About

Proceedings of the ACM on Networking (PACMNET) is a journal for research relevant to multiple aspects of the area of computer networking.

We seek papers presenting significant and novel research results on emerging computer networks and its applications. We especially encourage submissions that present new technologies, novel experimentation, creative use of networking technologies, and new insights made possible using analysis.

We invite submissions on a wide range of networking topics, including:

    Protocols in different types of networks (public Internet, data center networks, home and enterprise networks, sensor networks, wireless networks, etc.)
    Network measurements and modeling, evaluation of networks and networked systems using diverse techniques (verification and modeling, trace driven simulation, testbed, in-the-wild experiments, etc.)
    Experience and lessons learned from deployments of networks and their applications
    Network management and control, including routing, traffic engineering, SDN, NFV, network programmability, etc., and
    Applications of machine learning in computer networking

In addition to papers on network technologies, we are also looking for papers on network properties such as policy and economics, security and privacy, reliability and availability, performance, energy efficiency, etc. We particularly welcome experimental results and papers offering additional artifacts such as code, datasets, etc., in the light of reproducibility.
