ITC28 Conference
September 12-16, 2016, Würzburg, Germany
“Digital Connected World”
https://itc-conference.org/itc28
ITC 28 is technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society (IEEE ComSoc) and the Information Technology Society within VDE (ITG VDE), and in-cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM.
The
evolution of communications and networking is changing the world we are living
in. The digital connected world is triggered by the influence of computer
science on telecommunication, the advent of the Internet and the massive
deployment of mobile communications and optics, the appearance of collaborative
networking and social networks, the ever-increasing speed and flexibility of
new communication technologies, networks, user devices, and applications, and
the ever-changing operational challenges arising from this development.
ITC is the
first international conference in networking science & practice. It gathers
a wide and lively community of researchers and practitioners dedicated to
pushing forward the boundary of knowledge in the area of networking. As such,
ITC has provided a forum for leading researchers from academia and industry to
present and discuss the latest changes and developments in design, modelling,
measurement, and performance evaluation of communication systems, networks, and
services.
ITC 28
continues this tradition and solicits original contributions that address novel
technologies or propose innovative models and techniques. ITC 28 is structured
into eight different areas. The objectives in these areas include, among
others, energy-efficiency and green IT, network security and privacy, QoS and
QoE, and resilience. More details on the areas and the list of topics can be
found online at https://itc-conference.org/itc28
