Overview

The Nineteenth ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networks (HotNets-2020) will bring together researchers in computer networks and systems to engage in a lively debate on the theory and practice of networking. HotNets provides a venue for discussing innovative ideas and for debating future research agendas in networking.

Virtual Event Information

In light of continued effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, HotNets 2020 will be a fully virtual event. We will take this opportunity to deploy and try out several new features designed to encourage interaction and discussion at HotNets.

• In contrast to the invite-only format in previous years, registration for HotNets 2020 is open to all members of the community.

• There are two types of access to the workshop: Live interactive zoom sessions for registered attendees, and concurrent streaming YouTube broadcasts for other viewers.

• In addition to Zoom/YouTube, parallel discussions and Q&A will be hosted on Slack, which is also open to the general public.

• Finally, Hotnets 2020 will be a 3-day event (3.5 hours per day)
  November 4th, 2020 (Wed): 8:45AM to 12:30PM (US Central Time)
  November 5th, 2020 (Thur): 9:00AM to 12:30PM (US Central Time)
  November 6th, 2020 (Fri): 9:00AM to 12:30PM (US Central Time)

We hope that this combination of tools and platforms will facilitate more lively discussions on new ideas and future research topics. Registered attendees will receive zoom session information via email, and details on YouTube broadcasts and Slack are posted on the program page.

Please note: we have reached registration capacity for HotNets! Registration is now closed.
We look forward to seeing you all at HotNets 2020!
