The tenth Internet Measurement Conference is a three day
event focusing on Internet measurement and analysis, building on the success
of past IMCs. We invite
submissions of papers that contribute to our understanding of the Internet's
structure and behavior, as well as methods to collect or analyze Internet
measurements. Examples of relevant topics are:
- Internet traffic analysis
- Internet structure and topology characteristics
- Internet performance measurements
- Measurement-based network management such as traffic engineering
- Inter-domain and intra-domain routing
- Network applications such as multimedia streaming, gaming and on-line
social networks
- Measurements of content distribution, peer-to-peer, overlay, and social networks
- Data-centric issues, including anonymization, querying, and
storage
- Measurement-based inference of network properties
- Design of monitoring systems, sampling methods, signal processing
methods
- Network anomaly detection and troubleshooting
- Network security threats and countermeasures
- Software tools and environments in support of measurement
- Measurement-based assessment of simulation/testbeds
- Measurement-based workload generation
- Measurement-based modeling
- Reappraisal of previous measurement findings
- Internet-oriented wireless, and mobility measurement
Papers that do not in some fashion relate to measuring Internet
properties are out of scope. Authors can contact the Program Chair at
imc10-pc-chair@icir.org for clarification if they
are unsure whether their paper is in scope.
Ethical standards for measurement must be considered by all IMC authors. In
particular, authors must be aware of and conform to acceptable use policies
for individual domains that are probed or monitored, data privacy and
anonymity for all personally identifiable information, and etiquette for
using shared measurement data (see Allman and Paxson, IMC '07). If
applicable, authors are also urged to notify parties of security flaws in
their products or services in advance of publication. Adherence to ethical
standards for measurement will be a criteria for all submissions and
violations---including ambiguous situations not well described---will
be grounds for rejection.
Submission Guidelines
There are two forms of submissions:
- Full papers (up to 14 two-column pages) describing original
research, with succinctness appropriate to the topics and themes they
discuss.
-
Short papers (up to 6 two-column pages for text and figures + 1 page
for references) conveying work that is less mature but shows promise,
articulating a high-level vision, describing challenging future
directions, critiquing current measurement wisdom or offering results
that do not merit a full submission. Short papers will be subject to
a 7-page limit in the Proceedings (with the last page for references
only).
Note: Previous IMCs have utilized a "reject to short" notion
whereby full paper submissions have been accepted as short papers. IMC
2010 will not be using this procedure. Any submission longer than
allowed by the above short guidelines will be considered a full paper.
Note: Authors are encouraged to think carefully about whether to
submit a full or short paper. In the past there have been many instances
whereby a full submission has been found to be lacking enough technical
contribution for a full paper, but for which the PC finds an interesting
portion of the paper that would have been a very nice contribution as
a short paper.
Submissions must be in electronic form, as PDF documents. The
submission must conform to the page limits stated above, and with text
written in at least a 10-point font (Fonts used in Figures etc should
be no smaller than 9 pt) satisfying the requirements
specified below.
- use double column format
- the size of each column should be at most 9.25" by 3.33"
- the space between columns should be at least 0.33"
- use 10pt font
- use up to 55 lines of text per column
The
sig-alternate-10pt.cls style file should satisfy these
requirements.
- Please use -t letter when converting the .dvi file to pdf.
All manuscripts must be in English and do not need to be anonymized.
Submissions that do not
comply with these requirements will not be read.
Important dates
- May 10, 2010: 8AM EDT: Registration of title and 250-word
abstract
- May 17, 2010: 8AM EDT HARD
submission deadline
- July 28, 2010: Notification
- November 1-3, 2010: Conference held in Melbourne, Australia
The paper submission system is now
available.
To encourage broader data sharing in the community, the conference will
present a best paper award for the top paper that makes its data sets
publically available by the time of camera ready submission. For
example,
wireless-network data sets may be published through CRAWDAD. Authors that would
like their paper to be considered for this award should add a
footnote on the first page of their submission (and indicate this by
selecting the appropriate button on the paper registration/submission
page).
A limited number of travel grants may be available to students who
are unable to secure funding from their advisors.
