The Asia-Pacific Network Operations and Management Symposium (APNOMS) is the
premier conference on network operations and management in the Asia-Pacific
region. APNOMS meets every year, typically during August or September, and
boasts a rich history of successes. It includes a full three-day program of
keynotes, tutorials, technical sessions, panel discussions, poster sessions,
and exhibits focusing on managing networks that span the computing and
telecommunications areas. APNOMS 2016 will encourage open discussions on
technology alternatives that focus on the management and operation of
current
and future networks and services. APNOMS welcomes submissions based on
implementation and experimentation, as well as simulation and analytical
approaches. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the

Technical Session: Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers
in English, which are not under review in any other conferences or journals.
Submission should be in form of a PDF file of a minimum of 3 pages and a
maximum
of 6 pages, prepared in accordance with IEEE author guidelines. All
presented
papers in the conference will be published in the proceedings of the
conference
and submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library and IEICE I-Scover as well
as
other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. The copyright of accepted
papers
will be transferred to IEICE. A submitted paper may be accepted as a short
paper
(presented in a poster session). NOTE: To be published in the proceedings,
for
each accepted paper, at least one author is required to register for the
conference
at the full (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be presented at
the
conference by one of the authors. Online presentation (e.g. Skype) is not
permitted without an unavoidable reason such as a natural disaster.
Innovation Session: APNOMS 2016 will include innovation sessions to present
and
discuss ongoing research, work-in-progress ideas, practical solutions, and
experimental studies. Authors are requested to submit PDF documents in a
special
format (should have a visual in the upper half of a page and the explanatory
text
in the lower half, and must not exceed 20 annotated visuals including title
and
references). The sample file can be obtained at APNOMS website:
http://www.ieice.org/~icm/apnoms/2016/Call_For_Pap....
Innovation papers will be included in conference proceedings but will NOT be
indexed by any scholarly research database. The copyright of accepted papers
will
belong to the author(s). The author(s) may transfer the copyright to a
journal
publisher if the same content or its extended version is submitted
separately to
a journal.
