SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
7th International Conference on
ANALYTICAL and STOCHASTIC MODELLING TECHNIQUES
( ASMT )
Hamburg, Germany, September 28-30, 2000
Conference is organized by SCS
(The Society for Computer Simulation International)
as a part of the
ESS'2000 (European Simulation Symposium 2000)
in Hamburg, Germany, September 28-30, 2000.
URL: http://www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/TIS/ESS2000.html
MOTIVATION:
This Conference is a continuation of series of Conferences in
Analytical and Numerical Modeling Techniques held as a part of
European Simulation Conferences.
Taking into account the complexity of real models of complex technical
and information systems, methods of stochastic modelling based on
analytical and approximate results for Markov and semi-Markov
stochastic processes, queueing networks, Petri nets, etc. have
recently become increasingly popular.
In many fields of applications involving performance and reliability
modelling of discrete flow systems, such as computer systems, high
speed communication networks, flexible manufacturing systems and
workflow management systems, it has been widely recognized that
analytical and approximate approaches in stochastic modeling can
successfully complement simulation methods. However, there are still
many important and interesting problems to be resolved such as those
involving stochastic Petri nets and queueing networks with complex
structure, multiple job classes under various blocking mechanisms and
synchronization constrains, problems of self-organization in neuron
networks, etc.
In these and many other models methods based on analytical or
approximate analytical results are more preferable comparatively to
methods of direct stochastic simulation, because in general they save
the time of computation and give possibility to obtain analytical
dependencies of parameters.
Contributions based on analytical and approximate methods in
stochastic modelling as well as applications are encouraged but not
restricted to the following topics:
Topics:
* Techniques and Algorithms:
- Stochastic Models, Markov Models

- Communication Systems (LANs and Distributed
Systems, ATM Switches, Mobile Radio,)
- Workload Modelling and Characterization
- Operating Systems
- Client-Server Systems
- Multimedia Systems
- Measurements and Hybrid Techniques
- Software Performance
