---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - QOSIM -

First International Workshop on the Evaluation of Quality of Service through Simulation in the Future Internet Marseille, France, March 3, 2008 http://www.qosim.org - info@qosim.org

Held in conjunction with SIMUTools 2008, http://www.simutools.org

In Cooperation with ACM SIGSIM Technical Sponsors: ICST, Create-Net, IEEE France Section, INRIA and SCS. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

CALL FOR PAPERS: 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. 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), following the instructions available on the workshop 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 (approval pending). Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be considered for a journal special issue. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Emerging access technologies (WiMax, 3.5G and beyond, 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 and multi-domain networks. - Fluid-flow simulation for assessing QoS in large scale networks. - New and emerging services and applications. - QoS negotiation, 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.
