/

Papers exceeding  page limits,  multiple submissions, and self-plagiarized
papers
will be rejected without further review. All other papers will sustain a
thorough
single-blind review process.

For accepted papers to be included on NoF 2023 proceedings and to be
submitted to
IEEE Xplore, at least one author must register at the Author rate and
papers must
be presented in-person at the conference by a registered co-author.
