The 4th IEEE workshop on performance modeling and evaluation in computer and telecommunication networks (PMECT 2010)
Scope of Interest
There is a growing interest recently in the convergence of wired networks and wireless access systems and networks. Development in wireless communication technologies and mobile networks has posed various challenges to researchers in the field of performance modeling. These challenges require effective performance evaluation tools, techniques and methodologies to design new protocols and robust solutions before a global and wide-scale integrated broadband infrastructure of convergent multi-service networks can be established towards the next generation of networks with efficient support of a wide range of applications.
The purpose of this workshop is to provide an international forum for researchers and industry practitioners to present their state-of-art research on performance modeling and evaluation studies in all aspects of computer and telecommunication networks and to exchange ideas and explore new avenues of collaborations.
Scope
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Energy model of wireless protocols
Performance modeling of TCP/IP, Wireless TCP, wireless IP computer networks
Performance modeling and analysis of reliability, Quality of Service (QoS)and performance guarantees
