Internet Computing Special Issue
Internet Workloads: Measurement, Characterization and Modeling
(Mar/Apr 2011)
Final submissions due 1 July 2010

The Internet has a number of popular applications and services experiencing workloads with very different, non-trivial and unique properties.
Examples are online social networking and Web 2.0, e-business, search, streaming, malware, Peer-to-Peer, grid, and mobile applications.
Real workload characterization and modeling provide key insights into the cost-effective design, operation, and management of Internet- based
services and systems. Nevertheless, some of the most fundamental concepts and methods related to the characteristics of real Internet workloads
are largely unknown to most Internet/Web practitioners. This is further aggravated by the limited availability of real representative workloads
for analysis, either due to privacy restrictions imposed by service providers or due to the inherent limitations of partial/local workloads in face
of the global nature of Internet applications. As a result, many Internet-based systems and services are designed and built without exploring the
inherent properties of their workloads.
This special issue of IC seeks original articles addressing relevant aspects of real Internet workloads, looking at measurement and
collection of workloads, characterization and modeling. Articles can be from research, operations, management, or architecture viewpoints.
Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
workload sampling and measurement techniques; workload characterization techniques and results; workload modeling approaches; strategies to achieve representativeness under partial workloads; privacy preserving issues; synthetic workload generators; workload temporal evolution and prediction schemes; and case studies. _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc@lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc
