IBM Research - Haifa and the IBM Systems and Technology Group Lab in
Israel, in collaboration with the Caesarea Rothschild Institute (CRI) at
the University of Haifa are organizing SYSTOR 2010, a successor to the
highly successful SYSTOR conferences on systems and storage held in the
past at IBM Research - Haifa. The goal of the conference is to promote
systems research and foster stronger ties between the Israeli and worldwide
systems research communities and industry. We have a strong program of 18
refereed papers, two keynote talks, and a panel on the future of cloud
computing.

Full program details are available at
https://www.research.ibm.com/haifa/conferences/systor2010/program.shtml
The conference will also have a poster session highlighting works in
progress. International participation is encouraged.

Student Activities

As part of the conference, students will have the opportunity to interact
with senior researchers and obtain feedback on their research. To promote
such interactions, we will have a poster session where students present
their work. We will also have a lunch where members of the program
committee and IBM researchers will be matched with students for more
intensive interaction.

Venue and Social Event

The conference will be held in the lovely city of Haifa, which overlooks
the Mediterranean Sea, and is home to Jews, Muslims, Christians, and
Baha’is. SYSTOR 2010 excursions will include trips and museum tours
focusing on the historical periods of the Holy Land via special visits to
the University of Haifa's Hecht Museum, the old city of Nazareth, and the
Sea of Galilee. The conference will take place at IBM Research - Haifa and
the University of Haifa.
