==============================================================================
Call for Demos
The 45th Annual IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks (LCN 2020)
==============================================================================

November 16-19, 2020
http://www.ieeelcn.org

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| IMPORTANT: After evaluating the current COVID-19 situation, the decision |
| has been made to transform LCN---including the Demo track---into an |
| all-digital conference experience. The conference dates remain the same. |
| Presentations of demos will be organized in a way that is convenient for |
| the various time zones. |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------


## Scope

IEEE LCN 2020 will feature a demo session with the aim of providing
demonstrations that validate important research issues and/or show innovative
prototypes. Authors are invited to submit technical demonstrations showing
innovative and original research. Proposals (no more than 3 pages) must be
submitted via EDAS to the LCN Demo Track, and describe the scope, significance
and required equipment. The proposal should include one page that describes
what conference participants will be able to see or experience during the
demonstration. The authors are encouraged to highlight the research component
of the demo and explicitly mention the novelty of the showcased technology/
solution.

IEEE LCN is looking for demonstrations in all topics covered by the main
conference and/or the symposium held in conjunction with LCN 2020. Research
prototypes as well as commercial products are welcome.

Demonstrations will be selected based on their merits and expected interest
from the LCN audience. A best demo award will be awarded to the demo with the
most votes from the audience.


## Important Dates

Demo Submission: Sep 22, 2020 (extended)
Demo Acceptance: Oct 13, 2020
Demo Camera Ready: Oct 27, 2020


## Proposal Submission

A proposal should include:

* the main idea of the demo,
* scope and significance of the demo, and
* equipment to be used for the demo.

In general, be as specific as possible in describing what you will demonstrate
or display as demo. Proposals (no more than 3 pages) can be submitted via
EDAS: https://edas.info/N27331

Florian Tschorsch (florian.tschorsch@tu-berlin.de)


## Background Information

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Consider an all-digital Demo Track as an opportunity to showcase your demo |
| in a way that was not possible in physical meetings or would have required |
| to travel with a lot of gear. We will do our best to accommodate demo |
| author needs to present and discuss the demo virtually. |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All demo proposals will be reviewed by the members of the Demo Board via an
EDAS score sheet. The scores will be provided to the authors along with the
notification.

For conference registration, a demo is not regarded as a paper, i.e.,

* demo presenters with no accepted conference or symposium papers must select
"non-author registration" when registering for the conference

* demo presenters with accepted LCN or symposium papers incur no extra charge
for a demo. The conference registration will cover their demo.
