Workshop Theme
==============

IWQoS is a very successful series of workshops providing an
international forum for the presentation and discussion of new
research and ideas on quality of service (QoS) -- the IWQoS2001
workshop in Karlsruhe follows the IWQoS events held in Columbia, Napa,
London, and Pittsburgh.  It is a premier forum for all work related to
QoS -- especially in networking but also QoS aspects outside of
networking are considered as very important as well, e.g., QoS in
operating systems, QoS in servers, advanced middleware services and
according technical issues such as quality, safety and security,
admission, accounting, mobility.  The objective of this Ninth
International Workshop on Quality of Service is to bring together
researchers, developers, and practitioners working in all these areas
to discuss recent innovative results and future directions.

The list of topics of interest includes (but is not limited to)
  - experiences with QoS (measurements, tests, evaluations)
  - QoS in heterogeneous networks
  - QoS routing
  - QoS and active networks
  - QoS for wireless and mobile
  - charging, accounting, and pricing for QoS
  - QoS support for applications and services
  - QoS in servers and endsystems
  - QoS support for information appliances
  - QoS control for middleware and platform support for QoS
  - QoS and adaptation mechanisms
  - resource management and control
  - analytical and simulation models for QoS
  - safety and security aspects
  - programmability and language aspects


Important Dates
===============
  - Paper deadline:    February 18, 2001
  - Notification:      April 2, 2001
  - Final papers due:  April 15, 2001
