          <div>OVERVIEW</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>The International Conference on Networking, Architecture,
            and Storage provides a high-quality international forum to
            bring together researchers and practitioners from academia
            and industry to discuss cutting-edge research on networking,
            high-performance computer architecture, and parallel and
            distributed data storage technologies. NAS 2016 will expose
            participants to the most recent developments in the
            interdisciplinary areas. </div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>Authors are invited to submit previously unpublished work
            for possible presentation at the conference. The program
            committee will nominate best papers for recognition in each
            of the three conference topic areas. All papers will be
            evaluated based on their novelty, fundamental insight,
            experimental evaluation, and potential for long-term impact;
            new-idea papers are encouraged. All accepted papers will be
            published in IEEE digital library.</div>
