Objective

The 6th International Conference on Queueing Theory and Network Applications (QTNA2011) will be held in Seoul, Korea on Aug. 23-26, 2011. The conference is a continuation of the series of successful conferences - QTNA2006 (Korea), QTNA2007 (Japan), QTNA2008 (Taiwan), QTNA2009 (Singapore), and QTNA2010 (China). QTNA2011 is a conference for the dissemination of state-of-the-art research on queueing theory and its applications in networks and related issues. The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers, scientists and practitioners from the world to identify important and challenging problems and issues in the area of queueing theory and network applications and work together to discover feasible solutions for these problems. The conference will cover all the key topics in queueing theory, communication networks and other related areas. It will provide an in-depth representation of theory and practice in these areas. Each submission should promote queueing theory or related techniques, and demonstrate a relationship between theory and its application; any topic that satisfies these requirements would be of interest.
