Call for Papers
Third COST 263 International Workshop on
Quality of future Internet Services (QofIS'02)
co-located with the
Second International Workshop on
Internet Charging and QoS Technology (ICQT'02)
"From QoS Provisioning to QoS Charging"
October 16-18, 2002
Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, ETH Zürich, TIK, Switzerland
URL: http://www.tik.ee.ethz.ch/~qofis02
Scope
Key issues for competitive communication systems include the
design,implementation, and provisioning of Quality-of-Service (QoS).
These tasks require for tomorrows Internet an emerging research and
new methods, which combine technical and economic parameters related
to networks, services, and applications. The QofIS'02 workshop is the
third international event organised by the COST 263 Action "Quality
of future Internet Services" and the ICQT'02 workshop is the second
joint meeting of network specialists and economists. Therefore, these
two colocated workshops determine a highly qualified forum for the
presentation and discussion of relevant approaches to Internet QoS
and their economics, bringing together researchers, developers, and
practitioners sides of academia and industry.
While the emphasis of QofIS'02 is on technology for an end-to-end and
top-down provisioning of QoS, covering the Internet and the
end-system, ICQT'02 focusses on the economics of QoS and the required
technology in support of charging. Both workshops target the
identification of solutions, investigations of their feasibility, and
a consolidation of technical and economic mechanisms to enable a
fast, guaranteed, and efficient provisioning of QoS-based services in
the Internet.
