CALL FOR PAPERS - IFIP AIMS 2016

The 10th IFIP International Conference on Autonomous Infrastructure,
Management and Security

June 20 - 24, 2016, Munich, Germany
http://www.aims-conference.org/2016/

Paper registration & submission deadline:*January 15, 2016*

**********************************************************************

The AIMS international conference is a single-track event, including conference paper sessions, hands-ons and keynotes, which focuses on early research done by PhD students and young researchers in network and service management and security. The participants find here a dedicated  place  for getting   a constructive  feedback  by senior scientists and they benefit from tutorials on transversal aspects of a research activity (e.g. publication strategies, paper reviewing, research presentation design). By taking part in a dedicated workshop, the PhD students are invited at an early stage to present and motivate their work as well as their research plans. Finally, by being involved in practical hands-on sessions, PhD students and young researchers will get an up-to-date knowledge combined with basic skills on emerging technologies. This way, AIMS acts as a complementary piece in the set of international conferences in the network and service management community.

AIMS 2016 is centered on the theme of management and security in the age of hyper-connectivity. New paradigms, smart and fully distributed algorithms, as well as large-scale virtualization have to be investigated to design scalable and resilient frameworks able to deal with more complex, more dynamic and hyper-connected environments, from cloud infrastructures to the Internet of Things. The design, monitoring, configuration and protection of the next generation of networked systems in an efficient, secure, and smart manner are crucial to commercially viable and successful networks and services.

Conference Paper Submission:

Only original, full  papers that have not been  published or submitted for publication  elsewhere can be  submitted. Each submission  must be written  in  English and  will  be  limited to 12  pages, references excluded,  in  the LNCS  paper  format. Papers  exceeding 12 pages, multiple  submissions, and self-plagiarized papers  will  be rejected without  further review. Paper  submission  is  handled  by the JEMS system, accessible from the AIMS 2016 web page.

PhD Student Workshop Submission:

The PhD  student  workshop  is open  to both junior  PhD (max 2 years) and prospective  PhD  students. Authors  are invited  to submit short papers  (4 pages  excluding references, written in English and in LNCS format) describing the  current state of their research.  The paper should include a  clear  description of  the research problem and the chosen approach, argue why the problem is hard and the approach novel, and it should  outline the results achieved to  date. Specific, low-level technical details should be avoided. Papers  will be evaluated based on  the proposed  idea, methodology and foreseen impact. Authors of the papers  should only  be  the student  and his/her advisor(s).

Proceedings

The  conference proceedings  will be  published in  Springer's Lecture Notes  of  Computer  Science   (LNCS)  series  and  will include the conference papers as well as the PhD student workshop papers.
