QoSim 2009

About QoSim 2009
QoSim 2009 is the second international workshop on the Evaluation of Quality of Service through Simulation in the Future Internet. The aim of this workshop is to bring together academic and industry researchers and practitioners from both the networking and the simulation communities to discuss current and future trends in simulation techniques, models and practices for the Future Internet and to foster interdisciplinary collaborative research in this area.

sonsored by ICST/CREATE-NET In technical cooperation with ACM SIGSIM, SIGMETRICS, SCS, INRIA

TOPICS

 * Emerging access technologies (Wi-Max, 3.5G, Wireless Mesh Networks, 802.11x, etc.)
 * Disruptive network paradigms (bio-inspired, autonomic, opportunistic networking, etc.)
 * Multi-layer network architectures
 * Cross-layer simulation
 * End-to-end simulation of heterogeneous, mobile, multi-domain networks
 * Fluid-flow simulation for assessing QoS in large scale networks
 * New and emerging services and applications
 * QoS and service chain negotiation, and Service Level Agreements
 * QoS components (scheduling algorithms, admission control schemes, QoS routing and traffic engineering schemes, etc.)
 * Scalability analysis
 * Traffic modeling

SUBMISSION
We solicit submission of manuscripts presenting original research results, not previously published nor currently under review by another conference or journal. Authors are invited to submit PDF versions of full papers of up to 8 pages in ACM conference proceedings format through EasyChair: http://www.easychair.org/ (instructions available on the website).

All submitted papers will go through a rigorous peer review process.

The workshop values both theoretical and practical research contributions, which will be judged on originality, significance,interest,clarity, relevance, and correctness. Accepted papers will be available online through the ACM digital library.

Best papers, after further reviews, will be considered for publication in a special issue of Simulation: Transactions of The Society for Modeling and Simulation, International.

SPONSORSHIP
The event is organized in cooperation with the ACM Special Interest Group on Simulation (SIGSIM) and the Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS).
