Digital transformation is at the heart of our society. This evolution is made possible by the deployment of a network, computing and service infrastructure that is highly sophisticated in terms of its size, the diversity of its components and the range of uses it allows. Such an infrastructure is made of a large set of heterogeneous hardware/software components resulting in a system of systems whose availability, reliability, performance, interoperability and energy efficiency are becoming major challenges. In order to overtake them, there is a need to automate the full cycle of the continuum. A special focus will be set on the conference theme “Towards full life cycle automation in the IoT-edge-cloud continuum”.

28th Conference on Innovation in Clouds, Internet and Networks (ICIN) is technically sponsored by IEEE. The conference proceedings are likely to be indexed in databases such as Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), Google Scholar, and others.
