ITNAC 2025 (International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference) will be hybrid, being held both onsite and online. Authors of accepted papers will be provided with an opportunity to participate in ITNAC 2025. We welcome the opportunity to ensure that our community can come together.

ITNAC Focus Topics
With the increasing focus on modelling and simulation in the fields of cyber networks, data mining, cyber security, distributed computing, mobile computing, cognitive computing, cloud computing, computing tools, applications, simulation tools, system performance, and data and computer communications, the demand for high-quality research outcomes has never been greater. ITNAC is the forum for researchers and engineers to present and discuss topics related to advanced computing and data communication network technologies, services and applications.

Novel contributions are presented in the form of keynote speeches by international experts, peer-reviewed technical papers, and posters. ITNAC 2025 seeks to address and capture highly innovative and state-of-the-art research from academia, industry, and standardization bodies.

ITNAC 2025 is an international conference and forum for the presentation of research outcomes, covering aspects of the modelling and simulation of distributed, mobile, cognitive, and cloud computing, computer and data communications, local and metropolitan networks, and optical, wired and wireless telecommunication networks and applications.
