SYSTOR 2012 - CFP - http://systor.org/2012
In cooperation with ACM (pending), IEEE, and USENIX

On behalf of the 2012 Annual International Systems and 
Storage
Conference (SYSTOR 2012), we invite you to submit original 
and innovative papers. The conference will take place in 
June 4-6, 2012 Haifa, Israel; it is held in cooperation 
with ACM (pending), IEEE, and USENIX.

SYSTOR has a broad scope, promoting experimental and 
practical computer systems research encompassing the 
following topics:

   * operating systems, computer architecture, and their 
interaction
   * distributed, parallel, and cloud systems
   * networking, mobile, wireless, peer-to-peer, and 
sensor systems
   * runtime systems, compilers, and programming languages
   * energy/power management
   * file and storage systems
   * security, privacy, and trust
   * virtualization
   * embedded and realtime systems
   * fault tolerance, reliability, and availability
   * deployment, usage, and experience
   * performance evaluation and workload characterization

SYSTOR attempts to combine high-quality international 
systems research
of practical nature with interactions between the relevant 
industry
and academia communities. We therefore solicit paper 
submissions in
four separate tracks:

   * full research papers
   * short research papers
   * highlight papers (a small number of exciting research 
results
       accepted to a recent top-tier systems conference or 
journal;
       accepted submissions will not be published in the 
proceedings)
   * industry papers (describing the technologies behind 
real systems or
       products and the; authors of accepted paper decide 
if they
       would be included in the conference proceedings)

Proceedings including all (non-highlight) accepted papers 
will be
published by ACM. See more details at the conference web 
site
[http://systor.org/2012]. SYSTOR 2012 will host 
distinguished keynote
speakers, a posters session, and several social events at 
the
conference.
