Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, previously unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop, or journal. There are a number of tracks that are designed to improve interactions of experts and interaction of experts over different stages in research development.

· *Full Regular papers *(maximum 8 pages, 10 pt font in IEEE format) should present novel perspectives within the general scope of the conference.

· *Short papers *(up to 4 pages) are an opportunity to present preliminary or interim results on hot topics in a poster session.

· The *Doctoral track *provides a supportive setting for Ph.D. students to discuss their problem statement, goals, methods and results (up to 6 pages), obtain feedback from established researchers and establish contacts for entering the job market. The doctoral track involves a mentoring program.

This year we are holding dedicated workshops focusing on nascent and promising areas in networking research, which shall involve experts in those areas seeking to foster collaborative development. A separate call for workshop proposals will be disseminated by the Workshop Chairs, Nils Aschenbruck (aschenbruck@uos.de) and Mervat Abu-Elkheir ( mervat.abuelkheir@guc.edu.eg).

Full, short, workshop, and doctoral papers are published in the IEEE LCN proceedings and IEEE Xplore. All papers must include title, complete contact information for all authors, abstract, and keywords on the cover page. IEEE reserves the right to remove papers from IEEE Xplore that are not presented at the conference.

*** Paper submission: ***

Papers must be registered on EDAS and submitted in PDF format. Detailed submission instructions are available at the conference website. Direct your questions to Program Chairs: Eyuphan Bulut (ebulut@vcu.edu) and Florian Tschorsch (florian.tschorsch@tu-berlin.de).

A limited number of students grants and N2 Women Young Researcher Fellowship awards are considered by the conference each year.
