CALL FOR APPLICATIONS - Internet of Rights Fellowship - ARTICLE 19
by Niels ten Oever 25 Feb '17

25 Feb '17

CALL FOR APPLICATIONS - Internet of Rights Fellowship - ARTICLE 19 The Internet is shaping our societies but who is shaping the development of the Internet? And what standards should this development be based on? The Internet of Rights Fellowship Program aims to facilitate stronger considerations for human rights within Internet governance processes and to shape the human rights agenda for the Internet. Currently, there is little diversity among participants in Internet governance proce sses, resulting in approaches to policymaking that are not open or inclusive. ARTICLE 19 seeks to effectively promote and protect key democratic values and increase the diversity of engagement within Internet governance forums, so that there is a greater pluralism of voices within these spaces that especially includes those that have been underrepresented until now. Over the course of this program, Fellows will be introduced to the technical and policy discussions across the Internet governance landscape, and will be trained to meaningfully develop human rights considerations within these discussions. As a result, Fellows will be well-equipped to continue developing a robust approach to human rights within these technical communities beyond the life of the program. The structure of the work will be very much based on training and mentoring while actively engaging in on-going Internet governance processes in the IEEE, ICANN, IETF and ITU. Work with us on concrete workstreams, or suggest your own project! More information about the programme, the streams and the application process can be found here: https://www.article19.org/pages/en/article-19-fellowships.html Length of the programme: 1 year (with the possibility of 1 year extension) Start: May 2017 Deadline for application: March 17 2017 Which forums are focused on: IEEE, ICANN, IETF, ITU Non-salaried (but travel to IG fora, accommodation and other costs are covered) If you have any questions, please feel free to contact mehwish(a)article19.org or me. All the best, Niels -- Niels ten Oever Head of Digital Article 19 www.article19.org PGP fingerprint 2458 0B70 5C4A FD8A 9488 643A 0ED8 3F3A 468A C8B3

Can't afford to attend a RIPE Meeting? Apply for the RIPE Fellowship!
by Gergana Petrova 06 Feb '17

06 Feb '17

Hi all, Do you want to attend the next RIPE Meeting? But you don't have any research to present yet, so you cannot apply for RACI... In that case, give the RIPE Fellowship a try. This new program covers ticket, travel & accommodation for five applicants to attend the RIPE Meeting. This way we hope to make it easier for community members from the more remote parts of our service region to participate in the meetings. Applications for RIPE 74 (8-12 May 2017 in Budapest) close on 3 March. http://bit.ly/2jTwkmc If you are not interested yourself, but know someone who might be, please encourage them to apply. Best regards, Gergana -- Gergana Petrova External Relations RIPE NCC Stationsplein 11, 1012 AB Amsterdam, The Netherlands T: +31 20 535 4444 www.ripe.net

CFP: 2nd IEEE CCNC Workshop on Future Internet Architecture (FI4D), Las Vegas, USA

https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~al773/fi4d/2017/program.html <https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~al773/fi4d/2017/program.html> Our apologies for possible cross posting. ================================================================ Call for Papers The 2nd International Workshop on Future Internet Architecture (FI4D) 2017, 8 January 2017, Las Vegas, USA Held in conjunction with IEEE CCNC 2017 https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~al773/fi4d/2017/ccnc_fi4d.html <https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~al773/fi4d/2017/ccnc_fi4d.html> ================================================================ Scope ========== Information Centric Networking (ICN) has emerged as a promising paradigm for shaping the Future Internet (FI) architectures, oriented towards the management of the massive amount of information. ICN moves from the host-centric to the information-centric networking to decouple the delivery of contents from their original locations. This new paradigm allows the fetching and pre-fetching of contents and services from virtually everywhere, including pushing the information closer to the end user. The latter aspect allows optimizing bandwidth utilization and improving the service availability, especially in challenged network environments. Particular ICN aspects that facilitate such optimization are, among others, the support for in-network caching and the convenient naming of content. While these characteristics only create temporary relationships between content providers and consumers or foster the potential to utilize multipath communication and supporting multicast delivery (due to the spatial and temporary decoupling of publishers and subscribers). One benefit from this optimization is to provide a unified framework to integrate constrained-resourced edge networks (e.g., Internet of Things) and high capacity core networks. In most developing regions, residential Internet access is considerably less affordable due to the experienced income levels. People living in rural communities of these regions either suffer from lacking of Internet access or poor Internet connectivity. These conditions have led to a limited opportunity for rural communities to connect to the world and has significantly caused a digital divide. The advantages offered by ICN along with wireless access and distribution technologies (TV White Spaces, satellite communications or Wi-Fi based long distance networks) introduce potential to improve the Internet connectivity in developing regions aiming at minimizing the cost of Internet deployment and potentially allowing commodity hardware to be an alternative. Furthermore, the recent rising of localized communication approaches, e.g., community networks and do-it-yourself networking (DIY) also bring benefits on providing a low-cost solution for network deployment. With the efficient content delivery in ICN and low-cost, practical solutions, these capabilities will leverage affordable broadband Internet for the developing regions. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * ICN architecture design and evaluation * ICN integration with current IP-based services * Use of wireless access technologies for development such as TV White Spaces, satellite communications or Wi-Fi based long distance networks * Caching technologies * ICN integration with Alternative Network Deployments * Integrated Internet of Things and ICN solutions for the developing world * Privacy, security and trust for Future Internet architectures * Localized communication networks and edge computing * Applications and services for developing regions * Future Internet economics and business models * Deployment and trial experiences of ICN systems Important Dates ========================= Submission Deadline: September 7, 2016 Notification: October 12, 2016 Camera Ready: November 2, 2016 Organising Committee ========================= Andrés Arcia-Moret (University of Cambridge, UK) Adisorn Lertsinsrubtavee (University of Cambridge, UK) Marco Zennaro, ICTP, Italy Technical Program Committee ========================= Antoine Bagula, University of Western Cape, South Africa Bjorn Pehrson, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and University of Bergen, Sweden Carles Gomez, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Spain Carlos Molina-Jimenez, University of Cambridge, UK David Jonhson, Networks and Media group, University of Cape Town, South Africa Ermanno Pietrosemoli, Marconi Lab, ICTP, Italy Gareth Tyson, Queen Mary University of London, UK Ioannis Komnios, Internetworked Systems Lab, Greece Jorg Ott, Technical University of Munich, Germany Jose Aguilar, University of Los Andes, Venezuela Jose Saldana, University of Zaragoza, Spain Junaid Qadir, Information Technology University (ITU), Pakistan Marica Amadeo, Mediterranean University of Reggio Calabria, Italy Miguel Elias Mitre Campista, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Raluca Diaconu, University of Cambridge, UK Sandor Markon, Kobe Institute of Computing, Graduate School of Information Technology, Japan Thomas Silverston, Université de Lorraine INRIA / LORIA / Madynes, France Tuan-Minh Pham, Hanoi National University of Education, Vietnam - A/A/
