Fourth IEEE International Workshop on Performance
Evaluation of Communications in Distributed
Systems and Web based Service Architectures
July 1-4 2012, Cappadocia, Turkey
Organized In conjunction with the seventeenth IEEE symposium
on Computers and Communications (ISCC 2012)
Performance evaluation remains a topic of significant concern in the area of
distributed and mobile systems as well as for Web-based services architectures.
With the recent advances in
Internet based applications as well as distributed and mobile communication
systems, we are witnessing the sustained emergence of various new technologies,
with new performance characterization.
Furthermore, these systems are becoming very large and complex at the same
time. Several challenges remain to be resolved before these systems can become
a commodity; typically
guaranteeing QoS and provisioning of web-based systems as well as distributed
and mobile systems and evaluating
their communication performance stand among the most challenging problems in
the design of these systems.
Quantitative analysis can be very difficult to perform, and even intractable
because of the size of the state space.
Promising new methods and tools have recently emerged for such complex systems,
such as Stochastic Automata Networks, Stochastic bounds, PEPA, just to mention
a few.
This workshop focus on the performance evaluation of both distributed and
mobile systems, as well as Web based services architectures using both
analytical methods and
simulation studies.
Authors are encouraged to submit full papers presenting new research related to
QoS and communication performance evaluation
of these systems. Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere nor
currently be under review by another conference or journal.
Topics:
PEDISWESA 2012 focus on the performance evaluation of both distributed and
mobile systems, as well as Web based services architectures using both
analytical methods and
simulation studies.
Authors are encouraged to submit full papers presenting new research related
to QoS and communication performance evaluation of these systems. Submitted
papers must not have been
published elsewhere nor currently be under review by another conference or
journal.
We solicit papers that cover a variety of topics including, but not limited
to:
• Performance evaluation of distributed and mobile systems
• Performance evaluation of distributed and web-based systems
• Measurement, analysis and modeling
• Tools and software for performance evaluation
• Simulation and measurements techniques
• QoS for Web services architectures
• Web services composition
• Quantitative analysis and Stochastic models
• Network Protocols design for Web service devices
• Routing optimization and Bandwidth management
Contribution format:
Authors are invited to submit original unpublished work, not currently under
review by another workshop,conference, or journal. Full papers should be
limited to 6 pages (in IEEE
double column format), including text, figures and references. Two additional
pages (i.e. 8 pages in total) may be
allowed but will be charged additional fees.
Authors should use only standard fonts, i.e. Times Roman, Courier, Symbol,
Helvetica or equivalent.
Papers must be submitted electronically via EDAS. All papers will be reviewed
by Technical Program Committee members and other experts active in the field to
ensure high quality and relevance to
the conference.
The authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be
presented at the conference.
At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference in
order for that paperto appear in the IEEE proceedings and to be scheduled for
presentation.
The authors of the best papers will be invited to submit a revised and
extended version of their papers after the workshop to a related special issue
of the Journal of Computational
Science, Elsevier.
