General Information

The 2024 Latin America Networking Conference (LANC 2024) will provide an international technical forum for experts from industry and academia, everywhere in the world, but especially from Latin American countries, to exchange ideas and present results of ongoing research in networking.

LANC 2024 will be held in collaboration with CLEI 2024, the 2024 Latin American Conference in Computing, organized in this opportunity by Universidad Nacional del Sur, Bahia Blanca, Argentina. It will be celebrated on August 15-16, 2024, as a hybrid conference (in-person and virtually). In addition to the traditional paper presentations, the conference will host tutorials and keynote speeches. You can download the Call for Papers in PDF format from this link.

Similarly to preview years, the organizing committee has started the negotiation with ACM to include the accepted papers in the ACM Digital Library.
