<br>
This is a reminder that submissions to the following MSST2008 workshops are due May 30, 2008:<br>
<br>
• CMPD'08, Workshop on Computing with Massive and Persistent Data. Chairs: Maya Gokhale and Steve Louis. Emerging hardware technologies such as low latency non-volatile memory and specialized co-processors offer new opportunities to accelerate data and compute intensive applications. The CMPD'08 workshop will assemble a broad range of researchers and practitioners to establish a community that crosses traditional boundaries separating hardware, system software, and applications. Areas of interest include disk-scale non-volatile memory devices, hardware co-processor approaches for computing with massive data sets, file systems and other system software for massive data sets, novel programming models for data-intensive applications, and applications using massive and persistent data. Prospective authors should submit an abstract of their current work or a short position paper not to exceed 4 single-spaced pages, to: cmpd08-<a href="mailto:workshop@llnl.gov" target="_blank">workshop@llnl.gov</a>, by May 30, 2008. More information is available here: <a href="https://computation.llnl.gov/home/workshops/cmpd08/" target="_blank">https://computation.llnl.gov/home/workshops/cmpd08/</a><br>
<br>
• DAPS'08, Workshop on Digital Archive Preservation and Sustainability. Chair: Ann Kerr. Long term preservation requires the ability to make assertions about governance, sustainability, and trustworthiness. These concerns involve evolution of the community policies under which records are preserved, institutional commitment towards maintaining the preservation environment, and continued verification of the authenticity and integrity of records. As archives grow to the scale of hundreds of petabytes, these assertions become incompatible. This workshop will explore the inherent tensions in minimizing cost while ensuring sustainability, increasing governance controls while collection sizes grow, and improving integrity and authenticity assertions as the number of records increases. It will also explore existing and emerging digital preservation requirements and evolution of architectures. Prospective participants should submit an abstract of their current work or a short position paper not to exceed 4 single-spaced pages, to: <a href="mailto:chair@san.rr.com" target="_blank">chair@san.rr.com</a>, by May 30, 2008.

<br>
• KMS2008, IEEE Key Management Summit. Chair: Matt Ball. With recent legislation, such as California's SB 1386 or Sarbanes-Oxley, companies now have to publicly disclose when they lose unencrypted personal data. To meet this new need for encryption, many companies have developed solutions that encrypt data on hard disks and tape cartridges. The problem is that these data storage vendors need a solution for managing the cryptographic keys that protect the encrypted data. KMS2008 will bring together the top companies that develop cryptographic key management for storage devices with the standards organizations that make interoperability possible. The summit aims to provide clarity to the key management by showing how existing products and standards organizations address the problem of interoperability and security. Prospective speakers should submit an abstract to: <a href="mailto:chair@keymanagementsummit.com" target="_blank">chair@keymanagementsummit.com</a>, by May 30, 2008. Relevant topics include: key management standards, use-cases, solutions, and government requirements.

• SISW 2008, 5th IEEE International Security In Storage Workshop. Chair: Jim Hughes. Protecting intellectual property, privacy, health records, and military secrets when media or devices are lost, stolen, or captured is critical to information owners. But meeting the challenge of protecting stored information critical to individuals, corporations, and governments is difficult, given the continually changing uses of storage, and the exposure of storage media to adverse conditions. SISW serves as an open forum for discussion of storage threats, technologies, methodologies, and deployment, and disseminates new research by bringing together researchers and practitioners from both government and civilian areas. Prospective participants should submit either a full paper (not to exceed 12 single-spaced pages) for a paper presentation to be published in the proceedings, or a short abstract suggesting alternative presentation forms, discussion items, or panel topics to: <a href="mailto:james.hughes@sun.com" target="_blank">james.hughes@sun.com</a>, by May 30, 2008.
