ITC Rising Scholar Award
The International Advisory Council (IAC) of the ITC decided to set up a new award: the ITC Rising Scholar Award. The goal of the ITC Rising Scholar Award is to recognize young researchers with significant contributions to the ITC Community in the field of performance, traffic modeling and control in communication networks and networking science.
There is an open call for nominations. More information on the call for nomination: https://itc-conference.org/awards/rising-scholar-award.html
