ITC 2019 - International Teletraffic Conference ITC 31

The INTERNATIONAL TELETRAFFIC CONGRESS ITC 31, to be held August 27-29,
2019 at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Hungary, is
the 31st edition of this international flagship congress in the field of
networking science and practice. ITC was founded back in 1955 by
enthusiastic scientists and engineers who were willing to deploy
networks in a holistic way. Since then, it has estab­lished a
multi-decade tradition as the primary forum for presenting and
dis­cussing the latest technical advances in the broad areas of
teletraffic models, network systems, and measurements.
For ITC 31, cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and experimentation
are solicited in all areas of networking, ranging from traffic
engineering and control with application to emerging
softwarized/virtualized networ­k paradigms, up to innovative wireless
scenarios brought about by the emergence of 5G and IoT systems. We
especially encourage original contributions which bridge the gap between
performance modeling and real-life operational aspects, including works
which leverage measurement data to provide a better understanding of the
wired and wireless networks’ operation under realistic conditions.
ITC 31 is specifically focused on four (partially overlapping,
non-exclusive) areas:
• Performance Evaluation, Control and Optimization
• Network Measurements, Big Data, Machine Learning for Network Optimization
• Networking Architectures and Paradigms
• Wireless and Cellular Networks
Besides the general submissions ITC31 encourages submissions for Ph.D.
session, Poster/Demo session, etc. For detailed information and
deadlines check the website frequently. For any questions do not
hesitate to contact the conference organization under
itc31-AT-lists.t-teletraffic.org.

Submission guidelines
Full papers must contain original work, currently not under review for
other journals or conferences pages, and may comprise of a maximum of 9
A4 (210 mm x 297 mm) pages in 2-column IEEE conference style with a
minimum font size of 10 pt. Papers should be submitted electronically
using the Easychair online submission system
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=itc31). Submitted papers are
single-blind reviewed. Please include author names and affiliations in
your manuscript as in the provided template under
https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templa.... All accepted
papers must be presented at the conference by one of the authors
registered with full paper rate until June 17, 2019. Papers not covered
by any registration by that deadline will automatically be removed from
the final program. Different rules apply for the other submission
possibilities like Ph.D. session and Poster/Demo session.
ITC follows an open access strategy. Accepted ITC conference and
workshop papers can be downloaded from the open ITC digital library. In
addition, ITC makes the effort to index accepted papers in public A&I
databases. By getting sponsorship of technical communities like IEEE and
ACM, as well as sticking to corresponding rules with respect to
technical quality, papers of previous ITC editions were included in the
corresponding databases IEEE Xplore and ACM DL. Since ITC retains the
copyrights, it is possible to make the papers accessible for free even
in those public databases. This helps to increase the visibility and
accessibility of accepted papers.
