Instructions for authors

Submissions are welcome for oral communications, for posters and for software demonstrations.

Abstracts for oral communications, posters and software demonstrations must be submitted through EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=nettab2018 for the proper evaluation.
Accepted abstracts must then be revised and resubmitted for inclusion in the Proceedings.
No Copyright form or permission is required for abstracts, since proceedings won’t be officially published.
