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

Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE ComSoc

Since its creation in 1998, The International Conference on the Design of Reliable Communication Networks (DRCN) has become over the years a well-established forum for scientists from both industry and academy who have interest in reliability and availability of communication networks, and related resilience topics. The aim of the conference is to bring together people from various disciplines, ranging from engineering of survivable equipment and network technologies to network management and monitoring, through methods and models for survivable and robust network design. As such, DRCN is a well-known forum for presenting excellent results and new challenges in the field of reliable communication networks and services.


We are pleased to invite you to contribute and participate in the 15th edition of DRCN in Coimbra, Portugal, on March 19-21, 2019.



Topics of interest for submission include, but are not limited to:

* Resilience in 5G networks

* Availability of 5G networks and services

* Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC)

* Design of resilient and reliable IoT systems

* Resilience in Software-Defined Networking (SDN)

* High-availability for Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) infrastructures

Paper Submission

The authors are invited to submit high-quality original technical papers for presentation at the conference and publication in the DRCN 2019 Proceedings. Only PDF files will be accepted for the review process and all submissions must be done electronically through EDAS: https://edas.info/N25127.


All submissions must be written in English and must use standard IEEE two-column conference templates that can be downloaded from: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html.


Papers can be of two types: Full papers or Short papers, up to 8 pages and 5 pages respectively, including tables, figures and references. Full papers accepted as short papers will be required to be reduced to 5-pages length.


At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register to DRCN 2019 to have his/her paper published in the conference proceedings. The paper must be presented at the conference by one author to be submitted for publication in IEEE Xplore.



Venue

The conference will take place at the University of Coimbra, Portugal.
