IEEE INFOCOM 2023

Call for Workshop Proposals



17-20 May 2023

New York area, USA

The IEEE INFOCOM 2023 conference will be held in New York area, USA on
17-20 May 2023. In addition to the main conference technical program, the
conference will include a set of **Virtual Workshops**.



The goals of the workshops are to explore emerging research topics, and to
provide a forum for authors to present early research results on these
topics. We would like to have a limited number of workshops, with a high
quality program dominated by contributed papers. Contributions to the
workshops would be for presenting novel ideas in a less formal setting,
possibly more focused on a particular topic than the regular conference
sessions do. While we expect that workshop papers would be less mature than
a typical INFOCOM conference paper, they should present particularly novel
ideas and approaches, which have the potential to make their way to full
conference papers in future editions. Therefore, we expect that workshops
will run a rigorous review process, to make sure programs will be of high
quality. We will interact with the chairs of the selected workshops after
the review phase, to discuss with them about a suitable acceptance rate and
format of the workshop, based on the set of submitted and accepted papers.
We seek proposals from individuals and teams interested in organizing
strong workshops. Ideally, each workshop will be a full day, with 4-5
sessions of 1.5 hours each, or half day. The dates for paper submission,
notification, camera-ready version, and session times will be coordinated
across the selected workshops. Papers submitted to the individual workshops
should be due on *December 20, 2022* (tentative, the notification of
acceptance date of the INFOCOM 2023 main conference is *December 2, 2022*),
with the paper acceptance notification due on *Feb 6, 2023 *(tentative) and
camera-ready version due on *March 6, 2023 *(tentative).  All workshop
papers will be submitted for inclusion to IEEE Xplore as well as various
Abstracting and Indexing databases.
