Best selected papers from the session will be invited to be published (extended versions) in two journals with topics on Data Centers:
The Journal of Supercomputing (indexed as JCR) http://www.springer.com/computer/swe/journal/11227)

SCOPE AND TOPICS
This session invites prospective authors to submit articles from the academy and industry for sharing scientific and practice knowledge on the engineering and management of Data Centers Systems (DCS). DCS are considered mission-critical organizational assets whose availability, performance, power efficiency, security, continuity, and overall effectiveness must be guaranteed in order to avoid critical disruptions on IT-based business services. Main categories of asked topics include, but not limited to, planning-design, implementation and operation-control of DCS. Emergent topics like Green DCS, ITSM process frameworks (e.g. ITIL, ISO/IEC 2000), DevOps, IaaS, and Software-Defined Data Centers are also welcome. In summary, articles from the academy and industry taking DCS as core entity to be addressed are asked. A sample of topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following ones:
Foundations on data centers Fundamental concepts Overview of data centers Evolution of data centers Types of data centers (business vs scientific; centralized vs distributed, tiers I, II, III or IV; private vs cloud vs ISP) Organizational charts for data centers Taxonomies of services provided and consumed in data centers The data center as a service system Value of data centers
Data centers engineering General and integrative design methodologies for data centers Specific design methods for data center dimensions (e.g. for space layout, for power design, for cooling design, etc) Design tools applied to data centers Design simulation tools applied to data centers Data center architecture design Data center design and ICT architecture design Data center Data centers and virtualization approaches Data centers and ITSM tools (commercial ones) Data centers and ITSM tools (open source ones)cases of Data centers equipment benchmarks Data centers software systems benchmarks Data centers performance simulation methods Data centers reliability simulation methods
Data centers management Data centers selection methods Data centers planning methods Data centers risk management methods Data centers implementation methods Data centers operation and control methods Data centers security methods and approaches Data centers disaster recovery planning methods Data centers capacity planning methods Data centers performance evaluation methods Data centers retirement or re-allocation methods Data centers maturity models Data centers metrics (PUE, DCiE, DCP, DCeP, among others) Data centers servers metrics (SPECvirt_sc2013, SPEC CPU2006, SPECweb2009, SPECmail2009, etc) Data centers dashboards and others DMSS Data centers and automation services Data centers backup methods and approaches Data centers standards (TIA 942, Uptime Institute Framework, IEEE 493, etc) Data centers certifications Data center education in undergraduate and graduate programs Data centers financial methods Data centers equipment selection and evaluation methods Human resource management in data centers Data centers end-user satisfaction and quality of service surveys Data centers and ITSM frameworks (ITIL, CobIT, CMMI-SVC, MOF 4, ITUP, ISO 20K)
Data centers emergent topics, challenges and trends Green data centers design approaches DevOps methods Cloud computing architectures for data centers Centralized vs distributed data centers Software-defined data center (SDDC) Economic value of data centers Economic models for allocation of data centers Data centers for small organizations Corporative data centers challenges and trends Analytics for data centers Data centers trends Data centers challenges
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Type of Submissions/Papers for this session: Full/Regular Research Papers (maximum of 7 pages): Regular Research Papers should provide detail original research contributions. They must report new research results that represent a contribution to the field; sufficient details and support for the results and conclusions should also be provided. The work presented in regular papers are expected to be at a stage of maturity that with minor advances can be published as journal papers. Short Research Papers (maximum of 4 pages): Short Research Papers report on ongoing research projects. They should provide overall research methodologies with some results. The work presented in short papers are expected to be at a stage of maturity that with further advances can be published as regular papers.
Format guidelines for submissions: These instructions are comparable to the standard template for IEEE typesetting format. Papers must be prepared in two-column format. Word Template at: http://american-cse.org/download/csce_word_template.doc The first page of the paper should include the following elements: o Title of the paper o Name, affiliation, postal address, and email address of each author (identify the name of the Contact Author) o Abstract (between 100 and 120 words) o A maximum of 5 topical keywords that would best represent the work described in the paper o Write the type of the submission as "Regular Research Paper", "Short Research Paper", or "Extended Abstract/Poster Paper". Submissions must be sent directly to session chairs at: mmora@correo.uaa.mx with copy to jorge.marx.gomez@uni-oldenburg.de
Review process: Each paper will be PEER-REVIEWED by two experts in the field for originality, significance, clarity, impact, and soundness. In cases of contradictory recommendations, session chairs will make the final decision (accept/reject).
PUBLICATION AND INDEXING
The proceedings will be published in printed conference books (ISBN), imprinted by the American Council on Science and Education, and distributed/published by CSREA (Computer Science Research, Education, and Applications Press). The proceedings will also be made available online. The printed proceedings/books will be available for distribution on site at the conference. The books will be indexed in science databases, including EBSCO (www.ebsco.com), one of the largest subject index systems, and others. ACM Digital Library is also including the titles into its database) as well as ProQuest indexing database and others.
In addition to the above, we have arranged two new book series (multiple books in each series); one with Elsevier publishers (Emerging Trends in Computer Science and Applied Computing) and another with Springer publishers (Transactions of Computational Science and Computational Intelligence). After the conference (the process may take 12 to 18 months), a significant number of authors of accepted papers of our congress, will be given the opportunity to submit the extended version of their papers for publication consideration in these books. We anticipate having between 10 and 15 books a year in each of these book series projects. Each book in each series will be subject to Elsevier and Springer science indexing products (which includes: Scopus, www.info.scopus.com; SCI Compendex, Engineering Village, www.ei.org; EMBASE, www.info.embase.com; and others).
Best selected papers from the session will be invited to be published (extended versions) in two journals with topics on Data Centers Topics:
The Journal of Supercomputing http://www.springer.com/computer/swe/journal/11227)
International Journal of Information Technology and Systems http://www.igi-global.com/journal/international-journal-information-technolo...
