DOM-HetNetS 2010 - The International Workshop on Design, Optimization and Management of Heterogeneous Networked Systems DOM-HetNetS’10

The need for improved performance, reliability, and security in heterogeneous networked systems has led to the rapid development of novel solutions for the design, optimization, control, and management of wired and wireless networked system. In this context, interdisciplinary approaches have received considerable attention since they provide techniques, models and methods coming from different research fields and a proper integration move towards efficient and effective solutions. Providing security and improving the reliability of communications in heterogeneous scenarios has proven to be a challenging task that requires innovative and sometimes revolutionary contributions to keep up with the rapid evolution and ever increasing complexity of such systems. This workshop will bring together scientists, engineers, practitioners, and computer users to share and exchange their experiences, discuss challenges, and report state-of-the-art and in-progress research on all aspects of the design, optimization, control, and management of the current and next generation of heterogeneous networked systems. The topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

? Theoretical design, analysis and optimization frameworks
? Protocols and novel design approaches
? Comparison and optimization
? Communication algorithms for heterogeneous networks including,:
Interconnection networks and Network on Chip (NoC)
Cluster and grid based systems
Mobile and wireless Networks
Ubiquitous networked systems
? Workload characterizations
? Performance modeling and simulation
? Performance analysis and evaluation
? Case studies and practical implementations
? Case studies crossing design, management, and practical implementations.
