Internet Research Task Force (IRTF)

We're pleased to announce that the winners of the 2024 Applied Networking Research Prize (ANRP) are Sawsan El Zahr, Dongqi Han, Harjasleen Malvai, Yevheniya Nosyk, Mingshi Wu, and Xieyang Xu. The ANRP is awarded to recognise the best recent results in applied networking, interesting new research ideas of potential relevance to the Internet standards community, and upcoming people that are likely to have an impact on Internet standards and technologies, with a particular focus on cases where these people or ideas would not otherwise get much exposure or be able to participate in the discussion. Congratulations to all the awardees! Look out for their award talks and presentations in the IRTF Open Meetings, co-located with the IETF meeting during 2024.

Nominations for the Applied Networking Research Prize (ANRP) 2024 are now being accepted. Information and details of how to nominate can be found at https://www.irtf.org/anrp The ANRP is awarded to recognise the best recent results in applied networking, interesting new research ideas of potential relevance to the Internet standards community, and upcoming people that are likely to have an impact on Internet standards and technologies, with a particular focus on cases where these people or ideas would not otherwise get much exposure or be able to participate in the discussion. We encourage nominations of researchers with relevant research results, interesting ideas, and new perspectives. The award provides a cash prize and will offer them the opportunity to present and discuss their work with the engineers, network operators, policy makers, and scientists that participate in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and its research arm, the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF). Both self- and third-party nominations for this prize are encouraged. More information at https://www.irtf.org/anrp

The Applied Networking Research Prize (ANRP) awards for #IETF 118 will go to: Siva Kesava Reddy Kakarla for his work on verifying the correctness of nameservers ("SCALE: Automatically Finding RFC Compliance Bugs in DNS Nameservers", NSDI 2022) Dennis Trautwein for his work on content-addressable peer-to-peer storage ("Design and Evaluation of IPFS: A Storage Layer for the Decentralized Web", ACM SIGCOMM 2022) Ram Sundara Raman for his work on identifying and locating in-network censorship devices ("Network Measurement Methods for Locating and Examining Censorship Devices", ACM CoNEXT 2022) Look out for their talks during the IRTF Open Meeting at IETF 118 in Prague in November, and online.
