## Call for papers

We invite the submission of manuscripts presenting original research results to the IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Quality of Service (IWQoS) 2026, which will be held from June 29 to July 2, 2026, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Quality of Service (QoS) has long been a central focus for communications and networking researchers worldwide. While traditional QoS research areas continue to garner significant interest, emerging domains such as the AI systems, 5G/6G cellular networks, augmented and virtual reality, Internet of Things, data centers, virtualization, cloud and fog computing, and green computing are driving a new wave of research into service guarantees related to QoS, Quality of Experience (QoE), Quality of Protection (QoP), Software Quality, Data Quality, and, more broadly, Quality of Information Technology. For over two decades, IWQoS has established itself as a premier forum for presenting novel ideas on all QoS-related subjects. The 34th International Symposium on Quality of Service (IEEE/ACM IWQoS 2026) aims to continue this tradition as an international platform for the presentation and discussion of cutting-edge research in the field. The scope of IWQoS encompasses both the latest theoretical advancements and experimental research papers. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Authors are invited to submit manuscripts not exceeding 10 single-spaced, double-column pages (including references and appendices) using a font size of 10 points, formatted according to the standard IEEE template for LaTeX or Microsoft Word. Templates can be downloaded by selecting “Conferences” in the IEEE Template Selector at https://template-selector.ieee.org/. The review process will be double-blind, requiring submissions to avoid revealing the authors' names and affiliations, as well as to refrain from obvious self-references. Papers that do not adhere to these guidelines will be rejected without consideration of their merits. All submissions must be made electronically as PDF files. RESEARCH TOPICS Topics of interest include (but not limited to) the following areas: Artificial Intelligence for QoS QoS for AI training/inference systems Data analytics for QoS QoS for data analytics and machine learning QoS in Internet of Things (IoT), cyber-physical networks QoS in cloud computing, fog computing, and edge computing Blockchain for QoS Security, privacy, system dependability, resilience, and robustness QoS in software-defined networking QoS in information-centric networking QoS in mobile and next-generation cellular networks (5G and beyond) System dependability, availability, resilience, and robustness to faults and security attacks Robustness against security vulnerabilities in critical infrastructures QoS-aware scheduling, resource management, queue management, and admission control Traffic engineering approaches and tools for QoS provisioning and evaluation QoS evaluation metrics and methodologies Quality of software QoE in augmented and virtual reality systems Measurement, evaluation, adaptation, and verification Network operations, network economics, pricing, and billing Architectures and protocols for QoS, QoP, or QoE support Energy awareness in communication and computing systems Design for future networks and computing systems with integrated QoS QoS for quantum computing
