<h2>Call for papers</h2>
<p>The DMTF Academic Alliance announces the creation of the third
workshop dedicated to academic research on standards and new
technologies for systems and virtualization management. This event
comes in addition to the technical and developers' events organized for
several years by the DMTF, and will take place on September 22, 23 in
Wuhan, China.</p>
<p>The primary theme of SVM 2009 will be "Systems and Virtualization
Management: Standards and the Cloud". With the advent and increasing
popularity of Cloud Computing, systems management and virtualization
management technology has taken on increasing importance. The goal of
SVM 2009 is to illuminate related standards and research issues,
covering areas such as: what are the implications of standards for
virtualization in Cloud Computing, what advances in information models
and protocols aid in managing Clouds, what new problems will we incur
when managing Cloud offerings and services, and how management itself
might benefit from virtualization and the Cloud. Submissions on topics
related to managing Clouds, virtualization of distributed
resources/services and work in management standardization are thus
particularly encouraged.</p>
<p>Topics of interest include but are not limited to:</p>

<li>Virtualization</li>
