          Workshop on End-to-End Service Differentiation
                         (EESD 2004)
                in  conjunction  with IPCCC 2004 
               Phoenix, Arizona April 14-17, 2004 
                http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/eesd04

Scope:

Differentiated Services (DiffServ) is a proposed architecture  by
the  Internet  Engineering Task Force (IETF) in which various ap-
plications are  supported using a simple  classification  scheme.
Packets entering the DiffServ domain are handled depending on the
packets' class.  However, for  many  QoS-sensitive  applications,
such as e-commerce and steaming media, QoS differentiation at the
network layer alone may be insufficient to guarantee the applica-
tion's QoS requirements. Such applications require end-to-end QoS
differentiation.  End-to-end QoS guarantees require service  dif-
ferentiation mechanisms throughout the protocol stack, as well as
in the middleware, the operating system and even in the  applica-
tions.

We are interested in visionary, experimental, systems-related and
work in-progress papers in the area of QoS differentiation at the
network, middleware, operating system and application levels. Pa-
pers in the form of extended abstracts should describe  original,
previously unpublished work, not currently under review by anoth-
er conference, workshop, or journal.  Papers accepted for presen-
tation  will  be published in the  IPCCC  conference proceedings.
The workshop will also include invited papers.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to 
  - Differentiated services architectures 
  - Application-level service differentiation 
  - Policybased  QoS  differentiation  
  - Packet classification  and marking 
  - Packet scheduling algorithms and implementations 
  - Differentiated  buffer  management  
  - QoS across heterogeneous link technologies 
  - QoS for mobile application support 
  - Active network support for  QoS  differentiation  
  - Content-aware switches 
  - Multi-level admission control 
  - QoS-aware operating  systems  
  - QoS  differentiation for e-commerce and m-commerce 
  - QoS-aware web server architec tures 
  - Service differentiation via web  caching  
  - Service differentiation  via  content distribution networks 
  - QoS support for storage networks 
  - QoS support for networked games

Submission:

Authors are encouraged to submit their papers electronically. The
documents  must follow Adobe's Portable Document Format (PDF). To
do  so,  follow  the relevant link  on  the  workshop  home  page

Papers  are in the form of extended abstracts, 5-8 pages long.  A
cover page must include a title, descriptive keywords,  all   au-
thor's  names,  complete mailing addresses, telephone numbers, e-
mail addresses and an abstract of up to 150 words. Papers accept-
ed  for  presentation  will  be published in the IPCCC conference
proceedings.  For any further information, please check the work-
shop  web  page  at http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/eesd04 or the IPCCC
