Call for Papers

The APNIC 44 Call for Papers is now CLOSED.

The APNIC Program Committee is now seeking presentations for the APNIC 44 Conference in Taichung, Taiwan. We are looking for content that would suit technical and Birds of Feather (BoF) sessions.

Please note, the dates have been shortened this year as the program committee is working to earlier deadlines so the APNIC conference programme can be announced earlier in future.
