Call For Papers - CFP

SDN (Software-Defined Networking) and NFV (Network Function Virtualization) are key technologies used to build modern computer networks and information infrastructures in general. Now, these technologies are used in practice in the World, including Russia. Nevertheless, many problems for research, development and practical application still remain.

The Conference organized on the basis of the Consortium of Universities "SDN in the scientific and educational environment" is to be held in Moscow. It is expected that many foreign specialists in the field of SDN and NFV will take part in the Conference. A special demo zone will also be organized to show the practical solutions.

The Conference will also include the School for young scientists, senior students and postgraduates on the application of Russian solutions on the basis of SDN and NFV. It will help to expand the professional circle of specialists capable of supporting and developing these technologies and solutions.
