Network Traffic Measurement and Analysis Conference

Technical Sponsors: IFIP, IEEE, IEEE ComSoc, in-cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM.

Location: Vienna, Austria.

Conference Dates: June 26-29, 2018
Paper submission: February 16, February 25, 2018 – 23:59:59 PST

We are very excited to announce the second edition of the new Network Traffic Measurement and Analysis Conference (TMA 2018).

TMA Conference is a highly selective venue for the presentation of both early-stage and mature research as well as controversial work on all the aspects of network measurements. The focus is on improving the practice or application of measurements, across the entire network stack up to the application layer, with an emphasis on new areas of network communication such as Software-Defined Networks, Cloud services, Content Distribution Networks, Social Networks, mobile applications and data centers. We also welcome more traditional measurement topics, such as traffic classification, anomaly detection, network performance evaluation and traffic analysis.

The Conference maintains its tradition of open and lively interaction between scientists and engineers in academia and industry and serves as a premier forum to exchange ideas, present new results and advance the state-of-the-art.

NEW: TMA Conference 2018 will include three new events within its main program, including a full-day TMA Experts Summit (running on Tuesday the 26th), a Special Session on Hands-on Network Traffic Measurement and Analysis, and a Demo Session. The TMA Experts Summit will consist of invited talks and panels from top experts, covering hot topics linked to TMA during a full day.

TMA Conference 2018 is co-located with the traditional TMA PhD School, started back in 2010 and recognized as the most important PhD school in network measurement and analysis topics. The TMA PhD school hosts more than 40 PhD students who are interested in TMA topics, and will bring a vivid contribution to the audience. Students will present their research work in a poster session.

TMA Conference 2018 will present three different awards to the best contributions, including a best paper award, a best open dataset award and a best demo award. Awards consist of both a recognition and a certificate presented at the closing ceremony, as well as a monetary prize. Authors of selected top TMA 2018 papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their paper to IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management (Impact Factor 3.134) for fast-track processing.
