Scope of the Conference
With the advancement of key technologies in communication such as optical
and radio transmission, coding schemes, switching mechanisms and so on,
communication networks are quickly becoming of larger-scale in higher speed
than expected. As for usage, Internet and real time applications are
prospected to share a significant portion of the bandwidth in next
generation communication networks. Therefore extensive research on
networking technologies to achieve seamless and QoS guaranteed transmission
depending on source characteristics is indispensable. For the proper design,
development and operation of emerging ideas on networking, further studies
on performance modeling and evaluation reflecting from the above points are
also encouraged.
In this international conference, we expect presentations of the latest
research results from the aspects of theory, simulation, and implementation,
as well as informal discussions, for the contribution to future development
in this field.
Expected subjects are, but not restricted to, the following and related topics:
Admission and Congestion Control
CATV
Cellular Systems
High-Speed LAN
Internet
Mobile Computing & Communication
Multicast Communication
Multimedia Communication
Network Management and Control
Optical Networks
Protocol Enhancement
Real Time Communication over IP Networks
WDMA
Wireless LAN and ATM
xDSL
Applications of Queueing Theory
Internet Traffic Models
Large Deviation Theory
Network Calculus
Numerical Analysis Techniques
Performance Evaluation Tools
Rare Event Simulation
Self-similar/Long-Memory Traffic Modeling
Spatial Teletraffic Models in Mobile Newtorks
