CfP: QofIS'02/ICQT'02
by Burkhard Stiller 20 Dec '01

Apologies for multiple copies of this announcement! Please feel free to distribute a copy of this call for paper to those who might be interested. This CfP is also available from http://www.tik.ee.ethz.ch/~qofis02/CfP.pdf. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. List of Topics QofIS'02 ICQT'02 Traffic modelling and classification Economic models for the Internet Traffic policing and scheduling Internet pricing and tariffing QoS mapping and negotiation Internet charging technology QoS routing Internet accounting and billing QoS signaling ISP cost and business models Traffic engineering Charging for differentiated services End-to-end QoS support Charging for mobile services Policy-based QoS control Application service provider models Middleware QoS Security mechanisms for charging Active Internet services Monitoring and measurements End-to-end services Management of Service Level Agreements QoS in mobile environments Papers and Submissions Papers are solicited as full papers (in English), of no more than 10 single-spaced pages, each of which will be subject to a full review process. Submissions should follow already the author guidelines as specified below and must include: title, authors, affiliations, 100-word abstract, and a list of maximum five keywords.

An electronic, PDF-based submission of papers is mandatory, please check the URL http://www.tik.ee.ethz.ch/~qofis02 for further submission instructions or contact qofis02(a)tik.ee.ethz.ch for additional information. The conference proceedings are published as hard-copy and electronically by Springer Verlag, Heidelberg, Germany, in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science Series. They will be availabe during the event. Authors are obliged to follow the LNCS's guidelines in preparing their manuscript. Author guidelines with respect to the final camera ready paper formats are to be followed without exception, including the 10 page limit, and may be obtained at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. Important Dates Deadline for submissions: May 6, 2002 Notification of acceptance: July 1, 2002 Camera-ready version: August 2, 2002 Workshop dates: October 16-18, 2002 General Information The final program will accommodate in sequence on October 16 and 17, 2002 the single-track QofIS'02 workshop and on October 18, 2002 the single-track ICQT'02 workshop.
