-----------------------------------------------------------------
SCOPE AND TOPICS

The ACM SIGMETRICS conference solicits papers on the development
and application of analytic, simulation, and measurement-based
evaluation techniques. Of particular interest is research that
furthers the state-of-the-art in evaluation methods or that
creatively applies existing methods to investigate key design
tradeoffs in computer or network systems. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

Methodologically-oriented design and evaluation studies of
* Network architectures, protocols, and algorithms
* Wireless, mobile, ad-hoc, and sensor networks
* Computer architectures, memory systems, and storage systems
* Operating systems, file systems, and databases
* Virtualization
* Distributed and cloud computing
* Social networks, Internet servers, multimedia systems, and web services
* Energy efficient computing systems
* Emerging technologies
* Mobile and personal computing systems
* Real-time systems, fault-tolerant systems, and language systems
* Security systems, network attacks
* Large-scale operational systems

Methodologies, evaluation techniques and algorithms for
* Performance, power, and reliability analysis
* Capacity planning, resource allocation, scheduling, QoS, and pricing
* Anomaly detection
* Analytic modeling, model verification, and validation
* System measurement, monitoring, and forecasting
* Workload characterization and benchmarking
* Design of experiments
* Statistical analysis, simulation, and signal processing
* Stochastic modeling, random graph models, and stochastic analysis
* Control, probability, optimization, queueing, and system dynamics

-----------------------------------------------------------------
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Papers should not exceed 12 pages, double column, including
figures, tables, and references in the standard ACM format.
Papers must be submitted electronically in printable PDF. For
detailed, up-to-date submission instructions, refer to the
conference web site. No changes to margins, spacing, or font
sizes are allowed from those specified by the style file. Papers
violating the formatting guidelines will be returned without
review. 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,
authors' names and affiliations should not appear in the paper;
bibliographic references should be made in such a way as to
preserve author anonymity. A limited number of submitted papers
will be accepted for a poster session.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
WORKSHOPS and TUTORIALS

Workshops will take place before the main conference. Send
proposals of no more than 1-2 pages, in printable PDF, for half-
day or full-day workshops to the Workshops/Tutorials Chair
(bianca@cs.toronto.edu). Include the proposed title, brief
description of topics, intended audience, and membership of
workshop organizing committee.

A series of tutorials will immediately precede the main
conference. Send proposals of no more than 1-2 pages, in
printable PDF, for 90 or 180 minute tutorials to the
Workshops/Tutorials Chair (bianca@cs.toronto.edu). Include the
proposed title, brief description of material, intended audience,
assumed background of attendees, and name, affiliation, contact
information (email & phone), and brief biography of speaker(s).
