From: 
             Marco Ajmone Marsan <ajmone@polito.it>
===========================================================

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to submit your papers about Internet Performance
to the Internet Performance Symposium (IPS 2001) that will be 
held in conjunction with GLOBECOM 2001.

You can visit the web page of IPS 2001 at:
http://www1.tlc.polito.it/ips2001/index.html
(you can also reach the same page from 
http://www.globecom2001.com/src/TWorkshops.shtml
by clicking on the Workshop title)

The submission deadline for IPS 2001 is the same as that of 
GLOBECOM (March 31st), and submissions are handled through 
the GLOBECOM web site. 

Remember to mention that your submission is for IPS 2001, 
so that your paper can be considered for the Workshop.

More precisely, in order to direct your paper to IPS 2001, 
when you are in the GLOBECOM 2001 submission window:
http://www.expotrack.com/globecom/submit.asp
just after entering your paper abstract, 
select as conference sub-theme:
S5: Internet Performance Symposium

Thanks a lot.

Call for Papers 

The Internet Performance Symposium covers all aspects related to the collection of information useful to understand
the performance of portions of the Internet and/or of corporate Intranets/Extranets, or, more generally, of IP-based
networks. The symposium thus covers all aspects relating to: 

      measurements performed over IP networks 
      tools and techniques for the simulation of IP networks 
      analytical modeling paradigms for the investigation of the performance of IP networks 

Papers are requested in the following areas: 
      Models of aggregate Internet traffic 
      Models of Internet traffic sources 
      Models of TCP 
      Models of IP routers 
      Simulation tools for IP networks 
      Efficient techniques for the simulation of IP networks 
      Techniques and tools to measure the performance of IP networks 
      Results of performance studies of IP networks 
      Provision of QoS guarantees in IP networks 
      End-to-end QoS in IP networks 
      QoS in wireless/mobile IP networks 
      Experimental results on QoS 


Important dates
