CQSM 2013 - Communication QoS and System Modeling Symposium

Communication networks are designed to offer service to their users with suitable Quality of Service (QoS) level. For
that, network traffic should be analyzed and appropriately controlled so that the desired QoS requirements are achieved.
The plethora of applications and current network technologies and standards, require particular modeling and design
tools. Furthermore, different techniques including analytical modeling, simulation, experimentation, and monitoring are
needed in order to support design of communication networks and services.
The aim of the “QoS and System Modeling” Symposium is to provide an international forum for the discussion of
communications service provisioning, the quality and mechanisms to support such services as well as the techniques to
model and assess the efficiency of communication networks. Authors are invited to submit original technical papers
covering but not limited to the topics of interest listed below:
? Quality in Multimedia Networks including Voice over IP and IPTV
