Overview

NSDI focuses on the design principles and practical evaluation of large-scale networked and distributed systems. Systems as diverse as Internet routing, peer-to-peer and overlay networks, sensor networks, Web-based systems, and measurement infrastructures share a set of common challenges. Our goal is to bring together researchers from across the networking and systems community to foster a broad approach to addressing our common research challenges.

Topics

NSDI will provide a high-quality, single-track forum for presenting new results and discussing ideas that overlap these disciplines. We seek a broad variety of work that furthers the knowledge and understanding of the networked systems community as a whole, continues a significant research dialog, or pushes the architectural boundaries of large-scale network services. We solicit papers describing original and previously unpublished research. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to:
o Highly available and reliable networked systems
o Security and fault-tolerance of networked systems
o Clean-slate approaches to networked systems
o Distributed storage, caching, and query processing
o Energy-efficient computing in networked systems
o Overlay networks and peer-to-peer systems
o Mobile and wireless networked systems
o Protocols and operating system support for sensor networking
o Network measurements, workload, and topology characterization
o Self-organizing, autonomous, and federated networked systems
o Managing, debugging, and diagnosing problems in networked systems
o Virtualization and resource management for networked systems
o Practical protocols and algorithms for networked systems
o Experience with deployed networked systems
o Novel operating system support for networked systems

What to Submit

Submissions must be full papers, at most 14 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, including figures, tables, and references, two-column format, using 10-point type on 12-point (single-spaced) leading, with a maximum text block of 6.5" wide x 9" deep with 0.25" intercolumn space. Papers that do not meet the size and formatting requirements will not be reviewed. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and correctness.

NSDI is single-blind, meaning that authors should include their names on their paper submissions and do not need to obscure references to their existing work.

Authors must submit their paper's title and abstract by September 25, 2009, and the corresponding full paper is due by October 2, 2009 (hard deadline). All papers must be submitted via the Web form, which will be available here soon. Accepted papers may be shepherded through an editorial review process by a member of the Program Committee. Based on initial feedback from the Program Committee, authors of shepherded papers will submit an editorial revision of their paper to their Program Committee shepherd by February 15, 2010. The shepherd will review the paper and give the author additional comments. All authors (shepherded or not) will produce a final, printable PDF by March 2, 2010, for the conference Proceedings.

All papers will be available online to registered attendees prior to the conference and will be available online to everyone starting on April 28, 2010.

If your accepted paper should not be published prior to the event, please notify production@usenix.org.

Simultaneous submission of the same work to multiple venues, submission of previously published work, or plagiarism constitutes dishonesty or fraud. USENIX, like other scientific and technical conferences and journals, prohibits these practices and may, on the recommendation of a program chair, take action against authors who have committed them. In some cases, program committees may share information about submitted papers with other conference chairs and journal editors to ensure the integrity of papers under consideration.

Previous publication at a workshop is acceptable as long as the NSDI submission includes substantial new material. For instance, submitting a paper that provides a full evaluation of an idea that was previously sketched in a 5-page position paper is acceptable. Authors of such papers should cite the prior workshop paper and clearly state the submission's contribution relative to the prior workshop publication.

Authors uncertain whether their submission meets USENIX's guidelines should contact the Program Co-Chairs, nsdi10chairs@usenix.org, or the USENIX office, submissionspolicy@usenix.org.

Papers accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms will not be considered. All submissions will be treated as confidential prior to publication on the USENIX NSDI '10 Web site; rejected submissions will be permanently treated as confidential.

One author per paper will receive a registration discount of $200. USENIX will offer a complimentary registration upon request.

Best Paper Awards

Awards will be given for the best paper and the best paper for which a student is the lead author.

Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions

Birds-of-a-Feather sessions (BoFs) are informal gatherings organized by attendees interested in a particular topic. BoFs will be held in the evening. BoFs may be scheduled in advance by emailing the USENIX Conference Department at bofs@usenix.org. BoFs may also be scheduled at the conference.

Registration Materials

Complete program and registration information will be available in January 2010 on the conference Web site. If you would like to receive the latest USENIX conference information, please join our mailing list.
