Conference Description:
Join us in Boston, MA, June 13–15, 2012, for the 2012 USENIX Annual Technical Conference. USENIX ATC has always been the place to present groundbreaking research and cutting-edge practices in a wide variety of technologies and environments. USENIX ATC '12 will be no exception.
The Program Committee seeks high-quality submissions that further the knowledge and understanding of modern computing systems, with an emphasis on implementations and experimental results. We encourage papers that break new ground or present insightful results based on practical experience with computer systems.
USENIX ATC '12 will be part of USENIX Federated Conferences Week, which will take place June 12–15, 2012.
Authors are invited to submit original and innovative papers to the Refereed Papers Track of the 2012 USENIX Annual Technical Conference. We seek high-quality submissions that further the knowledge and understanding of modern computing systems, with an emphasis on implementations and experimental results. We encourage papers that break new ground, present insightful results based on practical experience with computer systems, or are important, independent reproductions/refutations of the experimental results of prior work. USENIX ATC has a broad scope, and specific topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Architectural interaction
Cloud computing
Deployment experience
Distributed and parallel systems
Embedded systems
Energy/power management
