Call for Papers

The conference welcomes submissions of original, high quality papers in all the areas of research related to the emerging idea of the future internet. The symposium will pay special attention to works that cross the boundaries of the major topics related to the idea of the Internet of the Future, such as "Software and Services",  "Networks and Mobility",  and "Content & Media". FIS 2008 will also put the emphasis on works that address issues that are "cross-cutting" such topics, such as security, trust, interoperability, reliability, infrastructures and architectures, experimental facilities, networks, service level agreements (SLAs), and semantics.

All submissions will be subject to peer review by at least two members of the program committee. Selection criteria include overall contribution to the future internet, accuracy and originality of ideas, clarity and significance of results, and quality of presentation. For each accepted paper, at least one author is required to attend the conference to present the paper.
