*SDS 2024 CFP *


The International Conference on Software Defined Systems (SDS-2024) invites
researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to submit their innovative
research contributions and practical experiences in the rapidly evolving
field of software-defined systems and the broader concept of
softwarization. As we transition towards more dynamic and flexible IT
infrastructures, softwarization—the process of shifting traditional
hardware functionalities into software—plays a critical role in enabling
unprecedented levels of efficiency, scalability, and automation. SDS-2024
aims to be a premier platform for the exchange of ideas and advancements in
software-defined systems and softwarization, covering a wide range of
topics from foundational theories to practical implementations. The
conference will explore the latest trends and challenges in
software-defined networking (SDN), software-defined storage (SDS),
software-defined data centers (SDDC), and beyond. It will also address the
integration of these systems with emerging technologies such as edge
computing, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT). We encourage
submissions that present original research, case studies, best practices,
and future directions in the following areas, but not limited to :

- Software-defined networking (SDN) architectures and protocols
- Software-defined storage (SDS) solutions and innovations
- Software-defined data centers (SDDC) design and management
- Automation and orchestration in software-defined environments
- Security and privacy in software-defined systems
- Performance optimization and monitoring in software-defined
infrastructures
- Integration of software-defined systems with cloud and edge computing
- Applications of AI and machine learning in software-defined systems
- Real-world case studies and industrial applications
- Policy-based management and orchestration in software-defined environments
- Challenges and solutions in deploying software-defined systems at scale
- Network function virtualization (NFV) and its applications
- Software-defined IoT architectures and applications
- Emerging trends and future directions in software-defined systems
- Standardization and interoperability in software-defined ecosystems
- Softwarization of network functions and its impact on IT infrastructures
- The role of softwarization in enhancing agility and flexibility of
services
- Softwarization strategies for legacy system transformation
- Impact of softwarization on business models and service delivery
- Big data analytics in software-defined environments
- Edge and fog computing in software-defined systems
- Digital twins and virtualized environments
- Software-defined security solutions and frameworks
- Business intelligence and decision-making in software-defined ecosystems
- Semantics and knowledge graphs in software-defined systems
- Cross-layer design and optimization in software-defined networks
- Cloud-native architectures and microservices
- Green and sustainable computing in software-defined environments

SDS-2024 provides a unique opportunity to network with peers, share
knowledge, and collaborate on advancing the state-of-the-art in
software-defined systems and softwarization. We welcome submissions from
academia, industry, and government that contribute to the conference's goal
of fostering innovation and excellence in this critical field. Join us at
SDS-2024 to be part of the conversation that is shaping the future of
software-defined systems and driving the next generation of IT
infrastructure through softwarization.

*Submissions Guidelines and Proceedings*

Manuscripts should be prepared in 10-point font using the IEEE 8.5" x 11"
two-column format (IEEE Templates
<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/0FRWCr810kCvBLJEfz4LG3?domain=ieee.org>).
All papers should be in PDF format, and submitted electronically at
Paper Submission
Link <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sds20240> . A full paper must
not exceed the stated length (including all figures, tables and
references). Submitted papers must present original unpublished research
that is not currently under review for any other conference or journal.
Papers not following these guidelines may be rejected without review. Also
submissions received after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not
appropriately structured may also not be considered. Authors may contact
the Program Chair for further information or clarification. You can submit:

1- A full paper between 6 and 8 pages (including all figures, tables and
references).

2- Short papers are between 3 and 4 pages long, including position papers
and industrial demos or project proposals including PhD project proposals.

3- Extended abstract: High-level summary of your research / position paper/
industrial application / Running (funded or non funded) projects or project
Ideas/ PhD thesis extended Abstract (2 pages)

4- Abstract: Synopsis of your research, including running (funded or non
funded) projects (500 words)


All submissions are peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers. Accepted
papers will appear in the SDS 2024 Proceeding and to be submitted to IEEE
Xplore for inclusion. The proceedings are also submitted for indexing to EI
(Compendex), Scopus and other indexing services like DBLP.

Submitted papers must include original work, and must not be under
consideration for another conference or journal.  Authors of accepted
papers are expected to present their work at the conference. Submitted
papers that are deemed of good quality but that could not be accepted as
regular papers will be accepted as short papers.
