Dear QIRG members, Thanks for the great support to IEEE Network Special Issue (2022) and Series 1 on Quantum Communications and Networking (QCN)! Now IEEE Network special issue has been published in 2022 (September 2022 Issue), and the papers series 1 have become early accessible from IEEE Xplore (November/December 2023 Issue). The submission deadline for IEEE Network Series 2 on QCN has been extended to *Dec. 15* and welcome to continue to contribute to this series. The topics in this series is very closely related to the QIRG. It will be also appreciated if you can disseminate this CFP to your friends, colleagues, various mailing lists, conferences/workshops, and social media. https://www.comsoc.org/publications/magazines/ieee-network/cfp/quantum-communications-and-networking-series-2 <https://www.comsoc.org/publications/magazines/ieee-network/cfp/quantum-communications-and-networking-series-2> *Series 2 Manuscript Submission Deadline: 15 December 2023 (Extended) * Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: •Quantum communication and networking applications •Quantum internet architectures, protocols, and design principles •Intelligent quantum communication networks •Entanglement generation, scheduling, and distribution •Quantum information theory and communication protocol •Quantum memory and repeater design •Quantum routing metrics and new routing algorithms •Congestion control and resource allocation for quantum networks •Quantum data plane and quantum control plane design •Security, privacy, and trust in the context of quantum networks •Quantum network management •Simulators, testbeds, prototypes, implementations, and field experiments •Verification of the existing knowledge in real quantum networks •Performance evaluation and modeling •Migration from classical networks to quantum networks If you have any question on submission, please feel free to contact us. Thanks a lot!

It is a breakthrough technology towards the unimaginable future. In a quantum network, the source and destination may be connected by quantum repeaters/routers for facilitating qubit transmissions. The quantum network of the future is envisaged to pervade the entire globe, relying on terrestrial components, satellites, airplanes, ships and other vehicles. It is anticipated that it will support nearly unconditional security, super-computing power, large network capacity – even at high velocity - and privacy. In the current era, quantum networks are similar to the early stage of the classical Internet in the 1970s. However, they exhibit fundamentally different features, obeying the uncertainty principle, the non-orthogonal indistinguishable theorem, the quantum non-cloning theorem, entanglement and superposition. These constraining features make the design of quantum networks a challenging task. To make the promise of quantum networking a reality, the entire protocol stack spanning from the physical-layer enabling techniques to the application layer requires a dedicated collaborative effort from a large fraction of the engineering and physics community. This series focuses on recent advances in quantum communications and networking, and we seek original contributions in quantum networking architectures, concepts, protocols, and technologies in support of long-distance qubit transmissions and novel network applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: •Quantum communication and networking applications •Quantum internet architectures, protocols, and design principles •Intelligent quantum communication networks •Entanglement generation, scheduling, and distribution •Quantum information theory and communication protocol •Quantum memory and repeater design •Quantum routing metrics and new routing algorithms •Congestion control and resource allocation for quantum networks •Quantum data plane and quantum control plane design •Security, privacy, and trust in the context of quantum networks •Quantum network management •Simulators, testbeds, prototypes, implementations, and field experiments •Verification of the existing knowledge in real quantum networks •Performance evaluation and modeling •Migration from classical networks to quantum networks Submission Guidelines: Manuscripts should conform to the standard format as indicated in the ‘Information for Authors’ section of the Paper Submission Guidelines.
