     *** Tutorial proposal submission deadline: July 10, 2023 ***

The  14th International  Conference  on Network  of  the Future (NoF)
provides  a  forum  for  researchers, students  and professionals to
exchange ideas,  share their  experiences, and discuss  their research
results in  the area of  Future Internet  design, with an emphasis on
enabling and cutting-edge technologies.

Tutorials are an integral part of the program of NoF 2023. They should
provide  participants  an overview  and  introduction  to new network
technologies   from  the   perspectives   of  specification, design,
implementation,  application,  and   management  of  future networks.
Tutorials should  focus on hands-on experiences.   Experts are invited
to submit  quarter-day (1.5  hours) or  half-day (3.5  hours) tutorial
proposals.

NoF 2023 will be held in Izmir, Turkey.

*** Submission guidelines ***
*****************************

A NoF 2023 tutorial proposal should  be submitted in a single PDF file
(4 pages max.), and must include the following:

* Tutorial title
* Tutorial duration: either 1.5 hours or 3.5 hours (with a break)
* Abstract briefly describing the concept  and content of the tutorial
   (no more than 300 words)
* Names,   affiliations  and   short  biographies   of  the speakers
       highlighting  their experience  on the  proposed topic  (no more
       than 300 words per speaker).
* Intended audience and a brief description of the background required
       by the tutorial attendees.
* Tutorial content: a detailed description of the tutorial content. It
       should highlight  the relevance and timeliness  of the addressed
       topic, the  goal of the tutorial  and an outline of  its content
       providing the expected duration for each part.
* Hand-out  material: a  description of  the non-interactive material
       that will be provided to the tutorial’s attendees (e.g., slides,
       code snippets, tools, virtual machines).
* Hands-on material:  a description of  the interactions that will be
       asked  attendees to  perform, as  well as  readme file  with all
       necessary steps  required by  attendees to follow  along. Please
       remember that  tutorials should  be heavily focused  on hands-on
       experiences.
* Hands-on material:  a description of  the interactions that will be
       asked  attendees to  perform, as  well as  readme file  with all
       necessary steps  required by  attendees to follow  along. Please
       remember that  tutorials should  be heavily focused  on hands-on
       experiences.
* Infrastructure  requirements: a  description  of the infrastructure
   requirements which  need to  be made available  to properly  run the
   tutorial. This  may target hardware  (e.g. IoT devices)  or software
   (virtualisation/cloud/NFV) frameworks. The provenance of these means
   should  be  provided  especially   if  particular  requirements are
   expected from the local organizers.

Tutorial proposals  without interactive  material are  also acceptable
but they are discouraged.

Please    submit   proposals    by   email    (to   both addresses:
[e-mail],
[e-mail])  You  will receive  an acknowledge
mail to formalize the successful submission of the tutorial proposal.

Upon acceptance, the final materials  for the tutorials (e.g., slides,
documents, virtual  machine images) will  have to be submitted  to the
tutorial co-chairs by email.

If  you have  any questions,  please contact  the tutorial co-chairs:
[e-mail], [e-mail].
