PERFORMANCE 2007

The 26th IFIP WG 7.3 International Symposium on Computer
Performance Modeling, Measurement, and Evaluation

October 2-5, 2007
Cologne, Germany

http://rvs.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/performance2007/

Sponsored by IFIP WG 7.3 and the Computer Performance Foundation

The PERFORMANCE 2007 conference solicits papers on the
development and application of state-of-the-art analytic,
simulation, and measurement-based performance evaluation
techniques.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Performance-oriented design and evaluation of:
communication networks, mobile and wireless systems,
Internet servers and E-commerce systems, Web services,
Web architectures, peer-to-peer systems, grid computing,
computer architectures, database systems, operating
systems, software systems, distributed systems,
multimedia systems, file and I/O systems, memory
systems, real-time systems, and fault-tolerant systems.

* Techniques and algorithms: analytic modeling, performance
optimization, queueing analysis, stochastic scheduling,
model verification and validation, power analysis, hybrid
models, experimental design, system or network measurement
and monitoring, workload characterization, simulation,
and statistical analysis.

In addition to its traditional focus, this year we encourage
submissions focusing on implementation and experimental issues.

** SUBMISSION GUIDELINES **

PAPERS: Papers should not exceed 22 double-spaced pages
including figures, tables, and references. PERFORMANCE 2007
does not use a double-blind review process. Authors should
include their last names and affiliations on their papers.
A limited number of submitted papers will be accepted for a
poster session. Submissions must be made electronically as
Adobe PDF files through the Conference Web site
http://rvs.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/performance2007/
In case of problems, please send papers by email to
papers.perf2007@tlc.polito.it . Papers will be selected
on the basis of their originality, technical standards,
relevance, and clarity.

The conference has traditionally published accepted papers in a
special issue of a journal rather than a conference proceedings.
PERFORMANCE 2007 will continue this tradition. All accepted full
papers will be published in a special issue of the Performance
Evaluation Journal (Elsevier) and will be made available at the
conference.

TUTORIAL SESSIONS: Tutorial proposals, not exceeding 3 pages,
have to include title, abstract, duration (1hr 30min or 3hrs),
intended audience, assumed background of attendees, name,
affiliation, and a biographical sketch of the instructors.
Proposals should be sent to the tutorials chair
(tutorials.perf2007@tlc.polito.it).
