VALUETOOLS 2009
Fourth International Conference
on Performance Evaluation Methodologies and Tools
October 20-22, 2009 - Pisa, Italy
Call for Workshops
----------------------
VALUETOOLS 2009 is the Fourth International Conference on Performance
Evaluation Methodologies and Tools. This edition will build on the success
of the previous editions. The aim of the conference is to bring academic
and industry researchers together with practitioners from both the
performance evaluation community and from the numerous communities who
develop interesting performance evaluation problems. The conference will
address current and future trends in performance evaluation techniques,
practices, tools and applications and foster interdisciplinary collaborative
research in this area.
We invite proposals for one-day workshops on new and emerging topics in
performance evaluation techniques, to be held in conjunction with the main
conference. The specific methods or targeted application domain might
complement the ones of the main conference. Workshop organizers can invite
special talks, while regular papers should undergo a peer-review process.
Typically, each workshop will be composed of around 10 papers. Workshop
organizers manage the paper submission and review process, and submit the
camera-ready papers before the due date. The workshop papers will be
published together with regular papers in the conference proceedings.
Proposal Preparation
---------------------
A formal workshop proposal should be at most two pages and include the
following information:
- Title of the proposed workshop (full name and short name)

brief biography)
