ACM SIGCOMM HotNets'21
by Aaron Ding 09 May '21

09 May '21

IoT WG colleagues, the upcoming ACM SIGCOMM HotNets is looking forward to your submissions: https://conferences.sigcomm.org/hotnets/2021/cfp.html We invite researchers and practitioners to submit short position papers. We encourage papers that identify fundamental open questions, advocate a new approach, offer a constructive critique of the state of networking research, re-frame or debunk existing work, report unexpected early results from a deployment, report on promising but unproven ideas, or propose new evaluation methods. Novel ideas need not be supported by full evaluations; well-reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations can support the possibility of the paper’s claims. We seek early-stage work, where the authors can benefit from community feedback. An ideal submission has the potential to open a line of inquiry for the community that results in multiple conference papers in related venues (SIGCOMM, NSDI, CoNEXT, SOSP, OSDI, MobiCom, MobiSys, etc.), rather than a single follow-on conference paper. The program committee will explicitly favor early work and papers likely to stimulate reflection and discussion over “conference papers in miniature”. Finished work that fits in a short paper is likely a better fit with the short-paper tracks at either CoNEXT or IMC, for example. Submission and Formatting Submitted papers must be no longer than 6 pages (10 point font, 12 point leading, 7 inch by 9.25 inch text block) including all content except references. There are no limits for reference pages. The archive (https://conferences.sigcomm.org/hotnets/2021/hotnets21-template.zip) contains a LaTeX class file that follows the prescribed submission format and an example of a paper formatted using that class. All submissions must be blind: they must not indicate the names or affiliations of the authors in the paper. Only electronic submissions in PDF will be accepted. Submissions must be written in English, render without error using standard tools (e.g., Acrobat Reader), and print on US Letter paper. Papers must contain novel ideas and must differ significantly in content from previously published papers. Submit your papers on the HotNets'21 HotCRP: https://hotnets21.hotcrp.com/ Important Dates Abstract deadline: June 18, 2021 (6 pm EDT) Paper submission deadline: June 25, 2021 (6 pm EDT) Notification: August 27, 2021 Workshop: November 10-12, 2021 General Chairs Andrew Moore (Cambridge) Srinivasan Keshav (Cambridge) Program Chairs Minlan Yu (Harvard) Laurent Vanbever (ETH Zurich) Publicity Chair Aaron Ding (TU Delft) Publications Chair Gianni Antichi (Queen Mary University London) Program Committee Amin Vahdat (Google) Anees Shaikh (Google) Anja Feldmann (MPI) Aurojit Panda (NYU) Behnaz Arzani (Microsoft Research) Brighten Godfrey (UIUC and VMware) Bruce Maggs (Duke University, Emerald Innovations and MIT) Chunyi Peng (Purdue University) Costin Raiciu (University Politehnica of Bucharest) Dongsu Han (KAIST) Ellen Zegura (Georgia Institute of Technology) Fadel Adib (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Junchen Jiang (University of Chicago) Kai Chen (Hong Kong University of Science and Technology) Kyle Jamieson (Princeton) Larry Peterson (Open Networking Foundation) Michael Schapira (Hebrew University of Jerusalem) Mina Tahmasbi Arashloo (Cornell University) Nick Feamster (University of Chicago) Ori Rottenstreich (Technion) Paolo Costa (Microsoft Research) Peter Steenkiste (CMU) Phillipa Gill (Google) Radhika Niranjan Mysore (VMWare) Rajalakshmi Nandakumar (Cornell Tech) Ratul Mahajan (University of Washington, Intentionet) Srinivas Narayana (Rutgers University) Xin Jin (Peking University) Ying Zhang (Facebook) Zafar Ayyub Qazi (LUMS) [cid:9fd28856-46dd-42e8-84a8-fc2750e6f1f5] Cheers, Aaron

FW: [ripe-list] Community Wellbeing Survey
by sandoche Balakrichenan 04 May '21

04 May '21

Dear all, RIPE appreciates your feedback to the below mail which has been sent to the RIPE mailing list. Kind regards, sandoche -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: FW: [ripe-list] Community Wellbeing Survey Date: Tue, 4 May 2021 08:13:49 +0000 From: Erik Bais <ebais(a)a2b-internet.com> To: wg-chairs(a)ripe.net <wg-chairs(a)ripe.net>, Mirjam Kuehne <mir(a)zu-hause.nl> *From: *ripe-list <ripe-list-bounces(a)ripe.net> on behalf of Erik Bais <ebais(a)a2b-internet.com> *Date: *Friday 30 April 2021 at 17:59 *To: *ripe-list <ripe-list(a)ripe.net> *Cc: *Erik Bais <erik(a)bais.name> *Subject: *[ripe-list] Community Wellbeing Survey Dear RIPE Community, A couple months ago we began discussing in a small group the challenges around personal mental wellbeing in the RIPE community and how we could potentially investigate the issue and what we could potentially put in place to make things better. One outcome of that was the development of a questionnaire around how the community is coping in the current Covid-19 era. ( The questionnaire is here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JPNJG57 <https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JPNJG57> ) Participating in this is a personal decision for you but we do appreciate your feedback, either via the questionnaire or other means. As some of you may know, I did a presentation in 2019 at the Dutch Network Operator Group ( NLNOG ) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7areInUXbyo <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7areInUXbyo> about working in a toxic work environment and the risks of running into a burnout. This topic, ( having a burnout . .the risks and being able to talk about this in groups of small peers or even in public ) is in many countries and communities still a taboo topic. Based on the experiences that we have from that presentation and what it did for the people in the Dutch NLNOG community.. and providing a safe place for people to talk and discuss about this.. We decided that we also would like to see what the current state is in the larger community .. and start with a questionnaire on the topic. The feedback and results of the questionnaire ( and your input is highly appreciated if you participate ) will be looked at and I will do a presentation in a plenary at RIPE82 in a couple weeks. The goal is to see if we as a RIPE community need to provide similar ways for people in our region to (anonymously) be able to communicate about various topics that may or may not be directly work related. It could be that we need to have a place where we can discuss about the situation working remote .. not being able to go to the office.. the additional stress that this brings .. or that we need to talk about what all those additional social distancing rules bring to you.. or how you feel about these rules.. for some it is a blessing .. and for some it works like a new stress factor as the rules are changing per shop / public store / building .. and some of us like to have nice and clear directions .. But also about how people deal with the lockdowns .. and don’t get to meet other people that have a similar interest .. or a relation .. So what we like to see is how are you feeling .. how are you coping .. or not .. And then the question comes .. can we help .. and how I’m aware that I’m currently the one that is pushing this as a topic in public (and here for instance) .. but I’m very aware of the group of great people that helped to get this initiative and questionnaire to a state as where it is today. And I would especially like to thank Eileen (INEX), Mirjam ( RIPE Chair ), Carolien (NCC HR) , Alastair ( NCC ), Ulka ( NCC ) Alun ( NCC ), Vesna ( NCC - for her mad Wiki and notary skills ) and the people assisting in reviewing the questionnaire already for us. We like to get the information before May 11th 2021, so that we have some time to look at the results and prep the ppt for the week of the RIPE82 meeting. The data itself will be stored for max 2 weeks after that.. and only 1 admin from the NCC and the HR manager of the NCC will have access to the data, besides myself. As we use the NCC survey monkey account for the questionnaire. All questions can be skipped if you don’t feel like you want to answer a specific question. And feel free to reply here on the list .. or reach out to Mirjam, Eileen (both in CC: ) or myself in private if needed. We are planning a bit larger support group once we are done with the RIPE82 meeting on this. To minimize tracking by Survey Monkey .. You can paste the questionnaire URL in an incognito window.. The questionnaire is here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JPNJG57 <https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JPNJG57> Thank you all in advance and see you all at RIPE82.

Re: [iot-wg] [IoT WG Focus]
by Constanze Dietrich 23 Apr '21

23 Apr '21

Hi Peter! I think that's a great idea! Indeed, finding overlaps and ways to collaborate with other WGs was one of the ideas of the survey. I had posted it to the RIPE general mailing list as well but have only gotten very few responses from non-members (Btw... 11 responses from IoT WG members -- also not quite the quota I had hoped we'd be looking at...). In the back of my head, opportunities to work together are still best discussed in person over beverages, but I'd be happy to see IoT WG members sharing the link on other WG lists to get some more feedback before RIPE 82 (and thus, possibly more ideas to be discussed in the slot Sandoche and I saved for the results in the session agenda)!
