Submission Details
2018 1st IEEE International Conference on Hot Information-Centric Networking (HotICN) has been officially approved by IEEE. All accepted papers will be published by IEEE, which will be submitted EI, CNKI index.Excellent papers may be selected and published on SCI or EI journals.
- Regular Papers: up to 6 pages in length (for all ICN，Blockchain, Knowledge Graph tracks. excluding references, may need extra fees for addtional pages);
- Industry Papers or Demos, 2 pages (including references), only for the BlockChain Track;
- Posters and Demos, 2 pages (including references) are welcomed for Knowledge Graph Track.
Submissions will be reviewed and evaluated on the basis of originality, importance of contribution, soundness, evaluation, quality of presentation and appropriate comparison to related work. The program committee as a whole will make final decisions about which submissions to accept for presentation at the conference. A “best paper award” will be attributed from the program committee to one among the accepted papers.
To submit papers and abstracts to the HotICN 2018 conference, first carefully read the the submission instructions.
