Objetive


The Annual ISOC.PT ANRW Prize is an initiative of the Portuguese Chapter of the Internet Society (ISOC.PT) that aims to promote applied research in computer networks and Internet in Portugal. The initiative will acknowledge in each year distinguishing applied research work carried out in Portugal by members of the R&D community, from Portuguese Universities, Research Centres or Industrial R&D Labs. The selected contributions should have an international level and an acknowledge potential to contribute to IETF / IRTF activities, e.g., for potential incorporation into IETF drafts or RFCs, or as relevant recognised contributions from the Portuguese R&D community, in the field.

The ANRW Prize goals are closely aligned with those of the annual ACM/IRTF ANRW Applied Network Research Workshop.

The ISOC.PT prize consists of financial support for one person to attend the annual IETF session co-located with the International Applied Network Research Workshop. In addition, members of the award’s scientific committee will provide support for the nominated and awarded work to be disseminated and proposed as a possible invited talk or short paper accepted for presentation in the IRTF ANRW. The next ACM/IRTF ANRW (2020 edition) will take place in Madrid on 27/Jul/2020, co-located wit the IETF Meeting 108 (from 25 to 31 July 2020).

The award’s scientific committee, which aims to select the best proposals in submitted papers, is made up of a group of members from the academic community and researchers from the industry, as scientific community members with conducting work and contributions in applied research in networks and Internet, many of them long-time ISOC associated members. Members of the ISOC.PT organizing and program committees are also available to encourage and support the participation of contestants in the prize. 

The prize will be awarded at a public session. For this session, ISOC.PT will organize a workshop agenda with invited speakers and public presentation of talks by the authors of the nominated papers, including the awarded work.

The competing papers must have the format of a summary research statement, with 6 pages in the format of the ANRW’s short papers. Papers must be written in English, may include results already obtained, as well as envisaged future work directions , and may also include extracts and relevant results from previously published work.

The only compromise of the authors, if their submission is among the three best works, is to be available to present their work in a talk, in the public award session. Copyrights of proposed works belong to the authors, and the papers will not be published, so the authors are free to publish the related contributions later, in any conference venue, when and if they wish. The best work should lead to a talk or a short paper proposal to the International ACM/IRTF ANRW, on the same year.
