=====================================================================
The First International Workshop on Energy Consumption and Reliability of Storage Systems (ERSS 2011) Held in conjunction with the International Green Computing Conference - IGCC 2011 July 25, 2011, Orlando, Florida, USA http://research.cs.vt.edu/dssl/wer/ ===================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS ------------------------------- Large-scale computing infrastructures make unprecedented demands on information storage capacity, performance, energy consumption, reliability, and manageability. The increasing use of computers for saving valuable data imposes stringent energy consumption and reliability constraints on storage systems. As the disk capacity improves, advanced techniques are being employed to proactively conserve energy while improving the reliability of the storage systems. To this end, the Workshop on Energy Consumption and Reliability of Storage Systems is being organized to bring together researchers and practitioners to explore the challenges, opportunities, and approaches of energy-aware and reliable storage systems. This workshop focuses on the data storage problems and emerging solutions found in large-scale scientific and enterprise computing environments, with special attention to the issues concerning energy consumption and reliability of the storage systems. SUBMISSIONS ------------------------------- We solicit papers on all aspects of energy efficient and reliable storage systems. The topics include (but are not limited to): * Cloud storage system. * Cluster and data center storage system. * Energy efficient storage system. * Reliable storage system. * Algorithms for energy and reliability-aware storage. * Models for collective optimization of energy and reliability. * Monitoring tools for energy and/or reliability-aware storage. * Experiences with real storage systems concerning energy and reliability. * Reliability and energy efficiency in mobile storage systems. * Factors affecting energy and/or reliability. The workshop invites authors to submit papers describing original, unpublished, work in all areas of energy consumption and reliability storage systems that is not concurrently under review elsewhere. All submissions will be reviewed by the Program Committee. The papers should not exceed five single-spaced pages (IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Manuscripts style: two columns, 11-point fonts, IEEE 8.5 x 11 inch) including everything, e.g., abstract, research description, figures, tables, and references. Each paper will be refereed by independent reviewers. Submission is a definite commitment for at least one of the authors to register to attend IGCC (workshops are included) and present the paper if it is accepted. The workshop proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society along with the IGCC conference proceedings. IMPORTANT DATES ------------------------------- * Submission deadline: April 6, 2011, 11:59 PDT * Author Notification: May 6, 2011 * Camera-ready deadline: June 6, 2011 WORKSHOP CHAIRS ------------------------------- Ali R.
