NetSys 2023, International Conference on Networked Systems 2023
===============================================================
4-8 September 2023 – Potsdam, Germany

The Conference on Networked Systems (NetSys) provides an international forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to discuss recent innovations in networks and distributed systems. NetSys is a biennial event; in 2023, it will take place in Potsdam at the Hasso-Plattner-Institut. NetSys is organized by the special interest group “Communication and Distributed Systems” (KUVS), which is anchored both in the German Computer Science society (Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI)) and in the Information Technology society (Informationstechnische Gesellschaft im VDE (ITG)).

Calls
=====
Bringing together the community in networking and distributed systems is the main goal of NetSys 2023, fostering community building for all participants. The conference will focus on keynotes and interactive formats (e.g., poster sessions and panels), specifically geared towards younger academics (e.g., a dedicated PhD Forum). We explicitly encourage submission of early work results or presentation of additions to already published material. NetSys will be accompanied by workshops for which we are asking for proposals.

Possible topics include, but are not limited to: 

- Network architectures and protocols
- Transport- and application-layer protocols
- Software-defined networking, network function virtualization, and further network softwarization
- Mobile, ad-hoc, opportunistic, vehicular, and sensor networks
- Novel concepts for tactile and low-latency communication
- Pertinent middleware architectures, platforms, and programming support for networked systems
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- Cloud computing, mobile cloud computing, fog and edge computing
- Network security and privacy
- Information-centric networking, content distribution and retrieval, and their co-existence with classical networks
- SoA, web services, and mobile services
- Consistency, reliability, availability in networking and distributed systems
- Advancements in social networks, social computing, data-intensive computing (big data)
- Methods for design, implementation and analysis of networked systems
- Cyber-physical networked systems
- Green and energy-efficient networks / networked systems
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning as well as their application in, and impacts on, networking
- Distributed ledger systems and applications
- Emerging and future networked applications and distributed systems
