Dear All, We invite you to submit your work in our symposium titled "Next-Generation Networking and Internet" IEEE ComSoc Flagship Conference

*IEEE International Conference on Communications* *8–12 June 2025 // Montreal, Canada*

=============================================================================================================================== *Scope and Motivation* Recent years are witnessing unprecedented advances in next generation Internet-networking research that has to deal with many innovations triggered by high-performance computing, programmable network equipment, and computing harvesting next generation services. Thanks to the continuous enhancements in computing processor and interface architectures, communication networks can now handle network functions implemented as virtualized machines or docker containers making use of robust software elements. Many salient issues are affecting next-generation networks, such as, network densification, network slicing, mobile cloud computing, mobility management, cross-layer activities, self-organization, security, performance predictability, and energy efficiency operations. Networks, applications, and clouds control layers can leverage intelligent decision-making solutions to target full automation in the Internet and next-generation service delivery. In addition, quantum networking, with its vast amounts of computing power, is emerging and that opens new and many possibilities. These trends greatly affect the next-generation broadband wireless networks, such as their spectrum efficiency, energy efficiency, and mobility management. The Next Generation Networking and Internet (NGNI) Symposium at IEEE ICC 2025 aims at consolidating and disseminating the latest developments and advances in these emerging focus areas. This symposium invites participation from academic, industry, and government researchers working in the broad area of next-generation networking and Internet, including architectures, communication protocols, modelling, measurements, and applications. The NGNI Symposium will provide a forum for academic, industry, and government researchers to get together and present a latest snapshot of their cutting-edge research, and foster technical debate on future directions in this exciting area. ================================================================================================================================== *Topics of Interest* Original research articles are solicited in, but not limited to, the following topics:
