eligible faculty members/researchers from all across the globe.
 Support for SIGCOMM 2010 has been provided from the following

graduate students. Support will also extend to a limited number of US-based
postdoctoral scholars.

partner institutions<http://euronf.enst.fr/p_en_menu1_NFcommunit_396.html>.
To qualify, a student must be a member of the Euro-NF team in a
participating university and/or research center at the time of application.
3.       ACM Sigcomm GeoDiversity travel grants are available for attendees
in their early career (at most five years of full-time, full-level,
non-postdoc, post-PhD employment) from under-represented countries, based on
need, distance to the conference venue, and impact of their attendance in
increasing the diversity of conference participation.
4.       We are working on government support specifically for Indian
students and researchers to attend Sigcomm. This includes PhD students,
faculty and researchers at all universities in India.
