FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS
17th Annual Meeting of the IEEE/ACM International Symposium on
Modelling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems
September 21-23, 2009
South Kensington Campus, Imperial College London, UK
http://mascots2009.doc.ic.ac.uk/
The MASCOTS conference is a well-established international forum for
state-of-the-art research on measurement, modelling and performance
analysis of computer systems and communication networks. The 17th annual
meeting of MASCOTS will be held at the South Kensington Campus of
Imperial College London, UK. The conference will bring together
academics and industry practitioners to present and discuss their latest
research results. The technical programme for the 3-day conference will
include keynote talks, refereed papers, and posters.
The fourth International workshop on Practical Applications of
Stochastic Modelling (PASM) will be held jointly with MASCOTS, on
September 24:

We encourage researchers world-wide to submit both theoretical and
practical results of significance which have not been published
elsewhere. The conference proceedings for MASCOTS 2009 will be published
by the IEEE Computer Society.
PAPERS
MASCOTS 2009 seeks original technical papers describing research in the
areas of computer systems and network performance evaluation. The scope
of the symposium includes, but is not limited to:
Computer Architecture
Distributed/Parallel Systems
Computer Networks
Heterogeneous Systems
Industrial Practice and Experience
Internetworking Protocols
Multi-core Systems
Multimedia Systems
Performance Evaluation Methodologies
Pervasive Web and Mobility
Sensor Networks
Software and Operating Systems
Storage Systems
Web-based Systems
Wireless Networks
Submissions may be up to 10 pages in length (including figures and
references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font
size no less than 10 point. All papers will be peer-reviewed by at least
three members of the program committee. We will not accept any paper
which, at the time of submission, is under review for or has already
been published or accepted for publication in any other conference or
journal. Accepted papers for MASCOTS 2009 will appear in the conference
proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society. Authors of
highly-ranked papers may be invited to submit extended versions of their
work to appropriate IEEE or ACM journals.
POSTERS
Posters provide a forum for late-breaking or preliminary research
results, giving an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to
present and demonstrate their recent work, and to obtain feedback from
their peers in an informal setting. Material submitted as a full paper
may also be submitted as a poster paper; if the full papers is accepted
the poster will not be considered. Poster paper submissions may be up to
two pages in length, excluding references, formatted as described in the
submission page. Accepted poster papers will be allocated up to three
pages in the conference proceedings.

LOCATION
Imperial College's South Kensington campus is located in the heart of
the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, a quiet and green part of
the capital, yet close to several of London's major cultural landmarks.
Imperial is next door to the Natural History Museum, the Royal Albert
Hall, the Albert Memorial, the Science museum and the Victoria and
Albert museum. Hyde Park, Kensington Palace and Harrods are a short walk
away. London's other major attractions, including Buckingham Palace, the
Palace of Westminster, the West End and Covent Garden can be reached in
a few minutes by bus, tube (metro) or taxi.
