NDNComm is an annual event that brings together a large community of researchers from academia, industry, and government, as well as users and other parties interested in the development of Named Data Networking (NDN) technology. NDN is a new Internet architecture
that allows content to be directly named and accessed at the network layer. By aligning the network service with application needs, NDN offers many advantages, including better trustworthiness, scalability, and resiliency, in network communication. In particular,
NDN is especially suitable for emerging network environments such as edge computing and Internet of Things (IoT).

NDNcomm provides a community forum to discuss the state of NDN protocols, software, testbed, and its application to various network environments. While the topics cover all aspects of NDN, this year we are particularly interested in new ideas and recent or
ongoing progress on NDN in edge computing and IoT. We invite submissions from the broader NDN community for presentations, posters, demos, and panels on topics including but not limited to:
