Performance Evaluation functions as a leading journal in the area of modeling, measurement, and evaluation of performance aspects of computing and communication systems. As such, it aims to present a balanced and complete view of the entire Performance Evaluation profession. Hence, the journal is interested in papers that focus on one or more of the following dimensions:Define new performance evaluation tools, including measurement and monitoring tools as well as modeling and analytic techniquesProvide new insights into the performance of computing and communication systemsIntroduce new application areas where performance evaluation tools can play an important role and creative new uses for performance evaluation tools.More specifically, common application areas of interest include the performance of:Resource allocation and control methods and algorithms (e.g. routing and flow control in networks, bandwidth allocation, processor scheduling, memory management)System architecture, design and implementationCognitive radioVANETsSocial networks and mediaEnergy efficient ICTEnergy harvestingData centersData centric networksSystem reliabilitySystem tuning and capacity planningWireless and sensor networksAutonomic and self-organizing systemsEmbedded systemsNetwork scienceFurther, common performance evaluation tools of interest include:queueing theoryscheduling theorysimulation methodsdata analysismeasurement techniques (e.g. software and hardware monitors) and workload characterizationstochastic geometrylarge deviationsmean-field theorygame theory and equilibrium analysisNote that the above lists are not all inclusive or restrictive and submissions with creative applications of performance evaluation tools outside of those above and/or applications outside of those above are also welcome.A variety of types of submissions are possible, including: original work, tutorials & surveys, news items and short communications.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
