[Khin Mi Mi Aung (DSI)]

Storage System, Hard Disk and Solid State Technologies Summit
[Description: http://www.dsi.a-star.edu.sg/events/microsite/Documents/summitbanner.jpg]
Call for papers

The Inaugural Storage System, Hard Disk and Solid State Technologies Summit will be held in conjunction with the APMRC 2012 on November 1, 2012. It serves as an international forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to share and discuss cutting-edge research on storage devices and systems.


Topics

Papers that illustrate novel ideas, real system experiences, as well as detailed analyses and evaluations, are welcome. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Large Scale Storage System
* Storage Subsystem
* Storage System Performance, Scalability and Reliability
* Storage Security and Data Protection
* Shingled Write Disk
* Architecture and Applications of Solid State Storage
* Hybrid Hard Drive
* Data Centre Network
* Cloud Storage

The length of each submission is limited to 8 pages, inclusive of figures and references, and formatted in standard IEEE two-column conference style<http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/authors/authors_journals.html> with 11-pt font size. A submission may present preliminary results, propose a new research direction, provide insightful retrospective, or offer a provocative viewpoint on an important systems topic. Papers will be selected based on their originality, technical merit, clarity, and technical relevance. Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of the APMRC conference, which will be published in the IEEE Explore. Selected papers will be published in the journal of IEEE Transactions on Magnetics based on peer review. The authors should not have substantially similar work in review anywhere else.

Papers must be submitted by email to apmrc2012 at dsi.a-star.edu.sg<mailto:apmrc2012 at dsi.a-star.edu.sg>.

Title: Dynamic Storage Platform for Accumulating and Utilizing Huge-scale Data

Abstract: The environment which surrounds storage system has been dramatically changing. Emergence of huge-scale data analysis and new storage devices such as storage class memories is its example. Looking these phenomena from a storage platform viewpoint, movement of an all-in-one storage platform including from storage devices to analytical middleware has been getting popularity. This topic will cover our research activity about new storage platform based on our resource pool technology by which a system can be flexibly configured according to user applications. Distributed object storage technology that efficiently accumulates and utilizes huge-scale data will also be covered.
