CALL FOR PAPERS


4th Conference on Blockchain Research & Applications
for Innovative Networks and Services (BRAINS 2022)

https://brains.dnac.org/2022

September 27-30, 2022
Paris, France
(face-to-face, hybrid or virtual depending on situation in September)

- BRAINS 2022 is technically co-sponsored by IEEE, IEEE ComSoc.
- All accepted & presented papers will be submitted to IEEE Xplore.
- The best technical papers presented at the conference will be invited to submit an extended version for fast-track review in Annals of Telecommunications (Springer)

*****************************************************************************

Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) have the potential to disrupt any domain involving coordination among autonomous resources. This includes finance and payments (e.g., fintech), but also networks (e.g., power grids or telecom networks), computing (e.g., brokering of edge resources), IoT (e.g., supply chain, V2X or industry 4.0) or service platforms (e.g., identity management). BRAINS Conference is dedicated to these new advances that could make the world of networks and services more secure, while enabling disruptive new distributed business models.

Submission Guidelines

Submitted papers must represent original material that is not currently under review in any other conference or journal and has not been previously published. Long (8 pages) and short papers (4 pages) are welcome. All submissions should be written in English with maximum of eight (8) or four (4) printed pages (in Two-Column IEEE Conference Format), including text, figures and references. Papers should be submitted through EDAS at: https://edas.info/N29333

All accepted papers presented at the conference will be published in IEEE Xplore.
The three Best Paper finalists will be invited for a fast-track peer-reviewed publication in IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management.
