NOMS2024 Call For Papers

Overview

The Doctoral Symposium is a concentrated half-day event that will be held during IEEE/IFIP NOMS 2024, which will be held 6-10 May 2024 in Seoul, South Korea. In it, Ph.D. students present their ongoing research interests/plans/results to a panel of researchers in the field and receive specific constructive feedback, including opportunities to meet with mentors one-on-one.

We encourage students to submit research description papers that clearly motivate, discuss, and summarize their Ph.D. research. Accepted papers (four pages maximum) will be published in the conference proceedings and be included in the online IEEE/IFIP NOMS conference proceedings and archived in the IEEExplore digital library once presented by the Ph.D. students during the conference.
