The 2027 Internet Measurement Conference (IMC) is a four-day event (plus one day for workshops) focusing on Internet measurement and analysis. The conference is sponsored by ACM SIGCOMM. IMC 2027 is the 27th in a series of highly successful Internet Measurement Workshops and Conferences.
The ACM IMC 2027 conference will be held from October 25-29, 2027 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Announcements
IMC 2027 will have two deadlines (November 17, 2026 and April 7, 2027), a short rebuttal phase, and an optional one-shot-revision process across deadlines. The key goal of these processes and deadlines is (i) to further enhance the quality and timeliness of the papers we publish; (ii) provide more flexibility in submission timing, with guaranteed timeliness of reviews; (iii) give authors a brief, dedicated opportunity to address misunderstandings, clarify technical details, and answer specific questions raised by reviewers before final acceptance decisions are made; (iv) allowing exciting but not-yet-ready papers to receive a one-shot-revision decision in lieu of rejection (allowed only for one round); and allow researchers to spread out their submissions across the year and submit high quality work. As these processes will affect decisions and submissions please see the Call for Papers. Also note that papers rejected from IMC 2026 Cycle 2 cannot be submitted to the IMC 2027 Cycle 1 deadline.
- 2026-10-17: The Call for Paper Submissions is up. Register your paper by November 10, 2026.
