Authors should only submit original work that has not been published before and is not under submission to any other venue. We will consider full paper submissions that extend previously published short, preliminary papers (including IMC short papers) following
the model of the ACM SIGCOMM policy (<a href="http://www.sigcomm.org/about/policies/frequently-asked-questions-faq">http://www.sigcomm.org/about/policies/frequently-asked-questions-faq</a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Ethical standards for measurement must be considered by all authors. In particular, authors must conform to acceptable use policies for domains that are probed or monitored, data privacy and anonymity for all personally
identifiable information (PII) and etiquette for using shared measurement data. (See
<a href="http://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2007/papers/imc80.pdf">Allman and Paxson, IMC '07</a>.) If applicable, authors are also urged to notify parties of security flaws in their products or services in advance of publication. Adherence to ethical standards
for measurement will be a criterion for all submissions, and any violations---including ambiguous situations not well described---will be grounds for rejection<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>

by the authors to the reviews. For reference, see the IMC 2011 program, where review summaries appear towards the end of each paper. The main goal of this exercise is to make review process more transparent by making public the PC’s rationale for accepting
the paper, the main concerns of the reviewers, and the authors’ response to those concerns.

contributes a novel dataset to the community. To be eligible for this award, the authors must make their dataset publicly available (e.g., through
<a href="http://crawdad.cs.dartmouth.edu/">CRAWDAD</a> for wireless data) by the time of camera ready submission.
