Dear Colleagues,

We would like to take the opportunity to remind you about the Call for
Papers for the Workshop on Emerging Data Storage Technologies at ICC 2012.
The submission deadline is November 30, 2011. The ICC 2012 conference will
be held in Ottawa, Canada from June 10 to 15, 2012. Details can also be
found at the workshop webpage (http://committees.comsoc.org/spfs/icc2012/)
and at our Data Storage Technical Committee website
(http://committees.comsoc.org/spfs/newevent.html)

Manuscripts should be submitted online at http://edas.info/N11455. In
addition to submitting your manuscript online please forward a copy to
Warren Gross (warren.gross at mcgill.ca).

Thank you all for supporting the Data Storage Technical Committee!

Best regards,

IEEE Data Storage Technical Committee

   Call for Papers
   Workshop on Emerging Data Storage Technologies
   IEEE ICC 2012, Ottawa, Canada, June 10-15, 2012

   Paper Submission: 30 November 2011

   Workshop website: http://committees.comsoc.org/spfs/icc2012/

Manuscripts should be submitted online at http://edas.info/N11455. In
addition to submitting your manuscript online please forward a copy to
Warren Gross (warren.gross at mcgill.ca).

   Scope and Motivation

Coding and Signal Processing form critical components of modern data storage
systems. Recent advances in emerging data storage technologies, such as
non-volatile memories (NVM), bit-patterned media recording (BPMR) and
heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) transform the storage industry.  On
the system level, massive distributed storage networks, data centers and
cloud storage systems are currently adopting erasure coding techniques for
higher storage efficiency.  This workshop seeks to bring academia and
industry efforts closer and develop better technologies and practices for
future storage architectures.

Invited and contributed technical papers to this workshop are to follow the
same format and length requirements (double-column, 10 point font, 5 pages)
as ICC 2012. Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and included
in the IEEE digital library.

Main Topics of Interest: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

1.  Coding, signal processing, and information theoretic aspects of
ultra-high density magnetic recording. New concepts for BPMR and HAMR

2.  Non-volatile memories: modeling and characterization of NVM, such as
flash, phase change RAM (PCRAM), and spin-transfer torque RAM (STT-MRAM).
Endurance coding and wear-leveling. System-on-chip (SOC) architecture and
optimization

3. Data Centers and distributed storage networks. Coding techniques in cloud
storage, distributed storage networks and data centers.  Storage management
and inter-operability,  storage security.

4. Storage Applications. Data compression for digital storage, including
audio and video Signal processing and coding methods for object based
storage systems. Data security for storage systems
