  Fourth IEEE International Workshop on Performance

          Evaluation of Communications in Distributed

         Systems and Web based Service Architectures



                    July 1-4 2012, Cappadocia, Turkey



Organized In conjuction with the seventeenth IEEE symposium

           on Computers and Communications (ISCC 2012)


Performance evaluation remains a topic of significant concern in the area of
distributed and mobile systems

as well as for Web-based services architectures. With the recent advances in
Internet based applications as well

as distributed and mobile communication systems, we are witnessing the
sustained emergence of various new

technologies, with new performance characterization.

Furthermore, these systems are becoming very large and complex at the same
time. Several challenges remain

to be resolved before these systems can become a commodity; typically
guaranteeing QoS and provisioning

of web-based systems as well as distributed and mobile systems and 
evaluating
their communication performance

stand among the most challenging problems in the design of these systems.



Quantitative analysis can be very difficult to perform, and even intractable
because of the size of the state space.

Promising new methods and tools have recently emerged for such complex
systems, such as Stochastic Automata Networks,
Stochastic bounds, PEPA, just to mention a few.

This workshop focus on the performance evaluation of both distributed and
mobile systems,

as well as Web based services architectures using both analytical 
methods and
simulation studies.



Authors are encouraged to submit full papers presenting new research related
to QoS and communication performance evaluation
of these systems. Submitted papers must not have been published 
elsewhere nor
currently be under review by another conference or journal.





Topics:

PEDISWESA 2012 focus on the performance evaluation of both distributed and
mobile systems,

as well as Web based services architectures using both analytical 
methods and
simulation studies.

Authors are encouraged to submit full papers presenting new research related
to QoS and communication

performance evaluation of these systems. Submitted papers must not have been
published elsewhere

nor currently be under review by another conference or journal.



We solicit papers that cover a variety of topics including, but not limited
to:

? Performance evaluation of distributed and mobile systems

? Performance evaluation of distributed and web-based systems

? Measurement, analysis and modeling

? Tools and software for performance evaluation

? Simulation and measurements techniques

? QoS for Web services architectures

? Web services composition

? Quantitative analysis and Stochastic models

? Network Protocols design for Web service devices

? Routing optimization and Bandwidth management





Contribution format:

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished work, not currently under
review by another workshop,

conference, or journal. Full papers should be limited to 6 pages (in IEEE
double column format), including text,

figures and references. Two additional pages (i.e. 8 pages in total) may be
allowed but will be charged additional fees.

Authors should use only standard fonts, i.e. Times Roman, Courier, Symbol,
Helvetica or equivalent.

Papers must be submitted electronically via EDAS. All papers will be 
reviewed
by Technical Program Committee members

and other experts active in the field to ensure high quality and 
relevance to
the conference.

The authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be
presented at the conference.

At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the 
conference in
order for that paper

to appear in the IEEE proceedings and to be scheduled for presentation.

The authors of the best papers will be invited to submit a revised and
extended version of their papers

after the workshop to a related special issue of the Journal of 
Computational
Science, Elsevier.
