Description:
The track on Emerging Topics in Networking will bring together researchers who are working at the cutting edge of wireless communication, involving non-traditional paradigms such as intra-body and implanted networks including those that leverage innovative nano communication technologies and techniques (e.g., molecular communications, nano-electromagnetic communications, nano-bio interfaces); wireless networks on chip; quantum communication networks; ultra-broadband communications at true terahertz frequencies; and non-terrestrial and space networks, to name a few. Works on topics that are physically sound but for which the technology might not be ready yet are expected in this session, including early concept papers with high-risk high-reward ideas.
- Intra-body/implanted networks
- Molecular communications
- Electromagnetic nanonetworks
- Nano-bio interfaces (e.g., optogenetics, optogenomics, brain-machine interfaces)
- Wireless networks on-chip (e.g., from graphene antennas and silicon photonics to hyperthreading protocols)
- Quantum communications and networking (including on-chip, wired and wireless links)
- True Terahertz Networks
- Intelligent reflecting surfaces (e.g., from metasurfaces to orchestration protocols)
