CONFERENCE INFORMATION
The eighth Passive and Active Measurement conference will be held April 5-6, 2007 in Louvain-la-neuve Belgium. This event focuses on research and practical applications of network measurement and analysis techniques. The conference's goal is to provide a forum for current work in its early stages. Original papers are invited from the research and operations communities on topics including, but not limited to:

The PAM steering committee believes that releasing measurement data allows for better science to be conducted in the field of network measurement. Therefore, an award will be given at PAM 2007 for the best paper based on a new dataset that the authors are releasing for community use in subsequent research. To qualify, a paper must significantly utilize a dataset that has been collected for the work presented in the paper. Further, the dataset must be freely available to any researcher; wireless data sets may, for instance, be published through CRAWDAD. Authors should flag papers they wish to be considered for this award with a footnote on the first page of the paper. Novel datasets are especially encouraged. The awarded paper will be chosen from the set of qualifying papers accepted for the conference by a committee made up of a subset of the program and steering committees.

SUBMISSION INFORMATION
To ensure PAM 2007 is fresh and interesting, we are soliciting papers, submitted in the Springer LNCS format, that do not exceed 10 pages. No additional space will be given once a paper has been accepted. Formatting guidelines will be available soon. Authors are, as always, asked to refrain from submitting papers submitted to PAM to other venues during the reviewing period.
