[Air-L] ACM Internet Measurement Conference 2023, October 24-26, 2023, Montreal, Canada, Paper Submission Deadline: May 26, 2023

Tue May 9 23:33:27 PDT 2023

Thanks Eirini,

I note that videos of last year's presentations are available at
https://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2022/program/ and that remote
participation was available via Blue Button.
