The Twelfth IEEE International Workshop on Quality of Service (IWQoS 2004)

June 7-9, 2004
Delta Centre-Ville (downtown Montreal)
Montreal, Canada

Sponsored by IEEE Communications Society and TCCC

IWQoS 2005 will be held in Passau, Germany, June 21 - 23, 2005 (paper deadline: February 22, 2005)

Since 1994, The International Workshop on Quality of Service (IWQoS) has been a very successful series of workshops providing an international forum for the presentation and discussion of new research and ideas on Quality of Service (QoS). Building on the successes of previous workshops, the objective of the workshop is to bring together researchers, developers, and practitioners working in this area to discuss recent and innovative results, and identify future directions and challenges in developing practical systems where predictable and controlled performance is a central requirement. In particular, we look to reconsider and expand the scope of the workshop to include all work related to QoS --- in networking (wired, wireless and sensors networks), operating systems, servers, advanced middleware services (such as grid computing and peer-to-peer systems), and to address relevant technical issues such as availibity, reliability, security, pricing, incentives, as well as performance.

Call for Participation

IWQoS 2004 will bring together researchers from industry and academia to present and discuss the latest advances in Quality of Service provisioning in wireline and wireless networks, servers and applications. The technical program covers a wide range of important topics, including wireless sensor networks, web servers, content distribution, overlay networks, and peer-to-peer applications.

The workshop highlights include:

* Keynote address by Professor Andrew Campbell, Columbia University, on the topic of sensor networks;

* Keynote address by Professor Hui Zhang, Carnegie Mellon University;

* A strong technical program covering a range of important topics, and research projects in Asia, Europe and North America;

* A panel on "New Frontiers in Quality of Service," chaired by Professor Srinivasan Keshav, University of Waterloo.

As well, Montreal, as the "Paris of North America," may also offer unique experiences. The workshop hotel is ideally located in downtown, with direct indoor access to the Underground City of Montreal.

Please consider attending this 2.5-day workshop, and enjoy interactions with other workshop attendees on important research topics, as well as discussions in the panel about the future of Quality of Service research!
