The 10th Asia-Pacific Workshop on Networking (APNet 2026) will take place on August 6–7, 2026, in Osaka, Japan. APNet aims to bring together the very best researchers in computer networking and systems across the Asia-Pacific region and around the globe to a live forum discussing innovative ideas at their early stages. The mission of APNet is that promising but not-yet-mature ideas can receive timely feedback from the community and experienced researchers, leading them into publications at major conferences such as SIGCOMM, NSDI, SOSP, OSDI.

We invite submissions of papers on a wide range of networking research, including, but not limited to:

Network architectures and algorithms
Cloud and wide-area networking systems & infrastructure
Networking for Machine Learning and Machine Learning for Networking
Operating system support for networking
High-speed networking and applications
Domain-specific networks including datacenter, storage, intra-host networks, etc.
SDN, NFV, and network programming
Networking hardware design and application
Network measurement, monitoring, diagnosis, and operations
Formal methods and network verification
Network security and privacy, censorship, transparency
Network, transport, and application-layer protocols
Resource management, QoS, and signaling
Routing, traffic engineering, switching, and addressing
Wireless, mobile, and sensor networking
Programmable End Host (e.g., eBPF, SmartNics)
