Papers published on IEEE Xplore. Indexed by Ei COMPENDEX ============================================================== The 27th International Telecommunication Networks and Application Conference (ITNAC 2017) November 22-24, 2017 in Melbourne, Australia http://www.itnac.org.au ============================================================== Paper Submission opens in January 2017 Full paper submission deadline: June 15, 2017 *SCOPE* With the increasing number of emerging robust networks, the challenges to design new networking protocols, techniques, and applications are never ending. With the imminent deployment of 4G and 5G on the horizon, the demand for better service and quality has never been greater. ITNAC is a leading forum for researchers and engineers to present and discuss topics related to advanced telecommunication network technologies, services and applications. ITNAC 2017 seeks to address and capture highly innovative and state-of-the-art research from academia, communications industry and standardisation bodies that covers applications for and analysis of distributed, mobile, cognitive and cloud computing, computer and data communications, local and metropolitan networks, optical, wired and wireless telecommunication networks and applications. Contributions are welcome on all advanced research and particularly (but not limited to) the following topics: Mobile & Wireless Networks - Modelling and Simulation - Wireless access and routing protocols - Cross-layer design optimisation - Green, low power, energy efficient and sustainable networking - Nature and bio-inspired approaches to networking - Network-based mobile positioning and tracking systems - Cognitive and cooperative principles for networking - Mobile social and ambient networks - Delay tolerant networks - Mobile and fixed wireless broadband access networks - 4G/5G networks - Wireless sensor networks - Vehicular Ad-hoc networks - Cognitive networks - Wireless mesh networks Internet Technologies and Applications - Network Modelling and Simulation - Software defined networking - Smart Cities and Smart Grids - Content-centric networks - Traffic engineering, congestion and admission control - Datacenter networks and Cloud Computing - Peer-to-peer networks and overlays - Novel network-enabled applications and services - Future Internet routing schemes or transport concepts - IPv6 and its derivatives - High performance network virtualisation - Networking standards and regulations - QoS/QoE provisioning and resource management - Novel network-enabled applications and services Network Management, Privacy and Security - Next generation network regulation - Broadband network management - Intrusion detection and prevention - Key distribution and management - Large-scale attacks and defense - Security and privacy in wireless networks - Network security policy, theory and tools - Secure Mobile Agents and Mobile Code - Trusted computing and management - World Wide Web security - Network resiliency and network security - Cyber security Optical Networking and Applications - Modelling and Simulation - Optical switching and routing - Optical Network on Chips - Visible light communication - Optical Ethernet, EPON/GPON, 100Gb/s Ethernet - WDM Access Networks, WDM-PON - Wired/wireless convergence, Telecom/broadcast convergence, IPTV - Hybrid optical-wireless access networks, Radio-over-fiber - Large capacity optical transmission, WDM, OTDM - OFDM and advanced modulation formats in photonics - Energy efficient optical networks *SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS* Submitted manuscripts should be written in English conforming to IEEE conference proceedings format (template available at http://www.ieee.org/ conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html). We invite the following two types of submissions: - Full Papers (6 pages complementary, and up to 8 pages with over length charge) - Short Papers (3 pages complementary and up to 4 pages with over length charge). All paper submissions must represent original and unpublished work. Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format through EDAS *PUBLICATIONS* Accepted papers from this conference will be published in the proceedings (indexed by EI Compendex). Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be considered for possible publication in SCI & EI indexed special issues of prestigious international journals. By submitting a paper to the conference, authors assure that if the paper is accepted, at least one author will attend the conference and present the paper.Ê *IMPORTANT DATES* Paper submission: 15 June, 2017 Notification of acceptance: 30 August, 2017 Camera-ready due: 20 September, 2017 Registration due: 1 November, 2017 Conference: 22-24 November, 2017 *CONFERENCE COMMITTEES* General Chair Mark Gregory, RMIT University, AU Program Chairs Khandakar Ahmed, Melbourne Institute of Technology, AU Shui Yu, Deakin University, AU Publicity Chair William Liu, Auckland University of Technology, NZ Local Organising Committee Chair Mark Gregory, RMIT University, AU Steering Committee Ron Addie, University of Southern Queensland, AU Adnan Al-Anbuky, Auckland University of Technology, NZ Franco Davoli, University of Genova, Italy Mark Gregory, RMIT University, Melbourne, AU Krys Pawlikowski, University of Canterbury, NZ Richard Harris, Massey University, NZ Phuoc Tran-Gia, University of Wuerzburg, Germany -------------------------------------------------------------- Dr William Liu Department of Information Technology and Software Engineering School of Engineering, Computer and Mathematical Sciences Auckland University of Technology Auckland, New Zealand Address for correspondence: Level 1, AUT Tower, 2-14 Wakefield St, Auckland 1010, NZ.
