Standards play a key role in the success of the communications industry, as enablers of global systems interoperability. IEEE CSCN aims for closing the gap between researchers, scientists and standards experts from academia, industry and different standardization bodies. It will serve as a platform for presenting and discussing standards-related topics in the areas of communications, networking and related disciplines, facilitating standards development as well as cooperation among the key players.

Please note the following important dates and consider contributing your work:

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Submission deadline (EXTENDED and FIRM):  15 June 2015 Acceptance notification:  15 August 2015 Camera ready: 5 September 2015

-------------------------------------------------------------------

IEEE CSCN is inviting submission of high quality technical as well as visionary papers, which will be reviewed and selected by an international Technical Program Committee (TPC) representing both academia and industry, with a strong standardization background. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, enhancements to existing systems and communication protocols developed by standards bodies such as ITU-T, IEEE, IETF, 3GPP, ETSI, OMA, GSMA, Broadband Forum, Metro Ethernet Forum, oneM2M, ONF, among others. Visionary papers on hot topics, such as Advanced 5G Radio Access and Network Infrastructure, Converged Access Networks, Optical Networks, Twisted Pair and Coaxial Access Networks, Software Defined Networks and Services, Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), and other works in progress being currently discussed by the standardization bodies will be included. The conference will also solicit papers on the relationship between innovation and standardization, technology governance of standards, the history of standardization, tools and services related to any or all aspects of the standardization lifecycle, and compatibility and interoperability, including testing methodologies and certification to standards.
