Mobile, Secure, and Programmable Networking.

Summary The rapid deployment of new infrastructures based on network virtualization and Cloud computing triggers new applications and services that in turn generate new constraints such as security and/or mobility. The International Conference on Mobile, Secure and Programmable Networking (MSPN) aimed at providing a top forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss new trends in networking infrastructures, security, services and applications while focusing on virtualization and Cloud computing for networks, network programming, Software Defined Networks (SDN) and their security. In 2018, MSPN was hosted by CNAM Paris, one of the oldest teaching center in Paris. The call for papers resulted in a total of 52 submissions from all around the world. Every submission was assigned to at least three members of the program committee for review. The program committee decided to accept 27 papers. The accepted papers are from: Algeria, Argentina, Benin, China, Colombia, France, Germany, India, Morocco, Norway, The Netherlands, Tunisia, The United Kingdom and Vietnam. Two intriguing keynotes from Professor Ruben Milocco of the University of Comahue, Argentina, and Professor Jean-Claude Belfiore, Head of the Communications Science Department at Huawei Technologies, France, completed the technical program. We would like to thank all who contributed to the success of this conference, in particular the members of the program committee and the reviewers for carefully reviewing the contributions and selecting a high-quality program. Our special thanks go to the members of the organizing committee for their greatful help. We hope that all participants enjoyed this successful conference, made a lot of new contacts, engaged in fruitful discussions, and had a pleasant stay in Paris, France.
