Call for Papers - Submission Extended: February 10th, 2012
The 2nd International IEEE Workshop on Data Center Performance
(DCPerf’12)
June 21st, 2012, Macau, China
http://www.zurich.ibm.com/dcperf12
in conjunction with
The 32nd International IEEE Conference on Distributed Computing
Systems
(ICDCS'12)
http://icdcs-2012.org/
Data centers have become an integral part of the backbone
infrastructure
for
information technology. In particular, they provide a cost efficient
solution
for provisioning a wide range of computing resources in diverse
environments
such as business, scientific, or mobile. Due to the rapid growth of
user-
defined and user-generated programs, applications and content, the
complexity
of deploying and operating data centers is expected to increase.
Considering
the high volume of mixed workloads, the diversity of services
offered, and
the
increasing mobility of users across geographically distributed
areas, the
performance optimization of data centers has become ever more
necessary and
challenging, especially concerning criteria such as scalability,
reliability,
manageability, power efficiency, area density, and operating costs.
As a
result, adaptive and autonomic optimization strategies are essential
in
managing the multi-dimensional complexity of data center
performance.
The goal of this workshop is to promote a community-wide discussion
to find
and identify suitable strategies to enable effective and scalable
data
center
performance optimizations. We are looking for papers that present
new
techniques, introduce new methodologies, propose new research
directions,
or
discuss strategies for resolving open performance problems at all
layers of
a
data center.
Topics of interest include: (but are not limited to)
- Data Center Communication
- Intra/Inter DC Communication
- Network Protocols
- Security
- Data Center Performance
- Power/Reliability
- Performance Evaluation/Modeling
- Data Center Systems
- DC Architectures
- Resource Allocation
- Content Distribution
- Empirical Studies
- Data Center Virtualization
- Hardware Support
- Hypervisors
- Virtualized Storage
- Data Center Applications
- Cloud Computing
- Content Distribution
