Virtualization has a central role in modern systems, constituting a key aspect of system development, operation, and management in a wide range of environments, from mobile computing devices to large-scale data centers. Virtualization techniques are applied at many interfaces, from hardware, to system calls of the operating system, to high-level language runtimes, to cloud management stacks. While these approaches differ dramatically in implementation, they target similar benefits and often must tackle similar or related challenges.

VEE'14, the 10th ACM SIGPLAN/SIGOPS International Conference on Virtual Execution Environments, brings together researchers across the many applications of virtualization in today's systems. We invite authors to submit original papers related to virtualization across all layers of the software stack down to the microarchitectural level. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

virtualization support for programs and programmers;
architecture support for virtualization;
operating system support for virtualization;
compiler and programming language support for virtualization;
runtime system support for virtualization;
virtual I/O, storage, and networking;
memory management;
management technologies for virtual environments;
performance analysis and debugging for virtual environments; and
virtualization technologies applied to specific problem domains such as cloud, HPC, realtime, power management, and security.

As usual (since 2008), VEE 2014 is be co-located with ASPLOS 2014, which will take place in Salt Lake City, UT. VEE'14 will be held concurrently with the ASPLOS'14 workshops, during March 1-2, 2014. Registration for VEE'14 is available as an option within the ASPLOS'14 online registration system. Hotel arrangements can likewise be made according to the directions on the ASPLOS'14 page. VEE'14 attendees are permitted to attend all ASPLOS'14 workshops.
