    USENIX/ACM Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation
    (NSDI '04)
    March 29 - 31, 2004
    San Francisco, California, USA
    http://www.usenix.org/nsdi04/

    NSDI '04 is a new conference focused on the design principles of
    large-scale distributed and networked systems. We believe systems as
    diverse as scalable Web services, peer-to-peer file sharing, sensor
    nets, and distributed network measurement share a set of common
    challenges. Progress in any of these areas requires a deep understanding
    of how researchers are addressing the challenges of large-scale systems
    in other contexts. Our goal is to bring together researchers from across
    the systems community--including operating systems, distributed systems,
    and computer networking--to foster a cross-disciplinary approach to
    addressing our common research challenges. NSDI will provide a
    high-quality, single-track forum for presenting new results and
    discussing ideas that overlap these disciplines.

    The NSDI '04 Program Committee seeks work that furthers the knowledge
    and understanding of the systems community as a whole, continues a
    significant research dialog, or pushes the architectural boundaries of
    large-scale network services. We solicit papers describing original and
    previously unpublished research and experiences. Specific topics of
    interest include, but are not limited to:

    * Scalable techniques for high availability and reliability
    * Security and robustness of highly complex systems
    * Novel architectural approaches for specific application domains
    * Network measurements, workload and topology characterization
    * Autonomous and self-configuring network and system management
    * Network virtualization and resource management
    * Distributed storage, caching, and query optimization
    * Network protocols and algorithms for complex distributed systems
    * Operating system support for scalable network services
    * Relevant application or system experiences (e.g., in sensor nets, P2P
    systems, overlays, pervasive computing)

    Important Dates:
    Paper titles and abstracts due: September 15, 2003
    Final paper submissions due: September 22, 2003
    Notification of acceptance: December 11, 2003
    Papers due for shepherding: January 26, 2004
    Camera-ready final papers due: February 9, 2004
