San Francisco, CA, USA
 November 10-13, 2015

We cordially invite you to participate in the 23rd edition of the IEEE
International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP 2015), covering
all aspects of network protocol research, including design, analysis,
specification, verification, implementation, and performance.

ICNP'15 will start off with a keynote lecture on "How Virtualization is
Changing Networking" by Bruce Davie, CTO, Networking at VMWARE. The
program consists of 3 days of single track sessions of 38 full paper
presentations as well as a PhD Forum.

Associated with ICNP'15 are two workshops, COntrol, Operation, and
appLication in SDN Protocols (CoolSDN) and GENI Network Innovators
Community Event (NICE). GENI NICE is a premier event for researchers
and educators to demonstrate, present research results and discuss
works in progress related to the NSF GENI testbed. Note that the
registration for GENI NICE is free.

Further details on the conference are available at
http://icnp15.cs.ucr.edu/

We are looking forward to seeing you in San Francisco, USA.

   Important dates

 Paper SubmissionMay 8, 2015, 7:59 PM EST (FIRM)
 Acceptance Notification June 30, 2015
 Camera Ready VersionAug 15, 2015

==

We invite papers with significant, original research contributions to
the field of network protocols for submission. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

* All aspects of network protocol research including design,
specification, verification, implementation, measurement, testing, and
analysis

* Domain-specific solutions, including protocols for network security,
Internet of Things, routing, user privacy, network management, and
data centers

* Application-layer protocols for peer-to-peer systems, social
networks, and emerging systems

* Contributions to network architecture, e.g., specific algorithms and
protocols for software defined networks, network virtualization, or
future Internet architectures

ICNP 2015 will select an accepted full paper for the best paper award.
Up to two of the best papers from ICNP will be fast-tracked in the
IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, with a streamlined journal review
process. Acceptance of fast-tracked papers in ToN is not guaranteed,
but is more likely than a regular submission.

Submission Guidelines

* All papers should adhere to the IEEE Computer conference paper
formatting requirements (IEEEtran.cls) and should not exceed 10 pages
with font size no smaller than 10 pt (details can be found on the
submission guidelines and formatting page).

* ICNP uses a double-blind review process. The identity of authors and
referees will not be revealed to each other. To ensure double-blind
reviewing, author names and affiliations should not appear in the
paper; bibliographic references should be made in such a way as to
preserve author anonymity; acknowledgement with identifiable names and
funding sources should be removed. Note that own work should be cited
as a third person. Papers violating this double-blind review policy
will be rejected without review.

* Authors need to indicate on their paper’s submission page all TPC
members with whom they have conflicts of interest.

* Every paper MUST be presented by an author at the conference. The
author list MUST remain the same as when the paper was submitted for
review, and any changes in the author list or title is forbidden
without prior written permission from the TPC Co-Chairs. At least one
author of an accepted paper is expected to register at the full rate
of the conference and to present the paper at the conference, in order
for the paper to appear in the conference proceedings and be submitted
to the IEEE digital library. Papers not presented by an author at the
conference will not be published in the proceedings or submitted for
inclusion in the IEEE digital library.

Integrity Policy

Submitted papers should not be previously published nor under review
by another conference or journal. In some cases, the ICNP chairs may
share information about submitted papers with other conference chairs
and journal editors to ensure the integrity of papers under
consideration. Authors are prohibited from informing any TPC member of
any identifiable information (such as titles) of their submissions.
Also, papers containing plagiarized material will be subject to the
IEEE plagiarism policy and will be rejected without review.

 Call for Workshop Proposals

IEEE ICNP 2015
  http://icnp15.cs.ucr.edu/

ICNP, the IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols, is the 
premier conference covering all aspects of network protocol research, 
including design, analysis, specification, verification, implementation, 
and performance.


ICNP 2015 will host multiple one-day or half-day workshops in 
conjunction with the main conference, to be held in San Francisco, CA on 
Nov 10-13, 2015. We invite you to submit workshop proposals on any topic 
related to the main ICNP conference. ICNP workshops should focus on 
creating interactions among participants as well as community building.


==
   Important dates

 Proposal Submission May 10, 2015
 Acceptance Notification May 15, 2015
==

A workshop proposal for ICNP 2015 should contain at least the following 
information:

* Name and possible acronym of the workshop.
* Motivation and rationale for the workshop.
* Draft call-for-papers, including introduction and topics of the workshop.
* Names and affiliations of main organizers, and a tentative composition 
of the committees (as complete as possible). Please indicate whether 
prospective committee members have been contacted and whether they have 
accepted the invitation. We strongly discourage speculative TPC listings.
* Workshop format, i.e., expected number of presented papers, slot 
lengths, information about invited talks, panels, demonstrations, etc.

* Expected number of participants and expected number of submissions.
* Requirements in terms of A/V, networking, power, facilities. (Assume 
that nothing is provided other than a projector and a microphone.)
* Prior history of this workshop, if any, including number of 
submissions, number of accepted papers, and attendee count of previous 
instances. If the workshop was co-located with another event in the 
past, please include details and a brief description why ICNP is a more 
appropriate venue.


Please note that the camera-ready processing of conference papers, 
tentatively set as Aug 15, 2015, must be met by all workshops as well. 
Also, all workshops need to start, end, and have break times at the same 
time as the main conference. The paper lengths are limited to six pages 
in IEEE Computer Society format.  All the accepted papers need to be 
presented at the workshop. They will be included in the workshop 
proceedings as well as IEEE Xplore.


Please submit your workshop proposals by email to 
icnp15ws.cha...@gmail.com by May 10, 2015. We will get back to you 
with the acceptance by May 15, 2015.
