SPEAR Lab Hosts TMA 2026 in Delft

TU Delft hosted the 10th Network Traffic Measurement and Analysis Conference (TMA) 2026 from June 29 to July 2 in Delft, bringing the measurement community together for a PhD School and three days of talks.

That's a wrap on TMA 2026! From June 29 to July 2, TU Delft hosted the 10th edition of the Network Traffic Measurement and Analysis Conference in Delft, Netherlands. Together with my co-general-chair Fernando Kuipers, we welcomed the measurement community for a week full of measurement research, discussion, and (plenty of) Dutch sunshine. TMA is the premier venue for researchers and practitioners working on Internet measurement, traffic analysis, and network characterization, and it was a privilege to bring the community to Delft for its anniversary edition.

The week opened with a two-day PhD School, chaired by Tanya Shreedhar and Matteo Boffa, packed with hands-on sessions and tutorials led by industry experts from Cloudflare, IPinfo, RIPE NCC, and RISE Research Institutes of Sweden. It gave students a chance to get their hands dirty with real measurement data and tooling before diving into the main program.

The main conference featured four outstanding keynotes: Adrian Perrig on the SCION Internet architecture, Hamed Haddadi on private analytics, Vasileios Giotsas on assessing shared IP addresses, and Anna Brunstrom on wireless network measurement from 5G to satellite. Across the sessions we recognized the best of the community's work with a Best Paper Award and a Community Contribution Award.

None of this would have been possible without our sponsors and supporters. Our thanks go to Gold sponsors Internet Society, Comcast, IPinfo, and ICANN, along with our Silver and Bronze sponsors, and to IFIP TC6, IEEE ComSoc, and ACM SIGCOMM for their technical support.

Huge thanks to everyone who made the trip to Delft — we hope the connections you made here turn into lasting memories, friendships, and collaborations. See you at TMA 2027!
