ValueTools 2013

7th International Conference on Performance Evaluation Methodologies and Tools

http://valuetools.org/2013

10-12 December, 2013
Torino, Italy

ValueTools is on methodologies and practices in modeling, performance evaluation and optimization of complex systems,
gathering researchers from different communities, such as Computer Science, Networks and Telecommunications, Operations
Research, Optimization, Control Theory and Manufacturing.

ValueTools 2013 solicits previously unpublished contributions that propose new performance evaluation methodologies and new
tools.

Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library.

A special issue in the the Performance Evaluation Journal is planned.

Papers can also be published in EAI Transactions on Algorithms Engineering.
