International Workshop on Network Simulation Tools
Nantes, France / October 22, 2007

http://www.nstools.org/

******************************************************
**** EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE -- June 1, 2007 ****
******************************************************

** In technical cooperation with ACM SIGMETRICS and SIGSIM **

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The Network Simulation Tools Workshop (NSTools) is a one-day event
held in conjunction with the Second International Conference on
Performance Evaluation Methodologies and Tools (VALUETOOLS'07), which
will be held in Nantes, France, on October 22, 2007.

** All accepted papers will be made available in the **
** Association for Computing Machinery Digital Library **

---------------------------------------------------------------------

** SCOPE **

Simulation tools are widely used within the Networking community to
simulate packet-switched networks and perform a large number of
wildly different tasks: they are often used in the industry and
within both academic and educational settings to design and evaluate
new and existing protocols and architectures.

The aim of the Network Simulation Tools workshop is thus to bring
together academic and industry researchers from both the Networking
and the Simulation communities to discuss current and future trends
in network simulation and to foster interdisciplinary collaborative
research in this area.

** PAPERS **

This workshop does not focus on network research results based on
the use of simulation tools: we are looking for original contributions
on the design and the use of the tools themselves. The following
topics are of particular interest.

Development of new simulation environments:

- parallel and distributed simulations
- real-time simulation of networks within the setting
of a larger real network testbed
- integration of real-world network applications in
conventional simulation tools
- textual and graphical post-processing analysis tools
- large-scale network simulations
- simulation accuracy evaluations

Development of new simulation models especially in, but not restricted
to, the areas of:

- Wireless and mobile networks: 3/4G, 802.11, 802.16/WiMAX, etc.,
- Peer to peer systems,
- Sensor networks, and,
- Delay-tolerant networking,

** IMPORTANT DATES **

Full Papers due: June 1, 2007 ** extended **
Notification of Acceptance: June 30, 2007
Camera-ready Manuscripts due: July 30, 2207
Conference Date: October 22, 2007

** SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS **

Conference language is English. Prospective authors are encouraged
to submit a PDF version of the full paper in the ACM conference
proceedings format, which are limited to 10 two-column pages in a
font no smaller than 10-points. Paper submission will be handled
electronically through Cocus (http://cocus.info/).
All submitted papers will go through a peer review process.

NSTools'07 is in technical cooperation with ACM SIGMETRICS and SIGSIM
All accepted papers will be made available in ACM Digital Library, as
well as indexed by EI and ISI Index.

[Tccc] WiMob'07: Special Session on Mobility Models

CFP for IEEE WiMOB'2007 special session on Mobility Models for
Mobile Ad hoc Networks, Mesh networks, Wireless networks and NEMO
networks

The session is a part of the 3rd IEEE International Conference on
Wireless and Mobile Computing, Networking and Communications
"WiMob 2007"

http://www.gel.usherbrooke.ca/WiMob2007/, which will take place in
Crowne Plaza Hotel, White Plains, New York, USA, from October 8-10, 2007.

Motivations:

Because WiMob'07 conference is focused on wireless networks and because
the performances of wireless networks are strongly linked to the
mobility models used, we propose a special session focusing only on
mobility models. This session is focused on these kind of wireless
networks:
- MANET: Mobile ad hoc networks where whole the topology is dynamic
- Mesh networks and classical wireless networks offering an
infrastructure topologies allowing fixed and mobile Internet for the
end user.
- Network Mobile (NEMO) networks offering new kind of dynamic topology
where not only the user is mobile but also the network

These kind of networks should deal with mobility: user mobility, group
mobility, etc. But, what is really mobility? how mobility influences the
performances? how to define new mobility models? etc.

Scope of the Contributions for Mobility Models in the case of MANET,
Mesh Networks, Wireless Networks and NEMO networks (include but are not
limited to the following):

- Performance evaluation of mobility models

- New mobility models to mimic particular behavior

- Theoretical aspects of mobility models

- Theoretical frameworks for mobility

- Mobility models based on realistic traces

- Mobility management

- Networking protocols and mobility models

- Tools for mobility models (generators, integrators to simulators, ..)

- etc.

Authors are invited to submit a complete technical paper of their
original work. Maximum length for submissions is 8 double column pages
in IEEE format. The preferred submission format is PDF.

Session Chair: Fabrice Valois, INSA Lyon, France
Session Co-chair: Thomas Noel, University of Strasbourg, France
