EuroSys 2007 2nd European Conference on Computer Systems Lisbon, Portugal March 21-23, 2007 http://www.eurosys.org/2007

Organized by EuroSys, the European Chapter of SIGOPS, in cooperation with ACM SIGOPS (pending)

CALL FOR PAPERS

EuroSys 2007, the European Conference on Computer Systems, seeks papers on all aspects of computer systems, especially ones that cross the divide between areas and address:

+ All areas of operating systems and distributed systems + Systems aspects of: - Programming language support - Databases - Parallel and concurrent computing - Distributed algorithms - Mobile and pervasive computing - Middleware - Sensor nets and tiny devices - Clusters and grids - Novel uses of information technology - Novel user interfaces - Dependable computing - Storage - Management, measurement, monitoring - Security - Real-time and embedded computing - Continuous media + Experience with existing systems + Reproduction of previous results + Negative results + Early ideas

EuroSys 2007 welcomes submissions and attendance from all over the world. Papers may report on: (1) The design, implementation, evaluation and deployment of such systems. (2) New ideas: a session is reserved for "idea" papers, held to less stringent standards of system evaluation. (3) Experience with earlier concepts: a session is reserved for experience papers, for which depth of evaluation is paramount, and novelty less important. Authors may designate their paper for one of these sessions, but need not to.

To encourage diversity, any single author may submit at most two papers. Papers authored by program committee members are held to a significantly higher standard, and their number in the final programme severely restricted. Reviewing is not double blind; feel free to include your affiliation and all references in full.

Papers are reviewed by the programme committee, with the help of outside referees. Papers will be accepted primarily for their impact on the Systems community, and for bridging gaps between different communities. Novelty, clarity of explanation and thorough evaluation are additional criteria. Acceptance may be provisional, subject to further shepherding by a member of the program committee before final acceptance.

The conference does not have a predefined format or a target number of accepted papers. Papers will be accepted or rejected based on their merits, and the conference will be organized in a format that accommodates the number of papers that meet that criterion.

SUBMISSION

Papers should not exceed 14 pages double column including figures and tables in standard ACM format, but preferably using 10pt or larger font on 12pt spacing. Papers that exceed this length will be rejected without consideration of their merit. For detailed submission instructions, please refer to the submission web site.

Simultaneous submission of the same work to multiple venues, submission of previously published work, and plagiarism constitute dishonesty and fraud. Authors uncertain whether their submission meets ACM guidelines should contact the program chair at eurosys2007_pc@eurosys.org.

IMPORTANT DATES

Registration of abstracts : 9 September 2006 (mandatory) Paper submission: 16 September 2006 (hard deadline) Acceptance notification: 4 December 2006 Final papers due: 9 February 2007 Conference: 21-23 March 2007

About SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE

The SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE mailing list is intended to provide a low-volume channel that provides operating systems researchers and practitioners with information about upcoming events or other important announcements. In general, a message containing a group of such announcements will be sent about once per month with the subject line "SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE monthly posting". On rare occasions, announcements of particular interest or urgency will be sent out with a different subject line, starting with "SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE supplemental posting" (for readers who wish to use mail filtering programs). Finally, this mailing list is made available for use by publicity chairs of SIGOPS-sponsored conferences and the SIGOPS officers.
