                         Call for Nominations
                           Editor-In-Chief
                  ACM Transactions on Storage (TOS)

The term of the current Editor-in-Chief (EiC) of the ACM 
Transactions on Storage (TOS, http://tos.acm.org) is coming to an 
end, and the ACM Publications Board has set up a nominating 
committee to assist the Board in selecting the next EiC. ACM TOS 
focuses on all aspects of storage, including but not limited to 
network protocols, resource management, data backup, replication, 
recovery, devices, security, theory of data coding, and energy 
efficiency. The journal was established in 2005.

Appointed by the ACM Publications Board, EiCs of ACM journals are 
delegated full responsibility for the editorial management of the 
journal consistent with the journal's charter and general ACM 
policies. The Board relies on EiCs to ensure that the content of 
the journal is of high quality and that the editorial review 
process is both timely and fair. The EiC has the final say on the 
acceptance of papers, size of the Editorial Board, and the 
appointment of Associate Editors. A complete list of 
responsibilities is found in the ACM Volunteer Editors Position 
Descriptions 
(http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/position_descriptions). The 
EiC is expected to adhere to the commitments expressed in the 
policy on the Rights and Responsibilities in ACM Publishing 
(https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/roles-and-responsibilities). For 
more information about the role of the EiC, see ACM’s Evaluation 
Criteria for Editors-in-Chief 
(http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/evaluation/).

Nominations, including self-nominations, are invited for a 
three-year term as TOS EiC, beginning on October 1st, 2022. The 
EiC appointment may be renewed at most one time. This is an 
entirely voluntary position, but ACM will provide appropriate 
administrative support. Nominations should include a curriculum 
vitae along with a brief statement of why the nominee should be 
considered. Self-nominations are encouraged and should include a 
statement of the candidate's vision for the future development of 
ACM TOS. The deadline for submitting nominations is August 15th, 
2022, although nominations will continue to be accepted until the 
position is filled.

Please send all nominations to the nominating committee chair, 
Geoff Kuenning (geoff+toseic at cs.hmc.edu), with subject line: “EiC 
Nomination for ACM TOS”.

    - Geoff Kuenning, Harvey Mudd College, USA (chair)
