******** NSTOOLS 2007 ********* **** Call for Papers ****

International Workshop on Network Simulation Tools Nantes, France / October 22, 2007 http://www.nstools.org/

**** Submission Deadline -- April 30, 2006 ****

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The Network Simulation Tools Workshop (NSTools) is a one-day event held in conjunction with the Second International Conference on Performance Evaluation Methodologies and Tools (VALUETOOLS'07), which will be held in Nantes, France, on October 22, 2007.

** All accepted papers will be made available in the ** ** Association for Computing Machinery Digital Library **

---------------------------------------------------------------------

** SCOPE **

Simulation tools are widely used within the Networking community to simulate packet-switched networks and perform a large number of wildly different tasks: they are often used in the industry and within both academic and educational settings to design and evaluate new and existing protocols and architectures.

The aim of the Network Simulation Tools workshop is thus to bring together academic and industry researchers from both the Networking and the Simulation communities to discuss current and future trends in network simulation and to foster interdisciplinary collaborative research in this area.

** PAPERS **

This workshop does not focus on network research results based on the use of simulation tools: we are looking for original contributions on the design and the use of the tools themselves. The following topics are of particular interest.

Development of new simulation environments:

- parallel and distributed simulations - real-time simulation of networks within the setting of a larger real network testbed - integration of real-world network applications in conventional simulation tools - textual and graphical post-processing analysis tools - large-scale network simulations - simulation accuracy evaluations

Development of new simulation models especially in, but not restricted to, the areas of:

- Wireless and mobile networks: 3/4G, 802.11, 802.16/WiMAX, etc., - Peer to peer systems, - Sensor networks, and, - Delay-tolerant networking,

** IMPORTANT DATES **

Full Papers due: April 30, 2007 Notification of Acceptance: June 20, 2007 Camera-ready Manuscripts due: July 20, 2207 Conference Date: October 22, 2007

** SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS **

Conference language is English. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a PDF version of the full paper in the ACM conference proceedings format, which are limited to 10 two-column pages in a font no smaller than 10-points. Paper submission will be handled electronically through Cocus (http://cocus.info/).

** PUBLICATION **

All submitted papers will go through a peer review process. All accepted papers will be made available in Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Digital Library.
