                         Call for Papers

                    ******SIGMETRICS 2003 ******

                     International Conference on
            Measurement and Modeling of Computer Systems

                         June 10-14, 2003
                     San Diego, California
                http://www.crhc.uiuc.edu/sigm2003

       (held in conjunction with FCRC'03 (http://www.acm.org/fcrc)

    The SIGMETRICS conference solicits papers on the development and
    application of state-of-the-art, broadly applicable analytic,
    simulation, and measurement-based performance evaluation techniques.
    We are interested in techniques whose aim is to evaluate a system's
    dependability, security, correctness, or power consumption as well as
    more traditional performance metrics. Of particular interest is work
    that furthers the state of the art in performance evaluation methods,
    or that creatively applies previously developed methods to gain
    important insights into key design trade-offs in complex computer and
    communication systems.

    Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

    - Performance-oriented design and evaluation studies of communication
      networks, Internet servers, computer architectures, database
      systems, operating systems, distributed systems, multimedia systems,
      mobile and handheld systems, file and I/O systems, memory systems,
      real-time systems, and dependable systems, including case studies
      and performance-evaluation tools.

    - Performance methodology techniques, algorithms, and tools for
      analytic modeling, system measurement and monitoring, model
      verification and validation, workload characterization, simulation,
      statistical analysis, stochastic modeling including queues,
      stochastic Petri nets, stochastic process algebras, experimental
      design, reliability and availability analysis, power analysis,
      performance optimizations, and hybrid models.

    Submission Guidelines
    =====================

    - Papers: On October 25, 2002, authors must submit the title,
      abstract, and author list (with affiliations) for their intended
      submission. Submissions of the full papers are due on November 1,
      2002 and should not exceed 20 double-spaced pages, including figures
      and tables. Papers must be submitted electronically in printable
      postscript or PDF form. All submissions will be reviewed using a
      double-blind review process. The identity of the authors and
      referees will not be revealed to each other. To ensure blind
      reviewing, authors' names and affiliations MUST NOT appear in the
      paper; bibliographic references must be made in such as way as to
      preserve author anonymity. See the web site for more information on
      submission.

    - Hot Topic Sessions: Proposals are solicited for a hot topic session,
      in which a group of speakers will present and discuss their recent
      results in an area. Send proposals to the program chairs,
      identifying the organizer of the session, the session title, three
      to five speakers, the titles of their talks, and a short abstract of
      each talk.

    - Tutorials: A series of tutorials will immediately precede the main
      conference. Send proposals of no more than 1 or 2 pages (for
      90-minute or 3-hour tutorials) to the tutorials chair. Include the
      proposed title, brief description of material, intended audience,
      assumed background of attendees, and the name, affiliation, contact
      information (e-mail and phone), and brief biography of speaker(s).
      Postscript or PDF is preferred.
