The Passive and Active Measurement (PAM) conference brings together researchers and operators to discuss novel and emerging work in the area of network measurement and analysis. PAM is inclusive of all areas of network measurement, but focuses on systems-based research and real-world data. Indeed, measurement technology is needed at all layers of the network stack, ranging from power profiling of hardware components to virtualization in data centers to application profiling and even user experience. Work with operational impact or relevance to the broader network research community is especially welcome, as is early and promising measurement technique. Original contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in the following areas are invited:

- Applications, e.g., web, streaming, games
- Data centers and cloud computing
- Energy
- IoT, e.g., SCADA, ICS, and embedded systems
- Measurement tools and software
- Network security and privacy
- Overlays, e.g., P2P, CDNs
- Physical Layer
- Routing
- Social networks
- Topology
- Transport/congestion control
- User behavior and experience, QoE
- Virtualization, e.g., SDN, NFV
- Visualization
- Wireless and mobile

Although PAM traditionally attracts early stage contributions, works that are a reappraisal or independent validation of previous results, or which enhance the reproducibility of network measurement research, for instance by publishing new datasets on an existing topic, are explicitly included in PAM's scope.
