5th USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation

This page contains details on the NSDI '08 conference. Further details are available at http://www.usenix.org/nsdi08/cfpa.

Description

NSDI focuses on the design principles and practical evaluation of large-scale networked and distributed systems. Systems as diverse as Internet routing, peer-to-peer and overlay networks, sensor networks, Web-based systems, and measurement infrastructures share a set of common challenges. Progress in any of these areas requires a deep understanding of how researchers are addressing the challenges of large-scale systems in other contexts. Our goal is to bring together researchers from across the networking and systems community--including communication, distributed systems, and operating systems--to foster a broad approach to addressing our common research challenges. The Program Committee seeks a broad variety of work that furthers the knowledge and understanding of the networked systems community as a whole, continues a significant research dialog, or pushes the architectural boundaries of large-scale network services. We solicit papers describing original and previously unpublished research. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Novel architectures for communications systems * Mobility and wireless system architecture challenges * Sensor networking and other energy-constrained systems * Novel operating system support for networked systems * Virtualization and resource management for networked systems * Highly available and reliable networked systems * Security and resilience of networked systems * Overlays and peer-to-peer systems * Distributed storage, caching, and query processing * Federated, autonomous, and self-configuring networked systems * Large-scale networked systems testbeds, design, and evaluation * Network measurements, workload, and topology characterization * Managing, debugging, and diagnosing problems in networked systems * Practical protocols and algorithms for networked systems * Application experiences based on networked systems For more information and submission guidelines, please visit http://www.usenix.org/nsdi08/cfpa
