The goal of this workshop is to bring together academic and industry researchers and practitioners from both the networking and the simulation communities to discuss current and future trends in simulation techniques, models and practices for the Future Internet and to foster interdisciplinary collaborative research in this area. The workshop values both theoretical and practical research contributions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Emerging access technologies (Wi-Max, 3.5G, Wireless Mesh Networks, 802.11x, etc.)
* Disruptive network paradigms (bio-inspired, autonomic, opportunistic networking, etc.)
* Multi-layer network architectures
* Cross-layer simulation
* Hybrid Simulation
* End-to-end simulation of heterogeneous, mobile and multi-domain networks
* Fluid-flow simulation for assessing QoS in large scale networks
* New and emerging services and applications
* QoS negotiation, service chain negotiation and Service Level Agreements
* QoS components (scheduling algorithms, admission control schemes, QoS routing and traffic engineering schemes, etc.)
* Scalability analysis
* Traffic modeling
* Tradeoffs between Security and QoS
* QoS applications in extreme situation (e.g. in a network under attack or catastrophes)

We solicit submission of manuscripts that present original research results, not previously published nor currently under review by another conference or journal. All submitted papers will go through a rigorous peer review process. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and correctness by the technical program committee. Submission implies the willingness of at least one author to attend the workshop and present the paper. Accepted papers will be printed in the proceedings and made available online.

Submission instructions

Authors are invited to submit PDF versions of full papers of up to 8 pages in ACM conference proceedings format, i.e. two-column pages in a font no smaller than 10-points. Submissions will be handled electronically through EasyChair.
