1st IEEE Workshop on Performance Evaluation of Communications in
Distributed Systems and Web based Service Architectures
Sousse, Tunisia, July 5 - 8, 2009
In conjunction with the 14th IEEE Symposium on Computers
and Communications (IEEE ISCC'09)

Paper submission deadline: *Febrary 1st, 2009*

*Scope*
Performance evaluation is still a topic that attains a lot of attention in
both distributed
and mobile systems as well as Web based services architectures.
Due to the recent advances in internet based applications as well as
distributed and
mobile communication systems, we are witnessing a variety of new
technologies.
However, these systems are becoming very large and complex at the same time.
Several challenges remain to be resolved before these systems become a
commodity.
Guaranteeing QoS and provisioning of web-based systems as well as
distributed
and mobile systems and evaluating their communication performance represent
among the challenging problem in the design of these systems.
Quantitative analysis can be very difficult and may be intractable because
of the state space explosion. New methods and tools have
recently emerged for these kinds of complex systems, such as
Stochastic Automata Networks, Stochastic bounds, PEPA, just to mention a
few.
This workshop focuses 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 previously published elsewhere nor
currently
under review in any another conference or journal.

*Topics of interest include but are not limited to: *
· Communication performance evaluation of distributed and mobile systems
· Performance evaluation of distributed and web-based systems
· Measurement, analysis, modeling
· Tools and software for performance evaluation
· Simulation and measurements techniques
· QoS for Web services architectures
· Services Web composition
· Quantitative analysis
· Stochastic comparisons
· Network Protocols design for Web service devices
· Routing optimization
· Bandwidth management
This workshop focuses upon the QoS and communication performance analysis,
methods
and modeling of distributed systems and Web based services architectures.
