    International Conference on Measurement and Modeling of Computer Systems
                        Sponsored by ACM SIGMETRICS
  
                     June 12-16, 2007, San Diego, California

  The ACM SIGMETRICS conference solicits papers on the development and
  application of state-of-the-art, broadly-applicable analytic, simulation,
  and measurement-based performance evaluation techniques. Of particular
  interest is work that furthers the state-of-the-art in performance
  evaluation methods, or those that creatively apply previously developed
  methods to understand or to gain important insights into key design
  trade-offs in complex computer or communication systems. Topics of interest
  include, but are not limited to:
  
      * Performance-oriented design and evaluation studies of: communication
   networks, internet servers, computer architectures, database systems,
   operating systems, distributed systems, multimedia systems, file
   and I/O systems, memory systems, real-time systems, and fault-tolerant
   systems.
         
      * Performance methodology techniques and algorithms for: analytic
   modeling, system measurement and monitoring, model verification
   and validation, workload characterization, simulation, statistical
   analysis, stochastic modeling, experimental design, reliability
   analysis, performance optimization, and hybrid models. 
  
  
  IMPORTANT DATES
   October 27, 2006  Abstract registration
   November 3, 2006  Submission of papers,
                     hot topics, workshop and
                     tutorial proposals
   February 5, 2007  Notification of acceptance
   June 12-16, 2007  Conference held in San Diego, CA
  
  
  SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
  
      * Papers: Papers should not exceed 12 pages double column including
   figures and tables in standard ACM format. Papers must be submitted
   electronically in printable postscript or pdf form; for detailed
   submission instructions, refer to the conference web site. All
   submissions will be reviewed using a double-blind review process.

   The identity of authors and referees will not be revealed to each
   other. To ensure blind reviewing, author names and affiliations
   should not appear in the paper; bibliographic references should
   be made in such a way as to preserve author anonymity.
  
   Warning: It is ACM policy not to allow double submissions, where
   the same paper is submitted to more than one conference/journal
   concurrently.  Any double submissions detected will be immediately
   rejected from all conferences/journals involved.
         
      * Hot Topic Sessions: Proposals are solicited for a hot topic session,
   in which a group of speakers will present and discuss their recent
   results in an area. Send proposals to the program chairs, identifying
   the organizer of the session, the session title, three to five
   speakers, and the title and short abstract of each talk.
         
      * Workshops: One or more workshops will immediately precede the
   conference. Send proposals of no more than 1-2 pages to the
   general chair. Include the proposed title, brief description
   of topics, intended audience, and membership of workshop organizing
   committee. Proposals must be submitted electronically in printable
   postscript, pdf, or plain text.  
  
      * Tutorials: A series of tutorials will immediately precede the
   conference. Send proposals of no more than 1-2 pages for 90
   minute or 3 hours tutorials to the tutorial chair. Include the
   proposed title, brief description of material, intended audience,
   assumed background of attendees, and the name, affiliation,
   contact information (email & phone) and brief biography of
   speaker(s). Proposals must be submitted electronically in
   printable postscript, pdf, or plain text.
