MASCOTS 2014 - IEEE 22nd International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems

We encourage original submissions describing research that advances the state of the art in the areas of computer networks and performance evaluation of computer systems in the era of big data. The MASCOTS conference encourages papers describing results both of theoretic and practical significance. Papers presenting new performance evaluation methods or those applying existing methods to provide new insights into design trade-offs for computer and networked systems are particularly encouraged.
Broad topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Computer Architecture
Computer Networks
Database performance
Distributed/Parallel Systems for Large Scale Intensive Data
High Performance big data analysis
Industrial Practice and Experience
Internetworking Protocols
Multimedia Systems
Performance Evaluation Methodologies
Performance on Web Services and Cloud Computing
Pervasive Web and Mobility
Sensor and Wireless Networks
Social network
Security and privacy
Storage Systems
Web-based Systems
Submissions guidelines
Papers must be unpublished and must not be submitted or under review for publication elsewhere.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.
