> The ACM and IRTF Applied Networking Research Workshop 2019 (ANRW ’19) is an academic workshop that provides a forum for researchers, vendors, network operators, and the Internet standards community to present and discuss emerging results in applied networking research. The workshop offers an opportunity for academics to transition research back into IETF standards and protocols and to find inspiration from topics and open problems discussed at the IETF. The workshop will consist of a mix of invited talks, submitted talks, and submitted short papers.
> 
> Submitted talks are not-for-publication resubmissions of works that have been published elsewhere during the last 12 months. The goal here is to increase impact of previously published work. For a talk to be considered for presentation, please submit an extended abstract that is no longer than 2 pages.
> Short papers are publications that present new research that has not been previously published. For a short paper to be considered for publication, please submit work describing early/emerging results in a relevant topic area. There is a 6-page limit for short papers.

> ANRW ’19 particularly encourages the submission of results that could form the basis for future engineering work in the IETF, that could help better specify Internet protocols, that could change operational Internet practices, or that could influence further research and experimentation in the IRTF. ANRW ‘19 is sponsored by ACM SIGCOMM, and the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF).

> Talk submissions are not-for-publication resubmissions of works that have been published elsewhere during the last 12 months. They may contain up to two pages of technical content, including figures, tables, appendices, optionally followed by unlimited additional pages for references and acknowledgements only. The two page limit is strictly enforced, even a single line exceeding two pages will lead to rejection without review. We expect talk submissions to describe the research at a high enough level to assess whether a talk on the topic would be suitable for the audience. Authors may also optionally attach the published paper or technical report backing the submission; this attachment is for reference only and may not be reviewed.

They may contain up to six pages of content including figures, tables, and any appendices, optionally followed by a unlimited additional pages for references and acknowledgments only.

An accepted paper that is published also must not plagiarize the work of its authors or of any other authors. The ACM Policy and Procedures on Plagiarism applies to the ANRW, and action will be taken against submitters who have engaged in such practices.

If you are using LaTeX, you can make use of this template for ACM conference proceedings. Unlike the official template, it only includes an example for conference proceedings. Note that you must change from the default 9-point format to 10-point text.
