Internet Visualization Exhibit (IVE) at SIGCOMM 2025

[Loqman Salamatian]

Paul Barford (University of Wisconsin–Madison) and I (Columbia University) are organizing the Internet Visualization Exhibition (IVE) as a special, non-paper session at SIGCOMM 2025. The goal is to showcase creative and insightful visualizations of Internet-scale systems — from connectivity maps and temporal changes to AS-level graphs and other innovative ways of making the Internet more understandable. Since many in the M-Lab community work with rich Internet measurement datasets, we thought this might be of interest — especially if you’ve created visualizations that reveal patterns, highlight anomalies, or explain complex behaviors in the Internet. 

We’re looking for:

• Static images, animations, or interactive demos

• Visuals that reveal structure, highlight anomalies, or explain complex behaviors

• Work that’s compelling, bold, or just visually satisfying

Submissions are lightweight: just a visual and a short description. There’s no formal review process.

Important: You don’t need to attend SIGCOMM to take part. While presenting in person is a great way to connect with others and share your work, the exhibition is open to submissions from anyone, anywhere.

Whether you’re a researcher, network operator, data-viz enthusiast, or artist working with Internet data or infrastructure, we’d love to see what you’ve been visualizing!
