SIGCOMM 2007
The SIGCOMM conference is a single-track meeting where authors present papers describing significant research contributions to the field of computer and data communication networks. Papers are reviewed by a distinguished technical program committee (TPC) of 56 researchers from 11 countries around the globe. SIGCOMM is a selective conference where full papers typically report novel results firmly substantiated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis.
The papers are available online from the CCR online site.
The presentation slides and videos of the main conference and two workshops, NSDR and IPv6, are available at the SOI SICOMM2007 site.

Sally Floyd (ICSI), 2007 ACM SIGCOMM Award Winner
"Observations on Network Research and the Evolution of the
Internet Infrastructure"
Sally Floyd received a B.A from the University of California
at Berkeley in 1971. After working on computer systems for
Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) for many years, she returned to
graduate school in 1984, and received a Ph.D. from the
University of California at Berkeley in 1989, in the field of
theoretical computer science. Sally worked in Van Jacobson's
Network Research Group at Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory from 1990-1998. Since 1999 she has been at the
International Computer Science Institute (ICSI), also in
Berkeley. Her research interests include congestion control
in computer networks, the analysis of network dynamics, and
traffic measurement and modeling.
Sally has been active in the IETF (Internet Engineering Task
Force and was a member of the IAB (Internet Architecture
Board) from 2001 to 2005. She is an ACM Fellow and a recipient
of the 2005 IEEE Internet Award.
The Community Interest Session provides an opportunity for
making announcement about community services. Examples are
open-source software, publicly-available measurement data,
funding programs, toolboxes, etc. The session is informal and
each selected organization will be offered a 5-10 minute
slot.
To request a slot, please contact Katherine Guo "kguo at
lucent.com" before August 15 (Wed) 2007.
The SIG Executive Committee reports to the community about what it's doing, to solicit opinions on major changes to the conference (e.g., to do away with paper proceedings, or to make major changes in reviewing structure), and for the community to sound off about what it feels is important.
The 2007 vintage of the outrageous opinions session
will offer you two different ways to deliver your outrageous
message:
As usual, you will be able to use a 5mns slot with
as many slides as you want to bash Sigcomm, gossip on
some community member(s), etc. Whatever, as long as it
is not boring and makes us laugh.
If you're not sure about your skills to make us
laugh, you can sing or speak your outrageous opinion
on a popular song. Karaoke OOS speakers will be
offered a sake warm-up and a gift at the end of the
session.
SIGCOMM2007 gratefully acknowledges NTT-Communications for
financial support of this event.
