The authors are encouraged to submit via EDAS (https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=19351) papers describing original, previously unpublished research results, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and development in the area of reliable networks design and modeling. All submitted papers will be reviewed. The total length of a paper should not exceed 7 pages formatted according to the two-column template. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. The Best Paper Award will be given. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important dates: - Paper submission deadline: April 20, 2015 - Notification deadline: June 15, 2015 - Camera-ready: June 30, 2015 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RNDM 2015 Organization: ----------------------- General Chair Jacek Rak, Gdansk University of Technology (PL) Co-chairs Carmen Mas Machuca, Technische Univ.
