Call For Papers2005 International Symposium on Performance Evaluation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems (SPECTS'05)Due to numerous requests, the organizing committee of SPECTS'05, has decided to extended the submission deadline to March 15, 2005. This will be a firm deadline.This annual international conference is a forum for professionals involved in performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication systems. Evaluation of computer systems and networks is needed at every stage in the life cycle of the product including design, manufacturing, sales/purchase, use, upgrade, tuning, etc. The discipline of performance evaluation has progressed rapidly in the past decade, and it has now begun to approach maturity. Significant progress has been made in analytic modeling, simulation, and measurement approaches for performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication systems. The list of topics includes (but is not limited to): Networking and Telecommunication Systems
Computer Systems
Tools, Methodologies and Applications
2005 Workshop on Performance of Wireless Networks and Communication Systems (WiNCS'05)
TutorialsThe organizing committee is seeking high quality tutorials in the areas related to one or more of the conference themes listed above. Tutorial Proposal SubmissionThe proposal must contain:
