IMC 2016 - 2016 Internet Measurement Conference

The Internet Measurement Conference (IMC) is a highly selective venue for the presentation of measurement-based research in data communications. The focus of IMC 2016 will be on research that either improves the practice of network measurement, or illuminates some facet of an operational network, or both. IMC takes a broad view of contributions that are considered in scope for improving the practice of network measurement, including, but not limited to:
collection and analysis of data that yield new insights about network structure and network performance (e.g., traffic, topology, routing, energy utilization)
collection and analysis of data that yield new insights about application and end-user behavior (e.g., economics, privacy, security, application interaction with protocols)
modeling of network internals and application behavior (e.g., workloads, scaling behavior, assessment of performance bottlenecks)
methods and tools to monitor and visualize network-based phenomena
novel systems and algorithmic techniques that leverage measurement-based findings
advances in data collection, analysis, and storage (e.g., anonymization, querying, sharing)
reappraisal of previous empirical findings
Operational networks of interest include:
the Internet backbone
edge networks (e.g., home networks, cellular networks, WLANs)
data centers and cloud computing infrastructure
peer-to-peer, overlay, and content distribution networks
infrastructure for online social networks
experimental networks, prototype networks, and future Internets
