[DMANET] NETYS 2024 - FINAL CALL

For the 12th consecutive year, NETYS (The International Conference on
Networked Systems) aims to bring together researchers and engineers
from the theory and practice of distributed and networked systems. The
scope of the conference covers all aspects related to the design and
the development of these systems, including, but not restricted to,
cloud systems, formal verification, concurrent and distributed
algorithms, data management, data science,
parallel/concurrent/distributed programming, distributed
machine-learning, multi-core architectures, networks, and security.

NETYS will provide a forum to report on best practices, novel
algorithms, results, and techniques on networked systems. Original
research contributions and experience papers on the principles,
design, implementation, modeling, analysis, verification and
application of networked systems are solicited. Topics of interest are
broadly divided into three categories: networked systems, distributed
computing and distributed machine-learning.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

1-Networked systems:
Cloud systems and data centers
Cyber-physical systems
Distributed database, embedded and operating systems
Multi-core architectures and multithreaded applications
Distributed ledgers and blockchain technologies
Internet of Things, 5G, URLLC
Mobile, wireless, ad-hoc and sensor networks
Social networks
Overlay and peer-to-peer infrastructures

2-Distributed Computing:
Concurrency, synchronization and persistence
Distributed and concurrent data structures
Languages, verification and formal methods for distributed systems
Design and analysis of distributed algorithms
Lower bounds and impossibility results for distributed computing
Game theory, mechanisms design
Fault-tolerance, reliability, self-stabilizing, self-organizing, and
autonomic systems
Collaborative intelligent systems

3-Distributed Machine-Learning:
Collaborative/federated learning
Learning on peer-to-peer architecture
Privacy preserving distributed learning
Byzantine-robustness
Communication-efficiency
Personalized learning
Federated ensembling
Model compression

Dates:
Abstract submission deadline: February 29, 2024
Paper submission deadline: March 7, 2024
Accept/Reject notification: April 22, 2024
Camera ready copy due: May 19, 2024
Conference: May 29-31, 2024

Venue:
The conference will be organized in Rabat, the capital of Morocco.

Guidelines for submission:
Submissions must be original papers that contain sufficient detail to
assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. NETYS welcomes
papers on theory, case studies and comparisons with existing
experimental research tools, as well as combinations of new theory
with experimental evaluation.
NETYS is soliciting two forms of submission: full and short papers.
Full papers are allowed a maximum of 15 pages in Springer's LNCS
format, excluding bibliographic references, and will be allowed at
least 15 minutes for presentation at the conference, whereas short
papers are allowed a maximum of 5 pages (in the same format) and will
be allowed at least 5 minutes for presentation at the conference. A
full paper submission might be accepted as such, as a short paper or a
poster. A short paper may be accepted as such or as a poster.
Posters will be presented at the conference to reflect work in
progress and will not lead to a publication in the proceedings.
Authors are given the option to accept or not the type in which their
paper is selected for acceptance.
All submissions must be written in English, follow the LNCS template,
and adhere to the page limits. Papers exceeding these limits may be
rejected without review. A clearly marked appendix can be included for
supplementary materials but the appendix will be read at the
discretion of the reviewers; therefore, the main body of the paper
should contain sufficient details to assess its contributions.

Submission link: https://easychair.org/cfp/netys2024

Awards: Awards will be given to the best paper and the best student
paper. A paper is eligible for the best student paper award if at
least one of its authors is a full-time student at the time of
submission. This should be indicated in the submission.

Publication:It is required that each accepted paper be presented at
the conference by one of its authors.
