CNS 2012 - 15th Communications and Networking Simulation (CNS'12) Symposium

15th Communications and Networking Simulation (CNS'12) Symposium
Communications and networking embody the heart and the nerve system of the information technology - a technology that is profoundly affecting our daily lives. Experts, researchers, managers, and entrepreneurs in this dynamic field often encounter challenges that lead to innovative basic as well as applied research and developments. You are invited to submit full papers reporting original work to a forum where experts from industry and academia meet and exchange ideas on the topics. This international forum provides a bridge between the communications industry and academic research laboratories.
We welcome papers describing design principles as well as applications pertinent to communications and networks with special emphasis on modeling and simulation. Papers are solicited in the following (but not limited to) area of interests for peer review and presentation in the conference:
Cloud Computing
Health Information Systems
Network Security and Management
Network Design and Performance Analysis
Wireless Communications and Mobile Networks
Traffic Engineering and Measurements
Clusters and Grid Computing & Communications
Application of High Level Architecture for Networking Industry
Network Centric Defense Application
Network Centric Virtual Environments
Virtual Environments for Training
Web-Based Simulation and Applications
