性能評估是計算機和通信系統性能方面的建模、測量和評估領域的主要期刊。因此，它旨在呈現一個平衡和完整的觀點，整個績效評估行業。因此，該雜志對關注以下一個或多個維度的論文感興趣：定義新的績效評估工具，包括測量和監控工具以及建模和分析技術提供對計算和通信系統性能的新見解介紹新的應用領域，其中性能評估工具可以發揮重要作用和創造性的新用途的性能評估工具。更具體地說，常見的應用領域包括：資源分配和控制方法和算法（例如網絡中的路由和流控制、帶寬分配、處理器調度、內存管理）系統架構、設計和實現認知無線電瓦內特社交網絡和媒體節能ICT能量采集數據中心以數據為中心的網絡系統可靠性系統調整和容量規劃無線和傳感器網絡自主和自組織系統嵌入式系統網絡科學此外，常用的績效評估工具包括：排隊論調度理論模擬方法數據分析測量技術（如軟件和硬件監視器）和工作負載特性隨機幾何大偏差平均場理論博弈論與均衡分析請注意，上述清單并非全部包含或限制性的，也歡迎提交具有創造性的績效評估工具應用于上述工具之外和/或上述工具之外的應用。各種類型的提交是可能的，包括：原創作品，教程和調查，新聞項目和簡短的溝通。

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.
