networking to application-focused IoT networks and trending areas like
quantum networking have been reported at this conference. Topics of
interest include, but are not limited to:

– Adaptive networking applications
– AI-enabled networking
– Big Data Networking
– Cloud computing and networking
– Cognitive radio networks
– Cross-layer optimization
– Cyber-physical systems
– Data center networking
– Decentralized Systems and Blockchain Networks
– Delay-tolerant networks
– E-Health networking
– Embedded networks
– Green networking
– Information-centric networking
– Internet of Things
– Local area networks
– Machine-to-machine communications for smart environments
– Mobile and ubiquitous networking
– Mobility and Location-dependent services
– Multimedia and real-time communication
– Network coding
– Network management, reliability and QoS
– Network Security and privacy
– Network traffic characterization and measurements
– Opportunistic networking
– Optical and high-speed access networks
– Overlay and peer-to-peer networks
– Performance evaluation of networks
– Personal and wearable networks
– Quantum communication and networking
– Routing and transport protocols
– Satellite communication and networks
– Smart Cities
– Smart Grid communications
– Social networks

– Test beds for network experiments
– Underwater sensor networks
– Vehicular networks
– Wireless ad hoc & sensor networks

Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, previously
unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference,
workshop, or journal. There are a number of tracks that are designed to
improve interactions of experts over different stages in research
development.

  * Full Regular papers (maximum 8 pages plus references, 10 pt font in
IEEE format) should present novel perspectives within the general scope
of the conference.
  * Short papers (maximum 6 pages plus references, 10 pt font in IEEE
format) are an opportunity to present preliminary or interim results on
hot topics in a poster session.
  * Doctoral track papers (maximum 6 pages plus references, 10 pt font in
IEEE format) provide a supportive setting for Ph.D. students (who must
be the first author) to discuss their problem statement, methods,
results, obtain feedback from established researchers and establish
contacts for entering the job market. The doctoral track involves a
mentoring program.
  * Special Tracks papers (maximum 6 pages plus references, 10 pt font in
IEEE format) focusing on nascent and promising areas in networking
research, which shall involve experts in those areas seeking to foster
collaborative development.

Full, short, special tracks, and doctoral papers are published in the
IEEE LCN proceedings and IEEE Xplore. All published papers must include
title, complete contact information for all authors, abstract, and
keywords on the cover page. IEEE reserves the right to remove papers
from IEEE Xplore that are not presented at the conference.

*** Paper submission ***

Papers must be registered on EDAS and submitted in PDF format. Detailed
submission instructions are available at the conference website. Direct
your questions to Program Chairs: Florian Tschorsch and Kanchana
Thilakarathna (program@ieeelcn.org).

A limited number of student grants and N2 Women Young Researcher
Fellowship awards are considered by the conference each year.

*** Keynote talks ***

Keynote 1: David Gesbert, EURECOM
Title: Learning and sensing in the sky with UAV-aided 6G Networks

Keynote 2: Anja Feldmann, Max Planck Institut für Informatik
Saarbrücken,
Title: Internet Traffic Analysis at Scale

Keynote 3: Dario Rossi, Huawei Paris Research Center,
Title: Foundational and Specialized Models for Cyberdefense

*** Remote Presentation Option ***

LCN considers in-person meetings indispensable for collaborations,
personal exchanges, discussions, and networking opportunities.
Recognizing the evolving landscape of academic conferences and the need
for flexibility, LCN 2024 introduces a Remote Presentation Option.

Upon acceptance/registration, authors have the option to select physical
or remote presentation modes. When opting for remote presentation, a fee
of 500 USD is required in addition to the author registration. This fee
covers supplementary costs associated with providing a remote option.
The additional fee for remote presentations may be waived when all
authors are from countries marked with an asterisk on the following list
of IEEE eMembership.

Countries: https://www.ieee.org/membership/join/emember-countries.html

Remote presentation is restricted to full, short, and doctoral papers.
Further implementation details will be communicated as part of the
author and presenter instructions.

The overarching goal of LCN 2024 is to enhance the accessibility and
inclusivity of LCN, catering to a diverse global audience while
preserving the value of physical participation.
