The 31st International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN) is organized by KIISE and technically co-sponsored by IEEE Computer Society. For the past 31 years, computer communication and networking technologies have changed every aspect of our lives and societies. While computer networks have contributed largely to the current ICT advancement, it will play a key role in new ICT paradigms such as IoT and cloud computing and will be applied to various areas of the upcoming society including industry, business, politics, culture, medicine and so on.

ICOIN is the most comprehensive conference focused on the various aspects of advances in computer communication and networking technologies. The main purpose of ICOIN 2017 is to improve our research by achieving the highest capability and encourage open discussions on computer communication and networking technologies. Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate recent advances in computer communications, wireless/mobile networks, and converged networks in the theoretical and practical aspects. Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings with an assigned ISBN number and submitted to IEEE Xplore, SCOPUS, and EI Compendex.

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate recent advances in computer communications, wireless/mobile networks, and converged networks. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

Machine learning/AI and its networked applications Wireless/mobile networks (WBAN/WPAN/WLAN/WMAN/WWAN) 5G/6G cellular systems and heterogeneous networks Future Internet and future networks Ad-hoc and sensor networks Autonomous networking Big data/Could computing and networks Cognitive radio, cooperative communication and networking Content distribution network (CDN) Contents/Information centric networking (CCN/ICN) Cross-layer design and optimization Cyber-physical system (CPS) Delay/Disruption tolerant network (DTN) Device-to-device communications Distributed database and data mining Energy-efficient protocols, green networks, and smart grid Internet and web-based database systems and applications Internet of things (IoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) communications Network performance analysis/measurement and evaluation

Authors are invited to submit full paper (up to 6 pages) or short paper (3 pages) electronically as PDF files through EDAS. The direct link for paper submission is http://edas.info/N22486.Details about the submission process including formatting instructions will be available at the conference website, http://www.icoin.org. Papers must be submitted using the IEEE conference template. The direct link for the template is http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html. All submitted papers are subject to peer reviews by Technical Program Committee members. Accepted papers for presentation in the conference will appear in the proceedings which will be available to participants during the conference. More details will be made available in subsequent announcements and on our website. There will be Best Paper Awards for outstanding contributed papers. All accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of ICOIN 2017.

The accepted paper will be presented either in an oral session or poster session. All accepted papers will appear in the ICOIN 2017 proceedings and will be submitted to IEEE Xplore if at least one of the authors attends the conference to present the paper.

ICOIN 2017 will present the Best Paper Awards to the authors of selected outstanding papers.

Extended versions of selected papers will be invited for publication in SCI(E)-indexed journals and SCOPUS Journals after an express review and revisions.
