ACM SIGCOMM 2023 Call for Tutorials and Hackathons: https://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2023/cf-tutorials.html * Call for Tutorials and Hackathons * We are excited to announce that proposals for Tutorials and Hackathons for SIGCOMM 2023 can now be submitted at https://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2023/cf-tutorials.html We seek to extend the SIGCOMM experience by tutorials on selected topics given by renowned scientists and practitioners in their fields. We therefore solicit proposals for full-day or half-day tutorials on topics relevant to the SIGCOMM community. We also solicit proposals to organize hackathons co-located with SIGCOMM. Tutorials must cover advanced topics that fit the scope of SIGCOMM and are of current interest to the SIGCOMM community. Tutorials may be lectures, interactive workshops, hands-on training, or any combination of the above. Successful tutorials educate the community members on emerging methods, concepts, and tools to expand the research capabilities of the community. Cross-disciplinary topics are also welcome. Exploring diverse ways of organizing the content, delivering the tutorial, and interacting with the audience are especially encouraged. A hackathon is an intense goal-oriented team-work activity organized in a sprint-like one-day event, where members from various backgrounds and expertise come together to work towards the stated goals of the hackathon. We encourage applications from all fields that fit the interest of the SIGCOMM community. The current plan is that SIGCOMM 2023 will be an in-person conference. Still, we ask the authors to have a "plan B" for an online tutorial/hackathon, in case there are unexpected travel restrictions due to COVID-19 at the time of the event. Tutorial and hackathon proposals should be submitted in PDF format, should not exceed three (3) pages in total, and be sent to the Tutorial/Hackathon Chairs via the submit button on the above web site. The deadline for submission is April 21, 2023. The notification of acceptance will be sent out on May 12, 2023. You can find more information about submission guidelines: https://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2023/cf-tutorials.html For any questions or clarifications, please contact the Tutorial/Hackathon Chairs, via the button at the above web site.

by Jelena Cosic 01 Mar '23

01 Mar '23

Dear colleagues, hope you're all doing well. The application round for SEE 11 has been closed and the final selection of successful candidates has been made. Congratulations for those selected and say thank you to all that sent their proposals in. If your application was locally relevant but hasn't been selected, don't give up just yet - we have more events lined up! ------------------------------------------------------ NEW MEETING ADDED TO THE RACI APPLICATION CALENDAR ------------------------------------------------------ It is my pleasure to announce that RIPE NCC will be organising another event in the SEE region. The meeting will be held in Sofia, Bulgaria on June 27-28. It will be an opportunity for the technical community in Bulgaria and broader SEE community to come together and share knowledge and experiences, and to identify areas for regional cooperation. The event is open to all and there is no cost to attend. RIPE NCC will be supporting the academic participation through RACI programme once again. The RACI call for application is already open, please apply before April 23: https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/raci/raci For people that have already applied for SEE11 and/or RIPE 86, please submit your application details again and only tick the "RIPE NCC Days Sofia" box when doing so. MEETING: RIPE NCC Days Sofia DATE: 27-28 June 2023 RACI APPLICATION FORM: https://www.ripe.net/participate/forms/apply/raci-application-form-2023/ RACI DEADLINE: 23 April 2023 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- RIPE 86 REGISTRATION OPEN & RACI RIPE 86 APPLICATION ROUND CLOSES SOON ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Registration for the RIPE meeting is officially open : https://ripe86.ripe.net/attend/register/ If you work in academia and have an interesting research you want to present to the RIPE community, you still have a week to apply for the RACI programme - applications will be closed on March 9 at 23:59 UTC+1. MEETING: RIPE 86, Rotterdam DATE: 22-26 May 2023 RACI APPLICATION FORM: https://www.ripe.net/participate/forms/apply/raci-application-form-2023/ RACI DEADLINE: 9 March 2023 If you are member of RIPE community interested in attending RIPE meeting but do not have a research ready for a presentation, you can apply to join us as a fellow via RIPE Fellowship programme. The Programme provides basic assistance for successful candidates to participate in a RIPE Meeting. It is open to all in the RIPE NCC service region and might be especially interesting for students. As mentioned, the selected candidates will get a chance to join us for the meeting but unlike RACI, they do not have the opportunity to present their work to the community and that is what distinguishes these two initiatives. The RIPE Fellowship is still a great way to get involved with the RIPE Community. If you know anyone that might be interested, please let them know about this opportunity. The application deadline is the same as for RACI: March 9 at 23:59 UTC+1. More information on Fellowship programme and how to apply here: https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/ripe-fellowship If you have any questions about RACI or Fellowship, please feel free to contact me.
