## Call for papers

GENERAL INFORMATION During the last decade, we have witnessed rapid developments in various networking, computing, and AI technologies, and many forms of networks and systems have become essential parts of our daily lives. With the proliferation of B5G/6G, artificial intelligence, IoT, and future wireless technologies, there is a fast-growing interest in ubiquitous and future networks. Building on the success of the last 16 years, the 17th International Conference on Ubiquitous and Future Networks (ICUFN 2026) aims to address advances in research on ubiquitous and future networks, covering topics ranging from fundamental technologies to emerging applications and testbed developments. ICUFN 2026 solicits original, unpublished contributions in all aspects of ubiquitous and future networking and systems. Short papers presenting early-stage research, position papers proposing new directions, and industry contributions are also welcome. The conference is organized by KICS. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the ICUFN 2026 Conference Proceedings with an assigned ISBN and included in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for publication in SCI(E)-indexed international journals.
