CFP: VPACT 2010: Third International Workshop on Virtualization Performance: Analysis, Characterization and Tools
VPACT 2010 CALL FOR PAPERS Third International Workshop on Virtualization Performance: Analysis, Characterization and Tools March 28, 2010 White Plains, New York (co-located with IEEE ISPASS 2010) The International Workshop on Virtualization Performance: Analysis, Characterization and Tools (VPACT) is a selective venue for reporting and discussing new initial results in the measurement, characterization, analysis, and modeling of the performance of virtualized computer systems, including the tools to support such work. VPACT is interested in results at all scales, including multicore/manycore processors, mobile devices, desktops, servers, data centers, clusters, parallel supercomputers, and distributed virtualized computing environments. VPACT 2010 seeks papers from researchers and practitioners in both academia and industry. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following, in the context of virtualized computer systems: - Performance measurement, characterization, analysis, and modeling - Power measurement characterization, analysis, and modeling - Workload measurement characterization, analysis, and modeling - Benchmarks and benchmarking - Evaluation of hardware virtualization features - Evaluation of virtualization software (VMMs, etc) - Evaluation of virtualization services (Clouds, etc) - Evaluation of scalability in virtualized environments - Evaluation of innovative uses of virtualization - Interaction of virtualization and multicore/manycore architectures - Interaction of virtualization and parallel computing - Interaction of language and OS virtual machines - Tools and techniques Papers should be no more than 10 pages in length, should be formatted according to the ACM SIG Proceedings style (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates), and must be in PDF format. Reviewing is single-blind. Submission instructions are available on the workshop web site, http://vpact.org.
