Call for Papers
IEEE International Conference on Cloud Networking
IEEE CloudNet 2019
November 4-6, 2019 in Coimbra, Portugal
http://cloudnet2019.ieee-cloudnet.org/
=============================================================
Cloud Networking has emerged as a promising direction for cost-efficient
and reliable service delivery across data communication networks. The dynamic
location of service facilities and the virtualization of hardware and
software elements are stressing the communication network and protocols,
especially when data centers are interconnected through the Internet.
Emerging technologies like Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software
Defined Network (SDN) can play significant roles by improving the dynamicity
and programmability of cloud networks. Middlebox has been significantly
improved the agility of cloud network deployment and management.
The 8th IEEE International Conference on Cloud Networking (IEEE CloudNet 2019),
part of the IEEE Cloud Computing Initiative, can greatly promote researches
in cloud network and emerging research areas.
