[CfP] CNSM - IWNC: 2nd Workshop on Integrated Wireless Networking and Computing
by GIOVANNI STANCO 31 Jul '25

31 Jul '25

It is our pleasure to announce that the 2nd Workshop on Integrated Wireless Networking and Computing (IWNC) is accepting submissions. **************************** 2nd Workshop on Integrated Wireless Networking and Computing (IWNC) colocated with the 21st International Conference on Network and Service Management (CNSM) October 27th, 2025, Bologna, Italy https://sites.google.com/view/iwnc2025/home-page **************************** The 2nd Workshop on Integrated Wireless Networking and Computing (IWNC) aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working at the intersection of advanced wireless communication and network-centric computing. As modern wireless networks, such as IoT, Wi-Fi, and 5G/6G, grow in scale and complexity, new challenges emerge in their design, optimization, and operation. Addressing these challenges increasingly requires integrated approaches that combine communication protocols with intelligent computing capabilities, both at the edge and within the network itself. Key to this integration are techniques that jointly optimize multiple network functions, such as resource allocation, scheduling, and link adaptation, while taking advantage of AI/ML-assisted methods to make networks more adaptive, efficient, and autonomous. In parallel, the rise of In-Network Computing (INC), enabled by advances in programmable data planes and languages like P4, is reshaping the way computation and data processing are distributed across the network fabric. IWNC welcomes original contributions that explore synergies between wireless networking and computing, including but not limited to: * AI/ML-driven optimization in wireless systems * Joint design of communication and computation functions * Programmable wireless networks and smart NICs * In-Network Computing architectures and applications * Cross-layer and cross-domain design approaches * Early-stage research ideas and system prototypes This workshop fosters discussion and collaboration across the wireless, networking, and computing communities, encouraging innovative perspectives and interdisciplinary solutions. **************************** Important Dates * Paper Submission Deadline: August 11, 2025 * Paper Acceptance Notification: September 8, 2025 * Camera-ready Version Due: September 14, 2025 ****************************

Request for Expert Input: Ranking Circumvention Methods for Network Shutdown Resilience
by Yasin, Miss Ammara Yasin 13 Jul '25

13 Jul '25

Hi all, I am a PhD student at University College London working with Dr Anna Mandalari and Dr Volker Stocker to develop a taxonomy of network shutdown circumvention methods, with a focus on their technical efficacy and operational viability in protest/conflict scenarios. Given the nature of this mailing list and your collective areas of expertise in this field, we would really appreciate if you could spare 20 minutes to help us validate this taxonomy by filling out a short form. You will be asked to rank 10 circumvention methods by a set of criteria extracted from the literature, and your rankings will directly inform a diagnostic tool for assessing circumvention strategies and guiding future development of tools. Please let me know if this sounds interesting to you and I will send the form across ASAP - please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions and thank you in advance for your time ! Yours, Ammara
