Call for Papers Fourth International Workshop on Advanced Internet Charging and QoS Technologies (ICQT04) "QoS has its Price"
co-located with the Fifth International Workshop on Quality of future Internet Services (QofIS04)
September 29 - October 1, 2004 Barcelona, Catalunya, Spain ICQT04 URL: http://www.ftw.at/icqt
Scope ^^^^^ The current shift of Internet communications towards differentiated services enables and supports a huge variety of prosperous business models. The resulting combination of support service issues with technological and economic perspectives drives many relevant and interesting research topics for application developers, business architects, network providers, service providers, and customers. Especially the identification of novel Internet charging solutions, the investigation and evaluation of their technical feasibility, and the consolidation of technical and economic mechanisms for enabling a fast, guaranteed, and efficient charging of communications services is of fundamental importance for the future evolution of the Internet, and as such the central focus of the international ICQT workshop series.
ICQT04 is the fourth event in this series, following the highly successful workshops ICQT01 in Vienna (Austria), ICQT02 in Zurich (Switzerland) and ICQT03 in Munich (Germany). The focus of this years workshop is on the economics of Internet services, pricing for Quality-of-Service (QoS), and the required technology in support of charging. Besides charging technology in terms of monitoring, accounting, and security mechanisms, also pricing and charging models for peer-to-peer applications, multicast, wireless, and QoS services are of importance. Therefore, authors are invited to submit work on issues related to, but not limited by, the following list of topics:
o Network economics and economic models for the Internet o Internet pricing, tariffing, and billing o Internet charging technologies o Monitoring, measuring, and accounting o ISP cost and business models o Charging for QoS, services, and content o Pricing mobile and wireless services o Application service provider models o Security mechanisms for charging o Management of Service Level Agreements
