Thursday 20th - Friday 21st July, 2000
Craiglands Hotel*, Ilkley, West Yorkshire, U.K.
(* The Craiglands is a delightful Victorian country hotel on the edge
of the beautiful Yorkshire Dales and near the famed Ilkley Moor.)
Queueing Network Models (QNMs) with Finite Capacity provide powerful
and realistic tools for performance evaluation and prediction
of discrete flow systems such as computer systems, transportation
networks, communication networks and flexible manufacturing systems.
Over the years a vast amount of progress has been made in the analysis
and applications of QNMs with Finite Capacity and high quality
research work has appeared in diverse scientific journals of learning
and conference proceedings in the fields of Operations Research,
Computer Science, Communication Engineering, Traffic Engineering and
Management/Industrial Engineering. However, there are still many
important and interesting finite capacity queues and QNMs under
various blocking machanisms and synchronisation constraints to be
resolved
such as those involving multiple-job classes, bounds and theoretical
properties as well as application studies to, for example, distributed
computing systems, high-speed networks, highway networks and modern
production systems.
The aim of the Workshop is to continue the tradition established by
the first three international Workshops (1988 & 1992, Raleigh, North
Carolina, U.S.A. and 1995, Ilkley, West Yorkshire, U.K.) in the field
and to contribute to fundamental theory and applications of finite
capacity networks. The Workshop brings together research students and
experts from many diverse areas and thus provide the platform for
exchanging new concepts and ideas and discuss the opportunity for new
research initiatives.

Craiglands Hotel*, Ilkley, West Yorkshire, U.K.
(* The Craiglands is a delightful Victorian country hotel on the edge
of
the beautiful Yorkshire Dales and near the famed Ilkley Moor.)
Over recent years a considerable amount of effort has been devoted,
both in industry and academia, towards the performance evaluation and
prediction of ATM and IP networks. However, there is still a set of
many interesting and important performance research problems to be
addressed and resolved before a global and wide-scale integrated
broadband network infrastructure can be established for the
cost-effective support of multimedia applications. This includes
performance modelling and analysis not only for the capacity planning
and evaluation of existing ATM and IP networks but also for the design
and development of a new generation of emerging networks such as
native
IP networks with efficient flow control schemes, QoS protocols and
powerful gigabit routers as well as native ATM switch architectures to
support direct API, TCP/IP over ATM and integrated new switched
architectures.
The aim of the Eighth IFIP Workshop on ATM & IP Networks (IFIP ATM &
IP
2000) is to contribute to fundamental research in both ATM and IP
technologies and internetworking issues and focus on performance and
reliability modelling and analysis of ATM, IP and ATM over IP
networks.
As in earlier IFIP ATM events, the Workshop provides the friendly and
informal atmosphere in which participants from all over the world
exchange new concepts and ideas and discuss new operational solutions
and research initiatives. In particular, delegates are encouraged to
address
. performance aspects of existing and emerging Internet technologies
and their potential relationship with new ATM switch architectures,
and
. self similarity and multifractal traffic models of long-range (LRD)
versus short-range (SRD) dependence
