Conference Scope


The network of the future is envisioned as an effective, intelligent, adaptive, active and high performance Internet that can enable applications ranging from smart cities to tsunami monitoring. The network of the future will be a network of billions or trillions of entities (devices, machines, things, vehicles) communicating seamlessly with one another and is rapidly gaining global attention from academia, industry, and government.

The International Conference on Future Networks Systems and Security aims to provide a forum that brings together researchers from academia, practitioners from industry, standardization bodies, and government to meet and exchange ideas on recent research and future directions for the evolution of the future Internet. The technical discussion will be focused on the technology, communications, systems and security aspects of relevance to the network of the future.
