The 13th Annual Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games (NetGames
2014) will be held at Nagoya Institute of Technology, Nagoya, Japan on
December 4th-5th, 2014. NetGames brings together researchers and
practitioners from academia and industry across the globe to present their
latest research on the challenges of today's networked games, and to
further understand the requirements and explore the possibilities of future
generations of networked games. NetGames will also have a keynote and panel
discussions with participants (or invited talks) from both academia and
industry. Submissions are solicited on all aspects of networked games,
including (but not limited to):

- Scalability, cloud support, client-server, P2P, and mobile architectures
- Efficient message distribution and network protocol design
- Latency issues and lag compensation techniques
- Network traffic measurement and modeling
- System benchmarking, performance evaluation, and provisioning
- Operating system enhancements, service platforms, and middleware
- Massively Multiplayer Online Gaming (MMOG)
- Multiplayer usability and user behavior studies
- Personal communications and conferencing in games
- Mobile games, resource-constrained systems, and context-based adaptation
- Quality of service, quality of experience, and system/content adaptation
- Dynamic and user-generated content authoring and management
- Security, authentication, accounting and digital rights management
- Cheat detection and prevention
- Social networking in multiplayer games
- Data analytics and visualization support for game research

NetGames 2014 welcomes full papers to be presented in the single-track
program, extended abstracts reporting work-in-progress to be presented with
a poster during the poster and demo session, and demos showing original
research prototypes.

Reviews will be single-blind; authors must include their names and
affiliations on the first page. Papers should not be under review at
another venue nor previously published elsewhere. Submission of a paper for
review will be considered your agreement that at least one author will
register and attend the workshop if your paper is accepted.
Papers accepted for NetGames 2014 will be included in the Workshop
Proceedings, the ACM Digital Library, and IEEE XPlore, with the exception
that IEEE reserves the right to exclude any paper from distribution after
the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore and the ACM Digital Library)
if the paper is not presented at the conference.
