********************************************************************************<br>
<br>
The 11th International Conference on Network of the Future (
NoF) is inviting <br>
authors to submit original contributions in the area of Future
Internet design, <br>
with emphasis on enabling and cutting-edge technologies from the
perspectives of <br>
specification, design and analysis related to network of future
architecture, <br>
applications, services, management, implementation, scalability,
standardization, <br>
business and legal aspects, just to name a few. <br>
The conference aims at providing a forum for researchers,
students, and <br>
professionals to exchange ideas, share their experiences, and
discuss their <br>
research results around a single-track of technical sessions
and a series of <br>
keynote speeches. <br>
<br>
NoF 2020 will take place at the LaBRI Lab, Laboratoire Bordelais
de Recherche en <br>
Informatique (Bordeaux Computer Research Laboratory). LaBRI is
located in the<br>
campus of the University of Bordeaux. <br>
<br>
