The
2009 International Conference on Telecommunication Systems - Modeling and
Analysis will be held at the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA on July
9-12, 2009. The conference will build on the tradition of the earlier conferences.
The general idea is to encourage informal interaction and exchanges of ideas by
limiting the number of participants, concentrating on a few topics, and by
presenting new problems and problem areas. The objective is to advance the
state of the modeling and analysis in telecommunications by stimulating
research activity on new and important problems.
The
conference will be divided into segments with each segment devoted to a
specific topic. This will allow for little conflict between segments. Papers
will be screened by the Program
Committee to ensure the quality of presentations. Abstracts and papers
should be submitted directly to the Conference Chairman who will handle
its review. Social and cultural activities will be included in the 2009 agenda.
The organizing committee is planning special events for this conference. The
conference site is the Naval Postgraduate School at Monterey, CA.
The Program Committee is open to any ideas you might
have regarding additional topics or format of the conference. The
intention is, to limit the number of parallel sessions to three. The
conference is scheduled over a weekend to reduce teaching conflicts for
academic participants and to enable participants to take advantage of weekend
hotel and airfare rates and of events that take place in the Monterey area.
Potential
participants should send by March 15, 2009 a paper to the conference general
chair. The technical program committee will evaluate the papers, and a decision
will be sent to the authors by April 1, 2009 with instructions for the final
version of the paper, which is due by June 1, 2009. Full paper contributions
will be considered for publication in the Telecommunication Systems
Journal. Conference participants will be provided with the conference
proceedings (a collection of papers presented at the conference)
