 6th International DMTF Workshop on Systems and
         Virtualization Management:
      Standards and the Cloud SVM 2012
         http://dmtf.org/svm12
            26 October 2012
 Conference on Network and Service Management
              Las Vegas, Nevada USA


Call for Papers and Call for Posters


The DMTF Academic Alliance announces the creation of the sixth 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 22 in Las Vegas, Nevada USA.  We
will be holding a poster session in addition to the workshop.


The primary theme of SVM 2012 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
2012 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.

Papers submitted to SVM'12 must not have been published, accepted for
publication, or be under consideration for publication elsewhere.


Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

   Virtualization
          Management of Compute Clouds
          Management of Storage Clouds
