Dear Sir/Madam,

Could you help me send the CFP (Software-Defined Data Communications and
Storage (SDDCS) 2016 ) to the storage-research-list digest? Many thanks.

The International Workshop of Software-Defined Data Communications and
Storage
(SDDCS) 2016 in conjunction with IEEE ICDCS 2016 on June 27, 2016, in Nara,
Japan

http://stlab.wnlo.hust.edu.cn/csyhua/sddcs2016.htm

******Overview******
The future infrastructures of the data centers and
cloud computing are becoming more software
defined. Although networking infrastructures
consist of communications and storage resources,
they are generally studied separately. Hence,
applications and platforms have to precisely
define the virtual environment in which they
wish to run, and the communication performance
decreases because we have been ignoring the
properties of storage devices. The
software-defined methodology offers an
opportunity to bridge this gap and to deliver
higher and improved performance. The SDDCS
workshop provides the forum for researchers of
multi-disciplinary fields: networks, systems
research which spans data communications,
networking, storage systems and devices, as well
as the applications, to discuss and exchange idea
on how to take this opportunity to bridge the
performance gap.
SDDCS aims to bring together industry and
academia to jointly explore recent progresses
related with the potential performance bottleneck
and the gap between communications and
storage in the software-defined context. We
particularly encourage contributions which
contain highly original ideas, new approaches,
and/or groundbreaking results.

*******Topics******
Topics of interest in SDDCS include but are not
limited to:
** Software-defined communication protocols
** Software-defined storage devices
** Convergent design for communications and storage
** Non-volatile storage support for network transmission
** Storage deduplication for cloud backups
** Data collection and analytics for system optimization
** Dynamic workload redistribution and scheduling
** Non-volatile devices in network switches
** Cross-layer coordination
** Storage virtualization in network end systems
** Security for SDDCS schemes
** Programmable interfaces for convergent design
** User studies and experiences of real-world applications

******Submission Instructions******
Submitted papers must be no longer than 8
single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, including figures,
tables, and references; two-column format, using
10-point type on 12-point (single-spaced)
leading; and a text block 6.5" wide x 9" deep.
Author names and affiliations should appear on
the title page.
The submitted papers should present original
theoretical and/or experimental research in any
of the areas listed above that has not been
previously published, accepted for publication,
or is not currently under review by another
conference or journal.

> Data is becoming an increasingly decisive resource in modern societies,

> encompassing various kinds of complex and large scale information beyond
> the processing capability of conventional software and databases. Various
> technologies are being discussed to support the handling of big data such
> as massively parallel processing databases, scalable storage systems, cloud
> computing platforms, Hadoop and Spark.  Due to the multisource, massive,
> heterogeneous, and dynamic characteristics of application data involved in
> a distributed environment, one of the most important characteristics of Big
> Data is to carry out computing on the petabyte (PB), even the exabyte
> (EB)-level data with a complex computing process. Therefore, large-scale
> scalable Big Data Infrastructure with corresponding programming language
> support and software models for efficient processing in distributed
> environments such as cloud is on demand.

> In this special issue, we invite articles on innovative research to address
