[DMANET] IFIP WG 7.3 PERFORMANCE 2023: Call for Papers and Workshops

Hi All,

Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this call for papers and workshops.

The 2023 IFIP Performance conference will be held in Evanston/Chicago, USA, on November 13-17, 2023, and the website is now active at https://performance2023.sciencesconf.org/.

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 modelling, simulation and measurement techniques for computer systems or communication networks are solicited. Of particular interest is work that presents new performance evaluation methods, or that creatively applies previously developed methods to make predictions about or gain insights into key design trade-offs in a variety of computing, networked, and cyber-physical systems, ranging from mobile devices and Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications to large-scale cloud computing systems. We specifically also invite papers reproducing prior results in these areas, when adding to the reproducibility or applicability of the result.
