CFP: PERFORMANCE MODELLING AND EVALUATION OF ATM & IP NETWORKS (27th - 29th June, 2001, Budapest, Hungary)

First Call for Papers

9th IFIP WORKING CONFERENCE on
PERFORMANCE MODELLING AND EVALUATION OF ATM & IP NETWORKS

27th - 29th June, 2001, Hotel Agro, Budapest, Hungary

The focus of the 9th IFIP Working Conference on ATM & IP Networks 
(IFIP ATM & IP 2001) is to contribute to fundamental research 
in ATM and IP technologies and in internetworking issues focusing 
on performance and reliability modeling and analysis.

The Conference is built on the tradition of the earlier workshops 
(Bradford - Ilkley, Antwerp,) with increasing emphasis on issues 
related to IP and to the global Internet. We specially encourage 
researchers to submit original papers and posters in the field of 
Internet performance evaluation.

Paper topics include, but are not limited to:

. Internet Protocols over ATM Networks
. ATM and IP Switch Architectures
. Wireless IP/ATM for Terrestrial and Satellite Networks
. Multi-service IP/ATM Mobile and Optical Networks
. ATM and IP Traffic Measurement and Management
. ATM and IP Traffic Modeling and Characterization
. ATM and IP Call Admission Control (CAC)
. Cell/Packet Level Scheduling Strategies
. IP and ATM Resource Allocation Strategies
. Flow and Congestion Control Functions and Procedures
. QoS Routing, Load Balancing and MPLS Traffic Engineering
. Multimedia over Packet-Based Networks
. Quantitative Methodologies and Tools
. Queuing Network Models of New ATM Switch/IP Router Architectures
. Support of Diffserv in ATM Networks
. Mapping IP Intserv and Diffserv Models onto ATM Networks
. Real-time Voice/Video Transport over ATM versus IP Networks
. Efficiency of Adaptation Layer and Transport Protocols
. ATM versus IP QoS Performance Testing and Measurements
. IP/ATM performance in WLAN, GPRS and UMTS
. IP/ATM Internetworking Issues and Experiments

Submission of full paper:       January 31, 2001
Notification of acceptance:     March 31, 2001
Camera ready paper due:         April 30, 2001
Submission of poster abstract:  May 15, 2001

Full papers up to 12 A4 pages (single spaced) will be peer 
reviewed by international experts for presentation and for 
Proceedings publication. Accepted papers are also considered 
for publication in a reviewed international journal 
to be announced later. 

Technical abstracts of approximately 300 words are solicited 
for poster presentation. The poster abstracts will not be 
included in the Proceedings but preprints and web publication 
will be available. Best posters will be awarded.
