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

The  11^th   International Conference on  Network of the Future ( NoF) 
is  inviting

authors to submit original contributions  in the area of Future Internet 
design,

with emphasis on enabling and cutting-edge technologies from the 
perspectives of

specification,  design and  analysis related to  network of future 
architecture,

applications, services, management, implementation, scalability, 
standardization,

business  and legal aspects, just to name a few.

The  conference  aims at  providing  a  forum  for  researchers,  
students, and

professionals  to exchange ideas,  share  their experiences,  and 
discuss their

research results around a single-track  of technical sessions  and a 
series  of

keynote speeches.

NoF 2020 will take place at the LaBRI Lab, Laboratoire Bordelais de 
Recherche en

Informatique (Bordeaux Computer Research  Laboratory).  LaBRI is located 
in the

campus of the University of Bordeaux.
