                    4–6 May 2009
                    Haifa, Israel


                        Call for Papers
IBM Haifa Research Lab and IBM Systems and Technology Group Lab, in collaboration with Israeli academia, are organizing SYSTOR 2009, a successor to the highly successful workshops on systems and storage held at the IBM Haifa Research Lab.  The goal of the conference is to promote systems research and to foster stronger ties between the Israeli and worldwide systems research communities and industry.


    2009 IEEE International Conference on Cluster Computing
SYSTOR 2009 will be a three-day conference combining academic and industrial sessions. Each day will include a keynote by a well-known international researcher on one of the conference topics. In addition, we are planning special activities for graduate students.
                        (Cluster 2009)


                http://www.cluster2009.org/
Submissions of a practical and experimental nature are solicited for the academic and industrial sessions. The conference is open to all systems research topics, including (but not limited to):


                  29 August - 4 September 2009
* General computer systems issues in operating systems, architecture, memory hierarchy, compilation, and embedded systems
* Distributed systems such as peer-to-peer systems, sensor networks, and overlays, fault tolerance, and resource allocation
* Storage systems issues related to long term preservation, archival storage, internet-scale storage, and replication and consistency
* Cross-cutting issues such as workload modeling, performance metrics, power consumption, security, usability, and experience with real systems and failures


                  New Orleans, Louisiana, USA
In particular, we would like to emphasize the following themes:


**********************************************************************
* Virtualization infrastructure and virtualization-aware system design
* Multi-core architectures and the operating system facilities and programming environments that use them
* Power consumption and management
* Managing the explosive growth in storage and the increasing need to store, find and manage data for long periods


Cluster 2009 welcomes paper and poster submissions on innovative work from
