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 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 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
- Web services 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.
