38th International Symposium on Computer Performance, Modeling,
Measurement and Evaluation
November 2nd-6th, 2020, Milan, Italyhttps://www.performance2020.deib.polimi.it/
The 38th International Symposium on Computer Performance, Modeling,
Measurement and Evaluation 2020 will be held in Milan, Italy, from 2nd
November to 6th November 2020.
The IFIP Performance conference aims to bring together researchers
interested in understanding and improving the performance of computing
and communication systems by means of state-of-the-art quantitative
models and solution techniques.
Research papers on the design of algorithms, mathematical analysis and
modeling, simulation and measurement techniques for computer systems
or communication networks are solicited.
Topics of interest include the following.
Performance-oriented methodologies including:
- Stochastic modelling, statistical analysis and simulation
- Capacity planning, resource allocation, routing, scheduling and
Quality of Service
- Energy-efficient computing and networking
- Computer architectures and operating systems
- Network architectures, protocols and congestion control
- Storage systems and datacenters
Evaluation techniques, and algorithms for:
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
- Blockchains and crypto-currency
- Cyber-physical systems, Internet of Things, fog computing
- Data centers, content delivery, cloud computing and virtualization
- Internet and web services
- Network economics and markets
- Security systems
- Social networks, multimedia systems and smart grid
- Wireless, ad-hoc and cellular networks
IMPORTANT DATES
Abstract submission: May 10th, 2020
Full paper submission: May 17th, 2020
Notification to authors: July 19th, 2020
PAPER SUBMISSION
Performance 2020 accepts submissions in two categories:
- Regular papers: 12 pages
- Short papers: 6 pages
Regular papers should not exceed 12 pages double-column and
single-spaced including figures, tables and references in standard ACM
format. Short papers are limited to 6 pages. In addition (both for
regular and short paper submissions), a 2-page appendix is permitted,
which is not included in the page-count. Papers must be submitted
electronically in printable pdf form. Templates for the standard ACM
format can be found at
https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. Both the strict
and alternate styles are acceptable for submission. No changes to
margins, spacing or font sizes are allowed from those specified by the
style files. Papers violating the formatting guidelines will be
returned without review.
Papers can be submitted at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=performance2020.
Warning: It is ACM policy not to allow double submissions, where the
same paper is submitted to more than one conference/journal
concurrently. Any double submissions detected will be rejected
immediately from all conferences/journals involved.
Accepted short papers (limited to 6 pages ) and abstracts of accepted
regular papers will be published in a special issue of the ACM
Performance Evaluation Review (PER).
SPECIAL ISSUES
Regular papers will be published in a special issue of the Elsevier
journal Performance Evaluation (PEVA).
Alternatively (to be confirmed), authors may opt-out in favor of
submission to other special issues in one of:
- ACM Transactions on Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Computing
Systems (TOMPECS)
- Queueing Systems: Theory and Applications (QUESTA)
- Stochastic Systems
Authors need to make sure that their work falls within the scope of
the respective journal. All papers will be reviewed according to the
standards of the journal.
