Deadline: April 01, 2016 |  Date: June 27, 2016-June 30, 2016

Venue/Country: Messina, Italy

General Chair:  Lynda Mokdad, University Paris XII, France

Co-chairs: Abdelkrim Abdelli and Youcef Hammal, University USTHB,

=====================================================

SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
--------------------
Performance evaluation is still a topic that attains a lot of attention 
in both distributed and mobile systems as well as Web based services 
architectures. Due to the recent advances in internet based applications 
as well as distributed and mobile communication systems, we are 
witnessing a variety of new technologies. However, these systems are 
becoming very large and complex at the same time. Several challenges 
remain to be resolved before these systems become a commodity. 
Guaranteeing QoS and provisioning of web-based systems as well as 
distributed and mobile systems and evaluating their communication 
performance represent among the challenging problem in the design of 
these systems. Quantitative analysis can be very difficult and may be 
intractable because of the state space explosion. New methods and tools 
have recently emerged for these kinds of complex systems, such as 
Stochastic Automata Networks, Stochastic bounds, PEPA, etc.
This workshop focuses on the performance evaluation of both distributed 
and mobile systems, as well as Web based services architectures using 
both analytical methods and simulation studies. Authors are encouraged 
to submit full papers presenting new research related to QoS and 
communication performance evaluation of these systems. Submitted papers 
must not have been published elsewhere nor currently be under review by 
another conference or journal.


Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
-----------------------------------------------------
· Routing optimization
· Quantitative analysis
· Stochastic comparisons
· Bandwidth management
· Web services composition
· Measurement, analysis, modeling
· QoS for Web services architectures
· Simulation and measurements techniques
· Tools and software for performance evaluation
· Network Protocols design for Web service devices
· Performance evaluation of distributed and web-based systems
· Communication performance evaluation of distributed and mobile 
systems.

IMPORTANT DATES
---------------
Paper Submission Deadline: 1 April 2016
Notification of paper Acceptance: 7 May 2016
Camera-ready paper Submission: 21 May 2016


INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS
-------------------------
High-quality original papers are solicited. Papers must be unpublished 
and must not be submitted for publication elsewhere. All papers will be 
reviewed by Technical Program Committee members and other experts active 
in the field to ensure high quality and relevance to the conference.  
Submission should include a cover page with authors' names, affiliation 
addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses. Please, indicate clearly 
the corresponding author and include up to 6 keywords from the above 
list of topics and an abstract of no more than 400 words. The full 
manuscript should be at most 6 pages long using the two-column IEEE 
format.
Only papers submitted in PDF format via EDAS submission system will be 
considered (https://edas.info/N21787). For additional information, 
please visit http://iscc2016.unime.it/ or contact program co-chairs.
The authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be 
presented at the conference so at least one author of each accepted 
paper must register for the conference.
The Workshop Proceedings will be part of the ISCC 2016 Proceedings and 
will be submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
The best papers will be invited to submit a revised and extended version 
of their paper in special issue of JOCS Journal Elsevier.
