The MASCOTS conference is a well-established forum for state-of-the-art
research on the measurement, modeling, and performance analysis of computer
systems and networks. The 24th edition of this conference will take place
September 21-23, 2016 in Imperial College Campus, London. The conference
will bring together academics and industry practitioners to present and
discuss their latest research results. The technical program for the 3-day
conference will include keynote talks, refereed full and work-in-progress
papers. The MASCOTS conference encourages original submissions describing
state-of-the-art research in the areas of the performance evaluation of
computer systems and networks networks, as well as in related areas and
emerging technologies and new areas such as nano-networks, social networks,
energy networks and the smart grid, the use of Big Data for performance
analysis, machine learning techniques for performance analysis and
management, and the Cloud. Papers describing results of both theoretical
and practical significance are solicited. Measurements and experimental
results, and simulation studies are all both in the scope of the
conference. Work presenting novel performance evaluation methods or
providing insights on the design and runtime management tradeoffs are also
encouraged.



Broad topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the performance
of:

    ▪    Computer architectures, multi-core processors, and memory systems

    ▪    Computer networks, protocols, and algorithms

    ▪    Nano-networks

    ▪    Databases and Big Data technologies

    ▪    Big Data for computer and network management

    ▪    Distributed and Cloud computing

    ▪    Energy efficient computer systems

    ▪    Mobile systems

    ▪    Multimedia systems

    ▪    Operating systems and virtualization

    ▪    Smart grids and cyber-physical systems

    ▪    Social networks

    ▪    Storage and file systems

    ▪    Web systems, enterprise applications and web services

    ▪    Wireless, mobile, ad-hoc, and sensor networks



SUBMISSIONS:

Papers must be unpublished and must not be submitted or under review for
publication elsewhere. Technical Program Committee members and other
experts active in the field will review submitted papers to ensure high
quality and relevance to the conference program. Accepted papers will
appear in the conference proceedings to be published by IEEE press. For
accepted papers, attendance by at least one author is mandatory. We invite
both full and work-in-progress papers as described below. Full Papers:
Submissions may be up to 6 pages in length (including figures and
references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size
10 point or greater. Work-in-progress papers provide a peer-reviewed forum
for late-breaking or preliminary research results, giving an opportunity
for researchers and practitioners to present and demonstrate their recent
research, and to obtain feedback from their peers in an informal setting.
Unsuccessful full paper submissions, where appropriate, will automatically
be considered for publication as a work-in-progress paper. Work-in-progress
paper submissions may be up to 3 pages in length (including figures and
references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size
10 point or greater.



Paper submission deadline: May 15, 2016

Notification of acceptance: June 15, 2016

Final paper version: July 5, 2016

Conference dates: September 21-23, 2016
