CALL FOR PAPERS (HPCVirt 2007)
Workshop on System-level Virtualization for High Performance Computing
(HPCVirt 2007)
held in conjunction with EuroSys 2007, the European Conference on Computer
Systems.
==========================================================================
Date: 20 March 2007, Lisbon, Portugal.

The emergence of virtualization enabled hardware, such as the latest
generation AMD and Intel processors, has raised significant interest in the
High Performance Computing (HPC) community. In particular, system-level
virtualization provides an opportunity to advance the design and development
of operating systems, programming environments, administration practices, and
resource management tools. This leads to some potential research topics for
HPC, such as failure tolerance, system management, and solutions for
application porting to new HPC platforms.
The workshop on System-level Virtualization for HPC (HPCVirt 2007) is intended
to be a forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences on the use of
virtualization technologies for HPC, the challenges and opportunities offered
by the development of system-level virtualization solutions themselves, as
well as case studies in the application of system-level virtualization in
HPC.
The workshop program will include presentations of peer-reviewed papers as
well as a panel with participants from research/academia and industry.
HPCVirt topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* system-level virtualization solutions for HPC,
* high-availability based on system-level virtualization mechanisms for HPC,
* fault tolerance mechanisms based on system-level virtualization mechanisms
for HPC,
* system administration and management for virtualized environments for HPC,
* resource management for HPC in virtualized environments,
* performance and evaluation of virtualization in HPC,
* case studies of virtualization enabled hardware,
* virtualized I/O and storage.
Paper Submission
Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished work that exposes a new
problem, advocates a specific solution, or reports on actual experience.
Papers should be submitted as full-length 8 pages double column including
figures and tables in standard ACM format. Papers that exceed this length
will be rejected without consideration of their merit.
Paper submission instructions will be placed on the workshop web page at
http://www.csm.ornl.gov/srt/hpcvirt07/.
Presentations will be invited based on the originality, technical merit, and
topical relevance of their submissions.
