CALL FOR PAPERS: VISA'10

2nd Workshop on Virtualized Infrastructure Systems and Architectures

In Conjunction with ACM SIGCOMM'10, New Delhi, Aug 30th-Sept 3rd 2010

http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2010/workshops/VISA

Infrastructure virtualization has emerged as an important architecture and experimentation concept for the Internet infrastructure. The global computing and communication infrastructure will encompass (as it does today) a diverse and huge collection of networking, computing and storage resources. Together they need to form a coherent infrastructure and meet our society's requirements for the 21st century.

There are many technical problems to solve to enable Infrastructure virtualization: how to discover, create and manage an infrastructure slice across diverse resources; how does virtualization extend into the data center or to the wireless edge; how to implement virtualization across heterogeneous resources and protocols; how to map an application or service to run on an infrastructure slice; what applications and capabilities are enabled by infrastructure virtualization; how does infrastructure virtualization impact the business models of network operators; and others.

The goal of the workshop is to feature recent research and developments related to infrastructure virtualization; to allow exchange of ideas; and to help build a research and user community to explore and help realize the potential of infrastructure virtualization. We encourage the submission of position papers and of works which encompass the whole infrastructure virtualization (network and storage and computing resources). We solicit previously unpublished work on the following, non exhaustive, list of topics:

TOPICS OF INTEREST

- Infrastructure virtualization architecture;

- Resource allocation to virtual slices;

- Impact of infrastructure virtualization on the data center;

- Management tools for infrastructure virtualization;

- How can infrastructure virtualization enable or support cloud computing;

- Isolation and slice independence in a virtualized infrastructure;

- Integration of the wireless edge into a virtualized network;

- Inter-operability and federation of virtualized infrastructures;

- Cross-layer protocols for virtualized networks;

- Applications and services enabled by virtualized infrastructure; and

- Security issues with virtualized infrastructure.

IMPORTANT DEADLINES

Paper submission deadline: March 25th, 2010

Acceptance notification: April 12th, 2010

Camera ready final submission: May 1st, 2010
