Full papers due: April 20, 2009 <br />
Notification of acceptance: July 6, 2009 <br />
Final version due: July 27, 2009 <br />
<br />
Scope<br />
----------------------<br />
In recent years, a range of performance evaluation methodologies and tools <br />
has been developed within various research communities for the purposes of <br />
evaluation, design, and model reduction. The aim of the Performance <br />
Evaluation Methodologies and Tools conference is to build bridges between <br />
these communities, bringing theory and practice together. <br />
<br />
<br />
Topics<br />

Topics include, but are not limited to: <br />
<br />
A. Performance evaluation techniques <br />
<br />
o Advanced simulation tools <br />
- Simulation of rare events<br />
- Parallel/distributed simulations<br />
- Variance reduction techniques<br />
- Large deviations<br />
- Hybrid system simulation <br />
<br />
o Discrete event systems <br />
- Petri nets<br />
- Max-plus algebra<br />
- Automata, timed automata<br />
<br />
o Queueing theory <br />
- Markovian queues and networks<br />
- Network calculus<br />

<br />
Submission<br />
----------------------<br />
Authors are invited to submit papers of up to 10 pages in a PDF file, <br />
complying with the ACM conference proceedings format, through Easychair <br />
(http://www.easychair.org). Each paper will be peer reviewed for quality<br />
and correctness by at least three reviewers. Only original papers, <br />
written in English, which have not been published previously elsewhere, <br />
and are not currently under review for publication elsewhere, will be <br />
accepted. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and <br />
present the work at the conference. <br />
<br />
Publication and awards<br />
----------------------<br />
The event is organized by ICST in cooperation with the ACM Special <br />
Interest Groups on computer/communication system performance (SIGMETRICS) <br />
(approval pending) and Simulation (SIGSIM) (approval pending). All <br />
accepted papers will be made available in the ACM Digital Library (approval <br />
pending) and EU-DL. Best papers, after further reviews, will be considered <br />
for publication in a special issue of the Performance Evaluation Journal <br />
(approval pending) and Discrete Events Dynamic Systems Journal (approval <br />
pending). <br />
<br />
A Best Paper and Best Student Paper will be selected by peer reviews and <br />
will be acknowledged with awards presented during the social event. <br />
