Workshop on Large-Scale System and Application Performance
(LSAP2009)
In conjunction with the 18-th International Symposium on High
Performance Distributed Computing (HPDC-18)
Munich, Germany, June 9 or 10, 2009 http://www.lsap.org
*** EXTENDED submission deadline: March 10, 2009 (11:59 PM EST) ***
MISSION
Over the last decade, computer systems and applications in everyday
use have grown to unprecedented scales. Large clusters serving
millions of search requests per day, grids executing large workflows
and parameter sweeps consisting of thousands of jobs, and
supercomputers running complex e-science applications, have now
hundreds of thousands of processing cores. In addition, clouds are
quickly emerging as a large-scale computing infrastructure. Peer-to-
peer systems and centralized video distribution systems that dominate
the internet and complicated internet applications such as massive
multiplayer online games are used by millions of people every day.
In view of this tremendous growth, understanding the performance of
large-scale computer systems and applications has become vital to
institutional, commercial, and private interests. This workshop
solicits original papers on performance evaluation methods, tools, and
studies focusing on the challenges of large scale, such as
decentralization, predictable performance, reliability, and
scalability. It aims to bring together system designers and
researchers involved with the modeling and performance evaluation of
large-scale systems and applications.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Performance aspects of large-scale systems
- Performance aspects of large-scale applications
- Performance-oriented properties such as availability, reliability,
and scalability
- Workload characterization and modeling - Mathematical modeling and
analysis methods
- Simulation methods and tools
- Measurement methods and tools
- Performance case studies
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Submitted papers should be limited to 8 pages (including tables,
images, and references) and formatted according to the ACM SIGS Style.
Use the official HPDC conference submission site to submit your paper;
only pdf format is accepted. All papers will receive at least three
reviews. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the
authors to register for the workshop and present the paper. The
authors of the best paper in the workshop will receive a best-paper
award.
PROCEEDINGS
The proceedings of the workshop will be published by ACM.
