NTCAA 2013 - The 5-th International Workshop on Network Traffic Control, Analysis and Applications (NTCAA-2013)

Networks of today are getting very complex. Therefore, network traffic control and analysis are very important aspects that should be investigated. Alo, new paradigms for solving complex problems by enabling large-scale aggregation and sharing of computational, data and other geographically distributed resources are appearing. Now, new types of networks with different features and characteristics are integretaed together. These topics require the investigation of many issues such as effective harnessing of Internet connected resources, development of new methods and techniques, which offer users a transparent, efficient and secured access to resources, efficient allocation of resources, decentralization and self-organization. These issues present nowadays real challenges to the development of large distributed systems and applications. The aim of this workshop is to present innovative research, methods and techniques related to Network Traffic Control, Network Performance Analysis and Evaluation, Network Security, P2P, Ad-Hoc Networks, Sensor Networks and Internet computing.
The workshop seeks original contributions in all relevant areas, including but not limited to the following topics.
Topics:
Wireless Networks Applications
Broadband Networks Traffic Control and Applications
