I'm 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.
