IEEE SNAPI 2010: call for paper
6th IEEE International Workshop on Storage Network Architecture and Parallel I/Os
May 3, 2010 (http://people.ac.upc.edu/toni/SNAPI2010/snapi2010.html)
In conjunction with the 26th IEEE Conference on Mass Storage Systems and Technologies (MSST 2010) (http://storageconference.org)
Lake Tahoe — Incline Village, NV May 3rd, 2010 (http://www.laketahoe.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels/index.jsp)
Description
The tremendous need for storage capacity and I/O performance has become a critical factor for computing systems, generally, from enterprise systems to computational science and everything in between. As a result, disk I/O and data storage on which data reside have clearly become "first class citizens" in the modern information world. In addition, parallelism is now ubiquitous in computing, from multi-core processors within a single enclosure to massively parallel I/O systems that span many racks of equipment. SNAPI 2010 brings together experts from academia and industry to discuss cutting edge research on parallel and distributed data storage technologies, storage interconnects, and storage management.
- Caching and consistency
