Communication networks are designed to provide services to their users and do that
while offering an acceptable quality level. For this purpose, network traffic should be
understood and properly controlled so that the desired Quality of Service requirements of
applications and Services are achieved.
The diversity in the characteristics of emerging applications and current network technologies demand
the design and employment of specialized control mechanisms. Moreover, to understand how well these
mechanisms contribute to service provisioning calls for the use of different approaches such as analytical
modeling, simulation, measurement and monitoring.
The aim of the Communications QoS, Reliability and Performance Modeling Symposium is to provide a venue for the discussion of
communications service provisioning, the quality of such provisioning as well as the techniques to understand the
performance of networks designed to provide such services.
