VISA 2009: The First ACM SIGCOMM Workshop on Virtualized Infrastructure Systems and Architectures ---in conjunction with ACM SIGCOMM 2009, August 17th 2009,Barcelona, Spain.http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2009/workshops/visa/* FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS *Infrastructure virtualization has emerged as an important architectureand experimentation concept for the Internet infrastructure. The globalcomputing and communication infrastructure will encompass (as it doestoday) a diverse and huge collection of networking, computing andstorage resources. Together they need to form a coherent infrastructureand meet our society's requirements for the 21st century. Infrastructurevirtualization involves creation of a virtual slice of network,computing and storage resources in support of a service, an application,or an experiment from a physical substrate of diverse resources. Thisallows users of a virtualized infrastructure slice to access resourceson a potentially global scale without incurring the cost of buildingsuch an infrastructure. Thus infrastructure virtualization provides aplatform to allow innovation on a global scale and enables new businessmodels. As we envision and research Future Internet, there is increasingrecognition that Infrastructure Virtualization will play an importantrole. However, there are many technical problems to solve: how todiscover and advertise the resources; how to create and manage aninfrastructure slice across diverse resources; how does virtualizationextend to the wireless edge; how to implement virtualization acrossdiverse resources and across layers of protocol stack; how to map anapplication or service to run on an infrastructure slice; whatapplications and capabilities are enabled by infrastructurevirtualization; what kind of cross-layer protocols are possible; howdoes infrastructure virtualization impact the business models of networkoperators; and others. Many research groups in the US, Europe, Japan, and elsewhere arepursuing different aspects of infrastructure virtualization; variousinternational funding agencies are actively supporting research in thisarea; and many providers and vendors are very interested in exploringhow this concept and associated technologies would help solve theirbusiness problems and create new growth opportunities. The goal of theworkshop is to feature recent research and developments related toinfrastructure virtualization to allow exchange of ideas and help builda research and user community to explore and help realize the potentialof infrastructure virtualization.* TOPICS OF INTEREST *We solicit previously unpublished work on the following, non exhaustive,list of topics:* Infrastructure virtualization architecture;* Resource allocation to virtual slices; * Management tools for infrastructure virtualization;* Implementation and transition map for infrastructurevirtualization;* Isolation and slice independence in a virtualizedinfrastructure;* Integration of the wireless edge into a virtualized network;* Inter-operability and federation of virtualized infrastructures;* Cross-layer protocols for virtualized networks;* Applications and services enabled by virtualized infrastructure;and * Security issues with virtualized infrastructure. * EXTENDED DEADLINES *Paper submission deadline: Friday March 27, 2009Acceptance notification: Friday May 1, 2009Camera ready final submission: Friday May 29, 2009Workshop: Monday August 17, 2009* INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS *Authors should submit pdf papers exclusively, to the EasyChairconference management system:http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=visa09. Please follow the format of ACM Sigcomm 2009 submissions, exceptanonymity is not required and the page limit is eight pages. Thisworkshop strongly encourages the submission of exploratory results thatpoint to new directions and challenges in the design and management of avirtualized infrastructure.Please contact visa09easychair.org for any inquiry regarding theworkshop.* WORKSHOP ORGANIZATION *Steering Committee:- Tomonori Aoyama, Keio University and NICT- Anja Feldmann, TU Berlin and T Labs- Nick McKeown, Stanford University- Guru Parulkar, Stanford University- Larry Peterson, Princeton University- Cedric Westphal, DoCoMo Labs USAProgram Chairs:- Guru Parulkar, Stanford University- Cedric Westphal, DoCoMo Labs USAProgram Committee Members:- Hasan Alkhatib, Microsoft- Tomonori Aoyama, Keio University and NICT- Jack Brassil, HP Labs- Stephan Baucke, Ericsson- Simon Crosby, Citrix Systems- Christophe Diot, Thomson Labs- Lars Eggert, Nokia Research Center- Serge Fdida, UPMC - Paris 6- Nick Feamster, Georgia Tech- Anja Feldmann, TU Berlin and T Labs- Silvano Gai, Cisco Systems- Albert Greenberg, Microsoft- James Kempf, Ericsson- Dae Young Kim, Chungnam National University- Ulas Kozat, Docomo Labs USA- Laurent Mathy, Lancaster University- Nick McKeown, Stanford University- Sue Moon, KAIST- Akihiro Nakao, The University of Tokyo- K.K.
