Call for regular papers
General call for contribution
The International Conference on the Design of Reliable Communication Networks (DRCN) has been held for more than 20 years, to address topics related to the reliability and availability of communication networks, and has
grown to become the meeting place where researchers from both industry and academia get together to advance the state-of-the-art in the field. The DRCN conferences have always been a multidisciplinary forum bringing
together scientists from diverse fields including engineering of survivable equipment and network technologies, network management and monitoring, and data analytics for fault diagnosis. The 19th edition of the conference
will be held in Vilanova i la Geltrú, Spain, from April 17-20, 2023. We are pleased to invite you to contribute in DRCN 2023 and we encourage you submitting novel and high-quality work to the conference.
Topics of interest for submission include, but are not limited to:
- Resilience in 5G/6G networks and services
- Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC)
- Deterministic and time sensitive networkin
