CALL FOR PAPERS

International Workshop on Performance Modeling and Analysis of Communication 
in Parallel, Distributed, and Grid Networks (PMAC-PDG'05)

To be held in conjunction with The 11th International Conference on Parallel 
and Distributed Systems (ICPADS'2005) 
(Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society TCDP and TCPP, 
and Fukuoka Institute of Technology)

July 20 - 22, 2005 Fukuoka Institute of Technology (FIT), Fukuoka, Japan

SCOPE:
The performance modeling and evaluation of communication mechanisms and 
algorithms 
implemented in parallel, distributed, and grid computing systems have been 
an important and fundamental research topic over the past years as it poses 
a number of challenging problems that require new approaches and tools 
to keep up with the increasing complexity of these systems. 

This workshop will serve as a forum for researchers from both academia 
and industry to share and exchange their experiences, discuss challenges, 
and report state-of-the-art and in-progress research on all aspects of 
communication in parallel, distributed, and grid systems based on either 
wired or wireless networks with a specific emphasis on their performance 
modeling, evaluation and analysis. The topics of interest include,
 but are not limited to: 

* Performance evaluation of communication in large-scale parallel, 
  distributed, and grid systems
* Predictive performance models of communication
* Novel algorithms/protocols/mechanisms for communication
* Routing algorithms design and performance
* Performance measurement and monitoring tools
* Tracing and trace analysis
* Simulation techniques
* Analytical modeling
* Automatic performance analysis
* Performance evaluation techniques
* Performance comparison and metrics
* Workload characterization and traffic modeling of communication
* Performance impact of communication on application in parallel, distributed 
  and mobile computing systems
* Performance evaluation of MPI, PVM and other message-passing environments
* Group communication performance in wireless networks
* Communication performance in peer-to-peer networks
* Communication in mobile wireless ad hoc networks
* Performance improvement of communication through optimization and tuning
* Case studies showing the role of evaluation in the design of communication 
  protocols in wired/wireless networks
