---------------
Workshop on Virtualization Technologies in Distributed Computing (VTDC 2010)
in conjunction with the 19-th International Symposium on High
Performance Distributed Computing (HPDC-19)
Chicago, Illinois, USA, June 22, 2010
http://www.grid-appliance.org/wiki/index.php/VTDC10
WORKSHOP SCOPE
Virtualization has proven to be a powerful enabler in the field of
distributed computing and has led to the emergence of the cloud
computing paradigm and the provisioning of Infrastructure-as-a-Service
(IaaS). This new paradigm raises challenges ranging from performance
evaluation of IaaS platforms, through new methods of resource management
including providing Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and energy- and
cost-efficient schedules, to the emergence of supporting technologies
such as virtual appliance management.
For the last three years, the VTDC workshop has served as a forum for
the exchange of ideas and experiences studying the challenges and
opportunities created by IaaS/cloud computing and virtualization
technologies. VTDC brings together researchers in academia and industry
who are involved in research and development on resource virtualization
technologies and on techniques applied to the management of virtualized
environments in distributed systems.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
VTDC 2010 topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
* Virtualization in data centers
* Virtualization for resource management and QoS assurance
* Security aspects of using virtualization in a distributed environment
* Virtual networks
* Virtual data, storage as a service
* Fault tolerance in virtualized environments
* Virtualization in P2P systems
* Virtualization-based adaptive/autonomic systems
* The creation and management of environments/appliances
* Virtualization technologies
* Performance modeling (applications and systems)
* Virtualization techniques for energy/thermal management
* Case studies of applications on IaaS platforms
* Deployment studies of virtualization technologies
* Tools relevant to virtualization
