[DMANET] Fwd: IEEE LCN 2020 , The 45th IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks (LCN)

=======================================================================

Call for Papers

The 45th Annual IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks (LCN 2020) &

LCN Symposium on Emerging Topics in Networking

=======================================================================

Sydney, Australia

November 16-19, 2020

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

*Announcement*: After evaluating the current COVID-19 situation, the
decision has been made to transform the in-person component of The 45th
IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks (LCN) into an *all-digital
conference* experience – IEEE LCN 2020 will now be an online event.
Therefore, *IEEE LCN 2020 will no longer take place in Sydney, Australia,
but will instead take place virtually*. The conference dates remain the
same [November 16-19, 2020]. Publications will continue as planned and
there will be proceedings. Presentations of accepted papers of the main
conference, symposium, poster session and doctoral track will be organized
so that authors can present their papers at a *convenient time* from their
respective locations.

*Scope*: The IEEE LCN conference is the premier conference on the leading
edge of theoretical and practical aspects of computer networking. LCN is a
highly interactive conference that enables an effective interchange of
results and ideas among researchers, users, and product developers. For the
past 44 years, major developments from high-speed networks to the global
Internet to specialized sensor networks have been reported at this
conference.

*Authors' info*: Authors are invited to submit papers describing original,
previously unpublished work, not currently under review by another
conference, workshop, or a journal. Full papers (between 8 to 12 pages, 10
pt font in IEEE format) should present novel perspectives within the
general scope of the conference. A Doctoral Track provides a supportive
setting for Ph.D. students to discuss their problem statement, goals,
methods and results, obtain feedback from established researchers and
establish contacts for entering the job market. The LCN Symposium provides
an opportunity to present early work-in-progress that shows exciting
promise in Emerging Topics in Networking. Finally, short papers (up to 4
pages) are an opportunity to present preliminary or interim results on hot
topics in a poster session. Papers must be registered on EDAS and submitted
in PDF format. Detailed submission instructions are available at the
conference website.

*LCN Important Dates*

Paper registration: May 22, 2020

Paper submission : June 5, 2020

Notification : September 4, 2020

Final paper : October 16, 2020
