Researchers with relevant, recently published results are encouraged to apply for this prize, which will offer them the opportunity to present and discuss their work with the engineers, network operators, policy makers and scientists that participate in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and its research arm, the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF). The goal of the Applied Networking Research Prize is to recognize the best new ideas in networking, and bring them to the IETF and IRTF especially in cases where they would not otherwise see much exposure or discussion. The Applied Networking Research Prize (ANRP) consists of: * cash prize of $500 (USD) * travel grant to attend a week-long IETF meeting (airfare, hotel, registration, stipend) * invited talk at the IRTF Open Meeting * recognition at the IETF plenary * invitation to related social activities * potential for additional travel grants to future IETF meetings, based on community feedback HOW TO NOMINATE Only a single person can be nominated for the award. The basis of the nomination is a peer-reviewed, recently-published, original journal, conference or workshop paper they authored. The nominee must be one of the main authors of the nominated paper. Both self nominations (nominating one?s own paper) and third-party nominations (nominating someone else?s paper) are encouraged. The nominated paper should provide a scientific foundation for possible future IETF engineering work or IRTF research and experimentation, analyze the behavior of Internet protocols in operational deployments or realistic testbeds, make an important contribution to the understanding of Internet scalability, performance, reliability, security or capability, or otherwise be of relevance to ongoing or future IETF or IRTF activities. Applicants must briefly describe how the nominated paper relates to these goals, and are encouraged to describe how a presentation of these research results would foster their transition into new IETF engineering or IRTF experimentation, or otherwise seed new activities that will have an impact on the real-world Internet. The goal of the Applied Networking Research Prize (ANRP) is to foster the transitioning of research results into real-world benefits for the Internet. Therefore, applicants must indicate that they (or the nominee, in case of third-party nominations) are available to attend at least one of the year?s IETF meetings in person and in its entirety. Nominations must include: * the name and email address of the nominee * a bibliographic reference to the published nominated paper * a PDF copy of the nominated paper * a statement that describes how the nominated paper fulfills the goals of the award * a statement about which of the year?s IETF meetings the nominee would be available to attend in person and in its entirety * a brief biography or CV of the nominee * optionally, any other supporting information (link to nominee?s web site, etc.) Nominations are submitted via the submission site at http://irtf.org/anrp/2012/. In exceptional cases, nominations may also be submitted by email to anrp at irtf.org. SELECTION PROCESS A small selection committee comprised of individuals knowledgeable about the IRTF, IETF and the broader networking research community will evaluate the submissions against these selection criteria. IMPORTANT DATES Applications close: May 13, 2012 (hard) Notifications: June 1, 2012 SPONSORS The Applied Networking Research Prize (ANRP) is supported by the Internet Society (ISOC), as part of its Internet Research Award Programme, in coordination with the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF).

Committee on Computer Architecture (TCCA) The Eighth ACM/IEEE Symposium on Architectures for Networking and Communications Systems (ANCS) will be held October 29-30 at the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center on the campus of the University of Texas in Austin, TX, USA. This year, ANCS will be col-located with ICNP 2012 to reduce travel expenses for those who plan to attend both conferences. IMPORTANT DATES: Paper registration and abstract: May 18, 2012 Submission deadline: May 25, 2012 Author notification: August 18, 2012 CONFERENCE OVERVIEW: ANCS is a systems-oriented research conference, presenting original work that explores the relationship between the architecture of modern computer networks and the architecture of the individual hardware and software elements from which these networks are built. This year's conference will emphasize in its paper selection research on computer and network systems that provide the foundations of emerging network technologies and the future Internet. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * System design for future network architectures * Network architectures enabled by converged platforms * Virtualized infrastructure architectures, rationale, and devices * Converged router, server, and storage platforms * Content-centric architectures, platforms, and mechanisms * Scalable programming and application frameworks * High-performance / high-function packet processing platforms * Power- and size-optimized computer and communications platforms * High-speed networking mechanisms and algorithms * Network security architectures * Single-chip platform integration * Network measurement techniques, architectures, and devices * Techniques and systems for large-scale data analysis * Host-network interface issues * Architectures for data centers * Router and switch architectures * Software radios * Wireless-networking hardware and related software SUBMISSION PROCEDURES: Papers must be registered, with a title and abstract, no later than May 18, 2011 at 11:59PM EST (US). The deadline for submissions of full papers is May 25, 2011 at 11:59PM EST (US). There will be no extensions of this deadline. Please see the conference web site for detailed submission guidelines: The Program Committee may choose to accept certain papers conditionally, based on a shepherding process. BEST PAPER AWARD AND FAST-TRACK TO TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING ANCS 2012 will feature a best paper award, which will be announced at the conference. Some of the accepted papers will be fast-tracked as submissions to the ACM/IEEE Transactions on Networking. POSTER SESSION: ANCS 2012 will include a poster session. Submission deadlines and guidelines will be announced at a later date on the conference web site .
