CHEOPS'26 will be hosted in conjunction with EuroSys'26. The sixth workshop on ?Challenges and Opportunities of Efficient and Performant Storage Systems? (CHEOPS) is aimed at researchers, developers of scientific applications, engineers and everyone interested in the evolution of storage systems. As the developments of computing power, storage and network technologies continue to diverge, the bandwidth performance gap between them widens. This trend, combined with the ever-growing data volumes and data-driven computing such as machine learning and large language models, results in I/O and storage limitations, impacting the scalability and efficiency of current and future computing systems. Some of these challenges are quantitative, such as scale to match exascale system requirements, and reducing latency in the software stack to leverage new memory hierarchies enabled by technologies like CXL. Some other issues are more subtle and arise with the increased complexity of the storage solutions, like new smarter and more potent data management tools, monitoring systems or interoperability between I/O components or data formats. The main objective of this workshop is to discuss state-of-the-art research, innovative ideas and experiences that focus on the design and implementation of storage systems in both academic and industrial worlds. Topics of Interest ------------------------ Submissions may be more hands-on than research papers, so we explicitly encourage submissions in the early stages of research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Operating system optimizations Kernel and user space file/storage systems Virtual file systems Cloud, parallel and distributed file/storage systems Network challenges, such as scalability, QoS and partition-ability Approaches for low-latency and heterogeneous storage systems Computational storage devices and compute in memory technologies Metadata management Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Storage requirements of ML and AI applications (including LLMs, vector embeddings, KV cache data, model training checkpoints ) Using ML and AI within storage systems (e.g., to replace heuristics, to optimize storage and I/O systems) Content-aware storage systems Hybrid solutions using file systems and databases Approaches using query and database interfaces, including key-value stores Optimized indexing techniques Data organizations and movement to support online workflows Data privacy and data security Domain-specific data management solutions Application I/O profiling and characterization Tools for storage system performance profiling, modeling, and analysis Data reduction techniques Lossless and lossy compression, deduplication, dimensionality reduction, surrogate modeling UI/UX for storage systems Related experiences from users: what worked, what didn?t? Feedback and empirical evaluation of storage systems Paper Submissions --------------------------- In order to guarantee the quality of the submissions, we have formed a globally distributed, diverse program committee. All submissions will be reviewed by the program committee. We will use HotCRP to manage the submissions (https://cheops26.hotcrp.com/). The reviewing process will be double-blind, with at least 3 reviews for each submission. An online discussion will determine which papers to accept. Only original and novel work not currently under review in other venues will be considered for publication. Submissions can either be full papers (6 pages) or short papers (4 pages). The page count includes the title, text, figures, and appendices but excludes the references. They must be submitted electronically as PDF files formatted according to the submission rules of EuroSys (https://2026.eurosys.org/index.html). Accepted submissions will have to comply with the EuroSys proceedings format. One author of each accepted paper is required to register for the workshop and present the paper. Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for publication in the ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review journal.

Many real-world analytic workloads combine graph and machine learning methods. Graphs play an important role in the synthesis and analysis of relationships and organizational structures, furthering the ability of machine-learning methods to identify signature features. Given the difference in the parallel execution models of graph algorithms and machine learning methods, current tools, runtime systems, and architectures do not deliver consistently good performance across data analysis workflows. In this workshop we are interested in graphs, how their synthesis (representation) and analysis is supported in hardware and software, and the ways graph algorithms interact with machine learning. The workshop?s scope is broad and encompasses the wide range of methods used in large-scale data analytics workflows. This workshop seeks papers on the theory, model-based analysis, simulation, and analysis of operational data for graph analytics and related machine learning applications. In particular, we are interested, but not limited to the following topics: * Provide tractability and performance analysis in terms of complexity, time-to-solution, problem size, and quality of solution for systems that deal with mixed data analytics workflows; * Investigate novel solutions for accelerating graph learning-based methods using methodologies such as graph neural networks and knowledge graphs; * Discuss graph programming models and associated frameworks such as GraphBLAS, Galois, Pregel, the Boost Graph Library, GraphChi, etc., for building large multi-attributed graphs; * Discuss how frameworks for building graph algorithms interact with those for building machine learning algorithms; * Discuss the convergence of graph analytics, frameworks, and graph databases; * Discuss hardware platforms specialized for addressing large, dynamic, multi-attributed graphs and associated machine learning; * Discuss the problem domains and applications of graph methods, machine learning methods, or both. Besides regular papers, short papers (up to four pages) describing work-in-progress or incomplete but sound, innovative ideas related to the workshop theme are also encouraged.

The Heterogeneity in Computing Workshop (HCW) is a venue to discuss and innovate in all theoretical and practical aspects of heterogeneous computing: design, programmability, efficient utilization, algorithms, modeling, applications, etc. HCW 2026 will be the thirty-fifth annual gathering of this workshop. ### Topics Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following areas: **Heterogeneous multicore systems and architectures**: Design, exploration, and experimental analysis of heterogeneous computing systems such as Graphics Processing Units, heterogeneous systems-on-chip, Artificial Intelligence chips, Field Programmable Gate Arrays, big.LITTLE, and application-specific architectures. **Heterogeneous parallel and distributed systems**: Design and analysis of computing grids, cloud systems, hybrid clusters, datacenters, geo-distributed computing systems, and supercomputers. **Deep memory hierarchies**: Design and analysis of memory hierarchies with SRAM, DRAM, Flash/SSD, and HDD technologies; NUMA architectures; cache coherence strategies; novel memory systems such as phase-change RAM, magnetic (e.g., STT) RAM, 3D Xpoint/crossbars, and memristors. **On-chip, off-chip, and heterogeneous network architectures**: Network-on-chip (NoC) architectures and protocols for heterogeneous multicore applications; energy, latency, reliability, and security optimizations for NoCs; off-chip (chip-to-chip) network architectures and optimizations; heterogeneous networks (combination of NoC and off-chip) design, evaluation, and optimizations; large-scale parallel and distributed heterogeneous network design, evaluation, and optimizations. **Programming models and tools**: Programming paradigms and tools for heterogeneous systems; middleware and runtime systems; performance-abstraction tradeoff; interoperability of heterogeneous software environments; workflows; dataflows. **Resource management and algorithms for heterogeneous systems**: Parallel algorithms for solving problems on heterogeneous systems (e.g., multicores, hybrid clusters, grids, or clouds); strategies for scheduling and allocation on heterogeneous 2D and 3D multicore architectures; static and dynamic scheduling and resource management for large-scale and parallel heterogeneous systems. **Modeling, characterization, and optimizations**: Performance models and their use in the design of parallel and distributed algorithms for heterogeneous platforms; characterizations and optimizations for improving the time to solve a problem (e.g., throughput, latency, runtime); modeling and optimizing electricity consumption (e.g., power, energy); modeling for failure management (e.g., fault tolerance, recovery, reliability); modeling for security in heterogeneous platforms. **Applications on heterogeneous systems**: Case studies; confluence of Big Data systems and heterogeneous systems; data-intensive computing; scientific computing. This year we wish to focus on and expand submissions and presentations in the following "hot topics" areas; therefore, we especially invite submissions in the following four areas: **Heterogeneous Integration of Quantum Computing**: Design, exploration, and analysis of architectures and software frameworks enabling heterogeneous integration of classical computing and quantum computing (e.g., heterogeneous quantum computers, error correction, heterogeneous applications that use both classical and quantum logic, benchmarks for heterogeneous quantum computers). **Heterogeneity and Interoperability in Software & Data Systems**: Design, exploration, and analysis of architectures and software frameworks for interoperability in software and data systems (e.g., semantic frameworks, interoperability for heterogeneous Internet-of-Things systems, model-driven frameworks). **Heterogeneous Computing for Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL)**: Design, exploration, benchmarking, and analysis of accelerators and software frameworks for ML and DL applications on heterogeneous computing systems. **Closing the loop on the design of heterogeneous compilers, runtimes, and hardware**: As the needs of heterogeneous hardware apply pressure on runtime designers to adjust for the complexities of heterogeneous resource management, runtimes are now applying pressure back towards compiler designers to include all relevant information -- such as data flow and dependency analysis or hardware-specific representations of application tasks -- in their binaries to enable resource management policies to arbitrate effectively. Advancements in machine understanding of code are critical in enabling progress here with a holistic view of compilers, runtimes and heterogeneous hardware. ### Important Dates * **Paper submission**: January 29, 2026 * **Author notification**: February 24, 2026 * **Camera-ready submission**: March 6, 2026 ### Paper Submissions Manuscripts submitted to HCW 2026 should not have been previously published or be under review for a different workshop, conference, or journal.

Requested papers will address different problem areas, data availability to create models, privacy and security concerns for managing system data used for model creation, continuous model evolution and the impacts of chasing current workloads on a dynamic system, resource allocation efficiency through overlapping jobs based on job behavior patterns rather than avoiding it entirely, and other systems management related topics. We also welcome work about system design focused on supporting AI workloads. Adapting existing system infrastructure to better support AI tools is an equally important and challenging opportunity. For example, managing storage, such as tiering and caching, to better feed ML algorithms or prioritizing task scheduling to balance data movement with training or inference can lead to lower training times and better energy efficiency. Other such concerns are also welcome.
