IWQoS 2015 - IWQoS 2015: IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Quality of Service

Quality of Service (QoS) in communication systems has been a long lasting research focus worldwide. The twenty-year history of IWQoS has established it as a highly reputable forum to present novel ideas on all research subjects related to the topic. IWQoS 2013 will grow into a symposium based on its past success. While QoS research for future generations of wired and wireless networks continues to attract much interest, recent exploration of data centers, virtualization, cloud computing, cloud services, industrial communication, and “green” computing has motivated a new wave of research interest in QoS and its related metrics such as Quality of Experience (QoE) and Quality of Protection (QoP).
The scope of IWQoS 2015 covers both theoretical and experimental research on QoS, QoE, QoP and related issues such as survivability, availability, reliability, security, privacy, pricing, resource provisioning and management, user experience, and system performance guarantees. Topics of interest include QoS issues in (but not limited to) the following areas:
Quality of cloud services and cloud computing
Quality of protection, quality experience, security and privacy
System dependability, availability; resilience and robustness to faults and security attacks
Scheduling, resource management, queue management, admission control
Traffic engineering approaches and tools for provisioning and evaluation
Quality evaluation metrics and methodologies; application-aware
QoS parsing, identification and control
Measurement, evaluation, adaptation and verification
Network operations, pricing and billing, network and service management
Architectures and protocols for IP, overlay and peer-to-peer networks; optical networks, wireless, ad hoc, mesh, and sensor networks
Energy awareness in communication systems
Design for the Future Internet
