MASCOTS 2017 - 25th IEEE International Symposium on the Modeling, Analysis, and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems

The MASCOTS conference encourages original submissions describing state-of-the-art research in the areas of the performance evaluation of computer systems and networks.
Papers describing results of theoretic and/or practical significance are solicited. Experimental, modeling, and simulation studies are all in the scope of the conference. Work presenting novel performance evaluation methods or providing insights on design and runtime management tradeoffs are particularly encouraged.
Broad topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Big data and machine learning techniques for performance analysis and management
Computer architectures, multi-core processors, and memory systems
Computer networks, protocols, and algorithms
Databases and big data systems and technologies
Distributed and cloud computing
Energy efficient computer systems
Mobile systems
Multimedia systems
Operating systems and virtualization
Security in computer and communication systems
Smart grids and cyber-physical systems
Social networks
Storage and file systems
Web systems, enterprise applications and web services
Wireless, mobile, ad-hoc, and sensor networks
