VALUETOOLS 2008
3rd International Conference on Performance Evaluation Methodologies and Tools
October 20-24, 2008, Athens, Greece
In cooperation with ACM (technical sponsorship pending)
In recent years, a range of performance evaluation methodologies and tools has been developed within disparate research communities for the purposes of evaluation, design, and model reduction. The aim of the Performance Evaluation Methodologies and Tools conference is to build bridges between these communities, bringing theory and practice together in order to:
- compare and debate the complete range of performance evaluation methodologies and their implementation into tools
- promote interdisciplinary flow of technical information among industry systems designers and researchers.
Performance Evaluation Techniques will be drawn from the following:
- Advanced Simulation Tools (Simulation of Rare Events, Parallel/Distributed Simulation, Variance reduction techniques, Large deviations, Hybrid System simulation)
- Stochastic Processes (Stochastic geometry, Long-range dependence, Self-similarity, Point processes, Traffic models and measurements)
- Discrete Event Systems (Petri Nets, Max-plus algebra, Automata)
- Queuing Theory (Network Calculus, Analytical Models, Approximation Methods, (In)Sensitivity, Dynamic Fluid Models, Diffusion Models, Dam Processes, Perturbation Approaches, Control of Queues)
- Optimization Theory and Control (Supervisory Control, Reliability/Performability tools)
- Neural Networks and Decision Theory
- Graph Theory and Discrete Mathematics
- Game Theory and Pricing
Envisaged Applications are drawn from, but not limited to:
- Computer Networks (Peer-to-peer Networks, Traffic Control Services)
- Computer Systems (Grid Computing)
- Communication Systems
- Wireless Networks (MAC, Routing, Cellular, Ad Hoc Sensor, and Hybrids)
- Distributed Systems
- Road Traffic and Transportation Systems
- Public Utility Networks
- Manufacturing Systems and Supply Chains
- Call Centers
- Economic, Biological, and Social Systems
Selected papers will be published in a special issue of the Performance Evaluation Journal (confirmed) and Discrete Events Dynamic Systems Journal (approval pending).
Valuetools 2008 features 5 co-located workshops (to be held on Oct 20 and 24):
- InterPerf (Workshop on interdisciplinary approaches in performance evaluation and design of Computer and Communications Systems)
- GameComm (Workshop on Game Theory for Communication Networks)
- WNS2 (Workshop on NS2)
- Network Calculus (Workshop on Network Calculus)
- SMCTools (Stochastic Markov Tools Workshop)

THEME
Combinations of mobile and ubiquitous computing are becoming increasingly
present in our daily life. Through the use of mobile devices embedded in the
surrounding physical environment, users can be provided with transparent
computing and communication services at all times and in all places. The
complexity of providing such services stems from the fact that the
communication devices and the objects with which they interact may both be
mobile. Their implementation requires advances in wireless network
technologies and devices, development of infrastructures supporting
cognitive environments, discovery and identification of ubiquitous computing
applications and services, and an understanding of the cross-layer
interactions between all of these components. The Fifth Annual International
Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and
Services (MobiQuitous 2008) will provide a forum where practitioners and
researchers coming from many areas involved in ubiquitous solutions design
and deployment will be able to interact and exchange experiences needed to
build successful ubiquitous systems. Areas addressed by the conference
include systems, applications, service-oriented computing, middleware,
networking, agents, data management and services, all with special focus on
mobility and ubiquitous computing.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not
currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited.
Technical papers clearly identifying how the specific contributions fit to an
overall working system are particularly of interest. Topics include, but are
not limited to, the following:
- Ubiquitous architectures, systems and applications
- Wearable computing and personal area networks
- Wireless technologies (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi, WiMAX)
- Wireless Internet access in ubiquitous systems
- Ad hoc and sensor network support for ubiquitous computing
- Reconfigurability and personalization of wireless networks
- Wireless/mobile service management and delivery
- Security, privacy and social issues of mobile and ubiquitous systems
- Service and knowledge discovery, matching and composition mechanisms
- Location-based services and tracking in ubiquitous environments
- Context- and location-aware applications
- Agent technologies in ubiquitous, wearable, and mobile systems
- Context modeling, services and frameworks
- Toolkits, testbeds, development environments, and languages for ubiquitous
computing
- Rapid prototyping of ubiquitous applications
- Ontologies for mobile and ubiquitous computing
- Mobile and ubiquitous data management and processing
- Data replication, migration and dissemination in ubiquitous environments
- Queries, transactions and workflows in mobile and ubiquitous environments
- Multimodal interfaces (speech, video kinetic, tactile)
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Paper submission will be handled electronically (see the conference web page
for details). Authors should prepare an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of their
full paper. Papers must not exceed 10 pages double column (US Letter size,
8.5 x 11 inches) including text, figures and references. The font size must be at least 10 points.

CALL FOR PAPERS
The 1st International Workshop on Massively Multiuser Virtual
Environments (MMVE 2008)
at IEEE Virtual Reality 2008
http://peers-at-play.org/MMVE08/
March 8th, 2008
Reno, Nevada, USA
With the increasing number of potential users of virtual and augmented
reality systems, as indicated by the recent booms of massively multiuser
online societies, the design of distributed, massively multiuser virtual
environments (MMVEs) becomes increasingly important, posing new
requirements on both distribution platforms and virtual reality systems.
Facing these challenges is a community-spanning effort, necessitating
the pooling of the resources and experiences of the virtual reality and
the networking/ distributed computing communities. This workshop hopes
to provide a link between these communities to foster the development of
highly distributed, flexible and robust virtual environments. We aim to
gather the practitioners and researchers in these fields under one roof
to discuss their findings, incite collaborations, and move the state of
the art forward.
Keynote by Jon Watte (CTO, Forterra Systems)
Jon Watte will give a keynote at the workshop, in which he'll describe
some surprising places virtual worlds have been adopted; what the future
looks like; and some sketches for open research areas.
In addition to his job as CTO of serious virtual world platform company
Forterra Systems, Jon is a regular contributor to the independent game
development community. A Microsoft DirectX/XNA MVP and moderator of the
Multiplayer and Networking forum on independent games site GameDev.Net,
Jon has several published articles in the field and has spoken on the
future direction of the interoperable 3D web on several occasions. He
combines practical experience with solid theoretical underpinnings to
bring success to the field of massive-scale, interactive distributed
simulation. Prior to heading up Forterra Systems, Jon worked on products
such as There.com, BeOS, and Metrowerks CodeWarrior.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Wireless and Pervasive Communications for Healthcare
Wireless and Pervasive Communications for Healthcare, a new and growing
interdisciplinary field, calls for innovation in information and
communications technology to facilitate reliable, comprehensive, and high
quality heathcare. Advances in networking infrastructure as well as
middleware are vital to delivering telemedicine services regardless of a
patient's physical location. In-home care for elderly persons is costly and
can require sensors, wireless monitoring devices, and networking
infrastructure and middleware to automatically contact emergency services.
Healthcare is motivating unique basic research challenges in wireless and
pervasive communications due to requirements for safe signal propagation
characteristics, low network latency, low packet loss, high quality image
and video transmission, and the need for safe, secure, and dependable
operation. The goal of this issue is to report on cutting-edge research in
communications for healthcare. Basic research papers are solicited, but
papers on systems integration or deployment will also be considered. We seek
papers that describe original and unpublished contributions, and that
reflect those aspects of communications research for healthcare which are
distinctly different from communications research in general.
Possible topics include:
. New Network architectures for wireless telemedicine
. Unique wireless network research issues to support healthcare
applications
. Regionally-lossless and near-lossless coding for medical images
. Unique middleware for enabling medical applications
. Equipping ambulances with wireless and sensor networks
. E-surgery using large bandwidth connections
. Mobile and wearable technologies for next generation drug trials
. Organic Computing for Healthcare Networks
. Remote tactile sensors for remote diagnosis
. Actuators and prompters for rehabilitation and behavior
modification
. Sensors and mobile devices for continuous patient monitoring
. Cyber-physical systems for patient monitoring
. Sensor networks for hospitals, operating rooms, elderly monitoring
. Autonomic Sensor Networks for Healthcare
Prospective authors should follow the IEEE J-SAC manuscript format described
in the Information for Authors under http://www.jsac.ucsd.edu/. Authors MUST
submit their manuscripts through the EDAS peer review website.
Submission deadline: July15, 2008
Acceptance Notification: Nov 15, 2008
Final Manuscript due: Jan 15, 2009
Publication: 2nd quarter 2009
