CfP 3rd WOPSSS workshop at ISC High Performance

Third Workshop On Performance and Scalability of Storage Systems (WOPSSS)
Held jointly with ISC, Frankfurt, Germany. June 28th, 2018
http://wopsss.org

** Submission deadline April 20 **
The Workshop On Performance and Scalability of Storage Systems (WOPSSS) aims to present state-of-the-art research, innovative ideas, and experience that focus on the design and implementation of HPC storage systems in both academic and industrial worlds, with a special interest on their performance analysis.
The arrival of new storage technologies and scales unseen in previous practice lead to significant loss of performance predictability. This will leave storage system designers, application developers and the storage community at large in the difficult situation of not being able to precisely detect bottlenecks, evaluate the room for improvement, or estimate the matching of applications with a given storage architecture.
WOPSSS intends to encourage discussion of these issues through submissions of researchers or practitioners from both academic and industrial worlds.

The workshop is held in conjunction with the ISC-HPC during the ISC workshop day. Note that the attendance of ISC workshops requires a workshop pass. See also our last year's workshop web page.
WOPSSS is embedded into a full-day program for I/O that we organize with the team of the IODC the HPC I/O in the Data Center Workshop (https://wr.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/events/2018/iodc) We will build a program with a joint morning session with keynote talks and best papers and then diverge into two independent workshops in the afternoon.

All accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings by Springer.
Extended versions of the best papers will be published in the ACM SIGOPS (http://www.sigops.org/osr.html) journal

** Topics of interest **
included but are not limited to:
- Storage systems modeling and analysis tools
- Feed-back and empirical evaluation of storage systems
- Application I/O characterization
- AI workload and storage performance analysis
- Parallel I/O and storage systems: consistency, caching, replication,
reliability and fault recovery overhead
- Network challenges and storage systems: Scalability, QoS, Partitionability
- Low latency storage systems usability and analysis: memory-only, Flash, NVRAM, Storage Class Memory
- File system design
- Cloud and distributed storage

** Important Dates **
