SUMMARY:Thought experiments, data and reproducibility for networking and FutureG research (SLICES) 2024
DESCRIPTION:\nScope of the workshop\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nResearch in digital infrastructures as well as in other scientific domains is data driven with a strong transformative effect on the discovery process and the pace at which results and scientific publications are produced. However, it is of utmost importance to question the methodology that is used and the validity of the results produced. This is the case for instance with the growing set of publications involving AI/ML solutions.\n\n\n\nSeveral scientific domains recognize the value of experimentally-driven research and the impact of data sharing. The FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) Data Principles were developed to be used as guidelines for data producers and publishers, with regards to data management and stewardship. One important aspect that differentiates FAIR from any other related initiatives is that they move beyond the traditional data and they place specific emphasis on automatic computation, thus considering both human-driven and machine-driven data activities. Since their publication, FAIR principles became widely accepted and used.\n\n\n\nMore and more, research stakeholders nowadays require that research data is made available for other researchers to examine, experiment and develop further. Additionally, preserving the data in conjunction with how conclusions from the data were drawn, accelerates the discovery process, enable easier reproducibility of the results and thus supports evidence. It is then necessary lower the barrier for researchers to make this extra effort, before eventually, developing policies and procedures for regulating the management and publication of research data in order to make them interoperable and widely available.\n\n\n\nIn addition, the community strongly supports the necessity for reproducibility and several esteemed initiatives have been developed. Unfortunately, very little has been achieved because the incentive is low to produce this extra effort and it does not scale as the burden is not on the authors.\n\n\n\nThis workshop is a place for discussing, tough experiments, platforms, data and reproducibility that could structure and benefit the research community focusing on Future G Networks. Original papers are welcome on any of these topics.\n\n\n\nWe believe that this is a topic of utmost importance for the research community and in particular for the Networking 2024 attendance, both as potential users and contributors who could contribute to make this fled a more mature and responsible science.\n\n\n\nThis workshop will be held exclusively in-person.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTopics of interest:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe solicit original papers including but not limited to thought experiments, testing, data sharing, reproducibility in the following domains (not

(double-column, 10pt font), with a maximum length limit of 6 (six) printed pages, including all figures, references, and appendices.\n\n\n\nPapers should be submitted through EDAS in PDF using the following link:https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=31469&track=123076\n\n\n\nOnly original papers that have not been published or submitted for review elsewhere will be considered for publication in the proceedings.\n\n\n\nPapers will appear in the conference proceedings and will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements.\n\n\n\nAt least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present the work in the workshop.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTPC Co-Chairs\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSerge Fdida, Sorbonne Université, EU ESFRI
