SCOPE AND AIMS <br>
<br>
The 12th joint ACM SIGMETRICS / Performance conference
solicits proposals for Tutorials on Monday, 11 June 2012
and for Workshops on Friday, 15 June 2012. If there is an
excellent response, it is possible for us to utilize
Saturday, 16 June also, for example for any planned full
day events. The main conference will take place over
three days, 12-14 June 2012. <br>
<br>
We welcome proposals related to the development and
application of state-of-the-art, broadly applicable,
analytic, simulation and measurement-based performance
evaluation techniques - including considerations of speed
and scalability as well as reliability, availability,
sustainability and manageability of systems. We encourage
both theoretical contributions and submissions relating to
real world empirical studies or focusing on implementation
and experimental issues. Proposals relating to emerging,
influential, tangential areas are appropriate for both
Tutorials and Workshops. <br>
<br>
WORKSHOPS: Send proposals of 1-2 pages to the General
Chair (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="mailto:sigmeperf12-general-chair@imperial.ac.uk">sigmeperf12-general-chair@imperial.ac.uk</a>).
Please include the proposed title, outline timetable
including a brief description of the topics in each
session, potential invited speaker(s), the intended
audience, membership of the workshop organizing committee,
and intended arrangements for publication of the
proceedings. Technical management of the workshops will
be autonomous but the fees and registration will be
handled by the main conference organizers. Workshops are
encouraged to seek sponsors from industrial contacts, but
this will in no way influence the selection of a proposal.
<br>
<br>
TUTORIALS: Send proposals of 1-2 pages for 90-minute or
3-hour tutorials to the Tutorial Chair (<a
class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="mailto:sigmeperf12-tutorial-chair@imperial.ac.uk">sigmeperf12-tutorial-chair@imperial.ac.uk</a>).
Include the proposed title, brief description of material,
intended audience, assumed background of attendees, and
the name, affiliation, contact information (email and
phone) and brief biography of the speaker(s). Tutorial
overviews will be published in the main conference
proceedings. <br>
