Call for papers
The DMTF Academic Alliance announces the creation of the fourth workshop
dedicated to academic research on standards and new technologies for systems
and virtualization management. This event comes in addition to the technical
and developers' events organized for several years by the DMTF, and will
take place the week of October 25 in Ontario, Canada.

The primary theme of SVM 2010 will be "Systems and Virtualization
Management: Standards and the Cloud". With the advent and increasing
popularity of Cloud Computing, systems management and virtualization
management technology has taken on increasing importance. The goal of SVM
2010 is to illuminate related standards and research issues, covering areas
such as: what are the implications of standards for virtualization in Cloud
Computing, what advances in information models and protocols aid in managing
Clouds, what new problems will we incur when managing Cloud offerings and
services, and how management itself might benefit from virtualization and
the Cloud. Submissions on topics related to managing Clouds, virtualization
of distributed resources/services and work in management standardization are
thus particularly encouraged.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Virtualization
- Management of Compute Clouds
- Management of Storage Clouds
- Use of Virtualization for Management
* Key management issues
- Infrastructure for management
- Managing IaaS infrastructure
- Use and extension of management standards
