SPECTS 2004
International Symposium on Performance Evaluation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems
July 25-29, 2004 San Jose, California San Jose Hyatt
Sponsored by The Society for Modeling and Simulation International
http://www.scs.org/confernc/ssimc/ssimc04/cfp/spects04.htm =====> PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS <===== ******************************************************************
SCOPE: ====== This annual international conference is a forum for professionals involved in performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication systems. Evaluation of computer systems and networks is needed at every stage in the life cycle of the product including design, manufacturing, sales/purchase, use, upgrade, tuning, etc. The discipline of performance evaluation has progressed rapidly in the past decade, and it has now begun to approach maturity. Significant progress has been made in analytic modeling, simulation, and measurement approaches for performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication systems.
