NETWORKING 2018 - IFIP Networking 2018 Conference (NETWORKING 2018)

The IFIP Networking 2018 Conference (NETWORKING 2018), to be held
in Zurich, Switzerland, is the 17th event of the series, sponsored
by the IFIP Technical Committee on Communication Systems (TC6).
Accepted papers will be published in the IFIP Digital Library and
submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
The main objective of Networking 2018 is to bring together members
of the networking community, from both academia and industry, to
discuss recent advances in the broad and quickly-evolving fields
of computer and communication networks, to highlight key issues,
identify trends, and develop a vision for future Internet
technology, operation, and use.
The technical sessions will be structured around, but are not
limited to, the following areas:

and protocols, overlay and P2P networks, evolution of IP network
architectures and protocols, green networking, resilient networks,
network management, traffic engineering, Quality-of-Service,
emerging value-added services and applications.
Network Modeling and Analysis
***
Topology characterization, performance measurements, traffic
monitoring and analysis, use behavior modeling, Quality-of-
Experience, data-driven design, user profiling and tracking,
