MASCOTS 2013 - 2013 IEEE International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems

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[1]. The 21st edition of this conference will take place August 14-16, 2013 in San Francisco, CA. The conference will bring together academics and industry practitioners to present and discuss their latest research results. The technical program for the 3-day conference will include keynote talks, refereed full and work-in-progress papers, and posters.
We encourage original submissions describing state-of-the-art research in the areas of computer networks and performance evaluation of computer systems. Of particular interest are papers describing results of theoretic and/or practical significance. Broad topics of interest include:
Computer Architecture
Computer Networks
Internetworking Protocols
Mobile Systems
Multimedia Systems
Sensor Networks
Smart Grids
Storage Systems
Web-based Systems
Wireless Networks
Full Papers
Submissions may be up to 10 pages in length (including figures and references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size 10 point or greater. For guidelines regarding formatting, please refer to the IEEE Manuscript Templates for Conference Proceedings.
Work-in-Progress Papers
Work-in-progress papers provide a peer-reviewed forum for late-breaking or preliminary research results, giving an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to present and demonstrate their recent research, and to obtain feedback from their peers in an informal setting. Unsuccessful full paper submissions, where appropriate, will automatically be considered for publication as a work-in-progress paper.
Work-in-progress paper submissions may be up to 3 pages in length (including figures and references), with the option of purchasing one extra page upon acceptance, formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size 10 point or greater.
Submissions
MASCOTS’13 is using the HotCRP Conference Management Software. Submit manuscripts conforming to the guidelines given above.
Papers must be unpublished and must not be submitted or under review for publication elsewhere. Technical Program Committee members and other experts active in the field will review submitted papers to ensure high quality and relevance to the conference program. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings to be published by IEEE press. For accepted papers, attendance by at least one author is mandatory.
