MASCOTS 2024: International Symposium on the Modeling, Analysis, and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems (Call for Papers)
Krakow, Poland
Organization: IITIS PAN
Event: Call for Papers
The MASCOTS conference is a well-established forum for state-of-the-art research on the measurement, modeling, and performance analysis of computer systems and networks. The 32nd edition of this conference will take place on October 21-23, 2024 in the Radisson Blu Hotel, Krakow, Poland. The conference will bring together academia and industry to present and discuss their latest research results. The technical program for the 3-day conference will include keynote talks and refereed paper presentations, including workshops.
We encourage original submissions describing state-of-the-art research in the areas of the performance evaluation of computer systems and networks as well as in related areas. Papers describing results of theoretical and/or practical significance are welcome. Experimental, modeling, and simulation studies are all in the scope of the conference. Papers focusing on novel performance evaluation methods or providing insights on design and runtime management tradeoffs are particularly encouraged.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Big data and advanced machine learning techniques for system design, optimization, and cybersecurity
Cloud/edge/fog technologies
Combining quality of service and cybersecurity in system performance
Computer architectures, multi-core processors, accelerators (e.g., GPUs), and memory systems
Computer networks, protocols, and algorithms
Databases and big data systems and technologies
Internet-of-Things
Mobile systems
Multimedia systems
Operating systems and virtualization technologies
Security in computer and communication systems
Smart grids and cyber-physical systems
Social networks
Storage and file systems
Sustainable (or energy-efficient) computing
Web systems, enterprise applications, and web services
Wireless, mobile, ad-hoc, and sensor networks
Submissions must be formatted in IEEE style using two-columns and may be up to 8 pages in length, including tables, figures, appendices, and references.
Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore's scope and quality requirements (approval pending). In addition to IEEE Xplore, in recent years a selection of accepted papers have also been invited to submit an extended version of their work to a special issue in the Performance Evaluation (PEVA) journal. Papers that are not accepted for the conference program will be considered for the MASCOTS'24 Workshop and, if accepted, may then be published in another Open Access venue.
