====================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS
3rd International Workshop on Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization of Peer-to-peer Environments MSOP2P 2009 In conjunction with Euromicro PDP 2009 Weimar, Germany February 18-20, 2009 http://lifc.univ-fcomte.fr/~bourgeoi/msop2p2009.html http://www.pdp2009.org ====================================================================== Scope of the workshop --------------------- The algorithms and methods of Peer-to-Peer (p2p) technology are often applied to networks and services with a high demand for scalability. The huge number of peers, the state space, as well as the interactions and relationships between peers and states often makes an analytical description intractable. Discrete event simulation is a tool which is able to incorporate all interactions and parameters and may reflect reality as accurately as possible. Large scale simulations, however, also require sufficient memory capacities and often exceed the available computational power. It might already be a problem just to keep the states of the peers in the main memory. The 3rd International Workshop on Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization of Peer-to-peer environments (MSOP2P) aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government to advance the state of the art in modeling, simulating and optimizing P2P environments. The workshop also offers the opportunity to discuss different techniques to make p2p simulations scalable, to debate the advantages and disadvantages of a simulation on packet level or on application level, and to compare analytical models as well as emulations to results gained by simulation. The general venue will be a good occasion to share, to learn, and to discuss the latest results in this field of research. Topics ------ * Modeling of P2P systems * Performance evaluation of P2P systems * Simulation of P2P systems * Traffic management for P2P computing systems * Algorithms for computing and performance implications in P2P environments * Analytical modeling of Peer-to-Peer systems * Quantitative analysis of Peer-to-Peer infrastructure and overlay networks * Emulation of P2P systems * Protocols for resource management/discovery/reservation/scheduling * Workload characterization for P2P systems Important Dates --------------- Paper submission deadline: August 1, 2008 Notification of acceptance: October 15, 2008 Camera ready papers due: October 23, 2008 Conference: February 18-20, 2009 Submission Details ------------------ Prospective authors should submit a full paper not exceeding 5000 words in length and including a 150-200 word abstract. This approximately corresponds to 8 double column pages in IEEE style. To facilitate an anonymous reviewing process, the first page of the paper should contain only the title and abstract. Proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society. Authors of accepted papers are expected to register and present the paper at the Conference. Papers submitted for the workshops or special sessions must be submitted through the PDP 2009 submission system with an indication of the name of the workshop/special session. Papers must adhere to the formatting rules of the conference and will undergo the same review process as other papers submitted to the conference.
