    Telecommunication Systems (SPECTS 2003)

                   July 20-24, 2003
                   Montreal, Canada
    http://scs.org/confernc/ssimc/ssimc03/cfp/spects03.htm

    Submission Deadlines
    Submission of Papers: January 31, 2003.
    Notification of Acceptance - April 25, 2003
    Final Camera-Ready Submission - May 23, 2003

    This annual international conference is a forum for professionals
    involved in performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication
    systems. Evaluation of computer systems and networks is needed at every
    stage in the life cycle of the product including design, manufacturing,
    sales/purchase, use, upgrade, tuning, etc. The discipline of performance

    evaluation has progressed rapidly in the past decade, and it has now
    begun to approach maturity. Significant progress has been made in
    analytic modeling, simulation, and measurement approaches for
    performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication systems.

    Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    Networking and Telecommunication Systems
    - Internet Technology
          - Quality of Service (QoS)
