[Tccc] Final CFP: NetDB 2009 (co-located with SOSP 2009)

5th International Workshop on Networking Meets Databases (NetDB 2009)
Co-located with the 22nd ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles
(SOSP) 2009
http://netdb09.cis.upenn.edu/

Scope
The Workshop on Networking Meets Databases (NetDB 2009) will bring
together researchers from the systems and networking community and the
database community. Many current research areas, such as cloud
computing, data-center networking, sensor networks, network management,
or social networks, raise research problems that lie at the boundary
between these two communities. This workshop's goal is to foster an
environment in which researchers from both communities can discuss ideas
that will shape and influence these emerging research areas. We
encourage submissions of early work, with novel and interesting
ideas. We expect that work introduced at NetDB 2009, once fully thought
through, completed, and described in a finished form, may be relevant to
conferences such as SOSP, OSDI, SIGCOMM, SIGMOD, VLDB, NSDI, or ICDE.

For the first time, the workshop will be co-located with the 22nd ACM
Symposium on Operating Systems Principles (SOSP) 2009. NetDB will be
held during the afternoon and early evening of Wednesday, October 14th,
2009 immediately succeeding the SOSP conference. Papers will be selected
based on originality, likelihood of spawning insightful discussion and
technical merit. The program will include presentation of the papers
along with plenty of time for lively discussion among the participants.

Topics of Interest
This year, NetDB takes a broad view of what constitutes research
relevant to both communities. As a venue for exploring new directions,
NetDB solicits submissions on work that borrows ideas and experiences
from both communities. Topics of interest include, but are not limited
to:
* Database support for managing large or novel datasets, such as social
* networking data, network management, or data in the cloud.
* Data mining and retrieval in large-scale systems.
* Declarative systems.
* Distributed key/value stores and cluster databases.
* Placement, indexing, caching, and replication techniques for
wide-area storage.
* Design, implementation, and experience with wide-area data management.
* Query planning, execution, and optimization in networked systems.
* Query evaluation using network hardware.
* Cross-layer optimization of databases and networks.
* Archiving and analysis of network and systems data.
* Data privacy and security in networks.

Submission guidelines
Paper submission will not be blind. The submissions will indicate the
names or affiliations of the authors in the paper. Please do not submit
abbreviated versions of journal or conference papers. In particular,
submissions to NetDB must not be concurrent with a substantially similar
submission to a conference or workshop, including condensed versions of
work that has been submitted and is currently under review. Submissions
should not be more than 5 pages in length. Accepted papers may be
subsequently revised, expanded, and submitted to full conferences and
journals.
