*** PLEASE NOTE THE EXTENDED PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE ***
*** In response to the many requests for extensions to the submission deadline, *** *** the HotMetrics deadline has been extended by one week, to April 1st, 9pm PDT. *** Second Workshop on Hot Topics in Measurement & Modeling of Computer Systems Held in conjunction with SIGMETRICS 2009 http://conferences.sigmetrics.org/sigmetrics/2009/ June 15, 2009 Seattle, WA HotMetrics 2009 aims to bring together researchers in the SIGMETRICS and related communities to discuss emerging challenges in performance evaluation, including the impact of incorporating reliability, resilience, manageability, and security. The goal is to identify ?big? and ?hard? problems, and to help develop innovative approaches for solving them. HotMetrics is expected to serve both as a forum for presenting new ideas and for fostering research collaborations between researchers. We seek submissions of position papers that introduce hard research problems, propose new directions of research, advocate non-traditional approaches to old or new ideas, or generate debate and discussion on a variety of broad issues that are of interest and pertinence to SIGMETRICS. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Performance-related issues in the design and development of emerging computer systems and networks. * Tradeoffs and dependencies between performance and other metrics such as cost, energy consumption, reliability, availability, consistency, and security. * Methodologies and frameworks for performance modeling, analysis, optimization and experimentation. * Practical issues arising in system management and performance engineering. Submission Guidelines Papers: Papers must not exceed 5 double-column pages (including figures, tables, and bibliography) in the standard ACM format (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates). Papers must be submitted electronically in printable PDF form, via the EDAS system. Detailed submission instructions will be available closer to the submission deadline. To ensure productive discussions, attendance to the workshop will be limited. In addition to authors of selected papers and the reviewers, we will invite a small number of leading researchers to participate in the debates. After the workshop, the revised papers, reviews, and additional commentaries summarizing the discussions will be published in SIGMETRICS's Performance Evaluation Review to provide wide distribution to the community. Important Dates: April 1, 2009, 9pm PDT: Paper submission (***EXTENDED DEADLINE***) May 6, 2009: Notification of acceptance June 19, 2009: Workshop Organization: Workshop Co-Chairs: Leana Golubchik, USC ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) Arif Merchant, HP Labs ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) Program Committee: Sem Borst, Eindhoven Univ. of Tech, The Netherlands and Bell Labs, Alcatel-Lucent, USA Moises Goldszmidt, Microsoft Research, USA Albert Greenberg, Microsoft Research, USA Joseph Hellerstein, Google, USA Kimberly Keeton, HP Labs, USA Zhen Liu, Nokia Research Center, Beijing, China John C.S.
