Every year, the CCR Editorial board selects the two best paper that were published during the previous year (i.e. the July 2017, October 2017, January 2018 and April 2018 issues) for presentation during the SIGCOMM conference. During SIGCOMM’18, two CCR papers will be presented :

• Inside the Walled Garden: Deconstructing Facebook’s Free Basics Program co-authored by Rijurekha Sen, Sohaib Ahmad, Amreesh Phokeer, Zaid Ahmed Farooq, Ihsan Ayyub Qazi, David Choffnes and Krishna P. Gummadi
• Towards a Rigorous Methodology for Measuring Adoption of RPKI Route Validation and Filtering co-authored by  Andreas Reuter, Randy Bush, Italo Cunha, Ethan Katz-Bassett, Thomas C. Schmidt, and Matthias Wählisch

Both papers proposed a methodology, collected measurements and released artefacts to allow other researchers to build upon and extend the paper results. A recent study shows that a growing fraction of the papers published within our community contains artefacts (software, measurements datasets, …). CCR encourages the publications of such papers by allowing them to be longer than six pages.
