ICIN 2025 solicits original, unpublished work not currently under review by other conferences or journals.

Digital transformation is at the heart of our society. This evolution is made possible by the deployment of a network, computing and service infrastructure that is highly sophisticated in terms of its size, the diversity of its components and the range of uses it allows. Such an infrastructure is made of a large set of heterogeneous hardware/software components resulting in a system of systems whose availability, reliability, performance, interoperability and energy efficiency are becoming major challenges. In order to overtake them, there is a need to automate the full cycle of the continuum.

A special focus will be set on the conference theme “*Towards full life cycle automation in the IoT-edge-cloud continuum**”. *

Areas of interest and topics include, but are not limited to:

*– Intelligent network service management*

* Intelligent end-to-end service configuration * Intelligent and cooperative management models across heterogeneous network segments from IoT to Cloud and back * Intelligent, resilient and robust schemes**in the IoT-edge-cloud continuum service management * Enablers for cross-network intelligence and services trustworthiness * Intelligent and flexible networks and services for high adaptability * Support of intelligent network service management by digital twins * Distributed intelligence in B5G/6G networks

*– IoT-edge-cloud continuum and intelligent softwarized networks evolution and life cycle*

* Intelligent edge for vertical industries * Digital twins challenges for the IoT-edge-cloud continuum life cycle automation * Vehicular cloud services * Industrial networks and services for an intelligent automation * Functional decomposition and orchestration, service chaining * Communication protocols for ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability * Fog, edge and multi-access computing and networking * Security, trust and privacy

*– Enablers and services for intelligent wireless and mobile networks*

* Network and service architecture, protocols, application-network layer interworking * Scalability and multi-tenancy in beyond wireless, cellular and emerging networks * Green networking and efficient resource usage and service delivery * Security, trust and privacy management in large systems and smart environments

*– Network automation and orchestration architectures and protocols*

* Zero-touch network and service management and orchestration * Artificial intelligence for networks and networks for artificial intelligence * Orchestration of mobile and ephemeral resources, automated infrastructure discovery * Network data analytics, anomaly detection and feature extraction * Autonomic and cognitive networking * Automated data, control, and management planes * Intent-based network management * Self-driving networks * Network programmability * Automated QoS/QoE management * Orchestration of distributed cloud, edge and network resources * Security, societal, and legal aspects of network automation * Federated learning-based applications

*– Technologies for innovation in clouds, edge, networks and IoT*

* SDN, NFV, service function chaining, function placement and network embedding * Serverless computing and FaaS * Application-aware networking * Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies in networking and network services * Advanced multimedia and real-time communications * QoE/QoS Assurance * Lightweight virtualization technologies, software and hardware acceleration * Energy-efficient software-defined infrastructures * Measurement, monitoring and telemetry * Time-sensitive and deterministic networking * Open-source projects and open standards
