<div>benefit of the Asia Pacific community may be eligible for financial </div>
<div>support in the following categories:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>APNIC Internet Operations Research Grants</div>
<div>-----------------------------------------</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The aim of the APNIC Internet Operations Research Grants is to support </div>
<div>the development of a research community focused on improving the </div>
<div>availability, reliability, and security of the Internet in the Asia </div>
<div>Pacific.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The grants are open to researchers working on Internet operations, </div>
<div>infrastructure and related protocols in areas such as:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> - Network measurement and analysis</div>
<div> - IPv6 deployment</div>
<div> - BGP routing</div>
<div> - Network security</div>
<div> - Peering and interconnection</div>
<div><br>
</div>

<div>development institutions and non-government organizations will be </div>
<div>considered, with members of Network Operator Groups (NOGs), IXPs, root </div>
<div>server operators, academics, and post-graduate students particularly </div>
<div>encouraged to apply.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Applicants can apply for funding between AUD 5,000 to AUD 45,000 based </div>
<div>on research needs, a realistic timeframe, and a detailed budget. </div>

<div>resiliency and security of the Internet’s naming and routing functions, </div>
<div>through innovative approaches to Domain Name Security Extensions </div>
<div>(DNSSEC), RPKI and BGP. These approaches should enhance user confidence </div>
<div>in Internet-based services and options for the deployment of secure </div>
<div>routing standards.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Strong emphasis is placed on documenting impacts and sharing knowledge </div>
<div>through papers, videos, and associated communication materials.</div>
