FYI: PDSW'10 paper submissions are due in 4 weeks:

5th Petascale Data Storage Workshop
Call for papers & posters
Monday, November 15, 2010
9:00am - 5:30pm
http://www.pdsi-scidac.org/events/PDSW10/

Held in conjunction with SC10 at New Orleans, LA

Peta- and exascale computing infrastructures make unprecedented demands on information storage capacity, performance, concurrency, reliability, availability, and manageability. This one-day workshop focuses on the data storage problems and emerging solutions found in peta- and exascale scientific computing environments, with special attention to issues in which community collaboration can be crucial, problem identification, workload capture, solution interoperability, standards with community buy-in, and shared tools. This workshop seeks contributions on relevant topics, including but not limited to: performance and benchmarking results and tools, failure tolerance problems and solutions, APIs for high performance features, parallel file systems, high bandwidth storage architectures, wide area file systems, metadata intensive workloads, autonomics for HPC storage, virtualization for storage systems, archival storage advances, resource management innovations.

Papers (extended abstract in pdf format) due: Friday, September 17, 2010, 11:59 p.m. PDT
Notification: Monday, October 11, 2010
Camera-ready due: Monday, November 8, 2010
Softcopy and slides due: Friday, Nov. 12, 2010 BEFORE the workshop

Paper Submission Details:
The petascale data storage workshop holds a peer reviewed competitive process for selecting extended abstracts and short papers. Submit a not previously published extended abstract of up to 5 pages, not less than 10 point font, in a PDF file as instructed on the workshop web site. Submitted papers will be reviewed under the supervision of the workshop program committee. Submissions should indicate authors and affiliations. Selected papers and associated talks will be made available on the workshop web site. Selected final papers must not be longer than 5 pages. The workshop proceedings will be published in association with SC10 in the IEEE digital library and talk slides will be made available on the workshop web site.

Posters due: Monday, November 8, 2010
Notification: Wednesday, November 10, 2010

Poster Submission Details:
The PDSW program committee highly encourages authors of accepted papers to present posters of their work. Submissions for technical poster presentation will be considered if they are marked as such and include title and author list and a short abstract. Further specifications for poster production will be available on the workshop web site.
