IEEE ANTS

IEEE ANTS is a premier IEEE forum on advanced networking and telecommunications topics. IEEE ANTS is financially and technically supported by IEEE Communications Society. The distinguishing characteristic of IEEE ANTS is the promotion of an intense dialogue between academia and industry to bridge the gap between academic research, industry initiatives, and governmental policies. This is fostered through panel discussions, keynotes, invited talks, and industry exhibits, where academia is exposed to state-of-the-practice and results from trials and interoperability experiments. The industry, in turn, benefits from exposure to leading-edge research in networking as well as the opportunity to communicate with academic researchers regarding practical problems that require further research.

This year the theme is â€œTowards a Hyper-Connected World: Emerging Trends in ICT”. In addition to the myriad of topics to be covered, special focus will be on accepting papers, which haves special focus on enabling technologies for communications in Smart Cities. As Indore is gearing up to build smart city, has been awarded as the cleanest city in India in 2017, the theme of the conference will foster an environment for deliberating on different research aspects on the said topic.
