Scope:
======
The ACM International Systems and Storage Conference (SYSTOR) is an international forum for interaction across the systems research community. The program includes innovative, peer-reviewed research papers in the broad area of systems, as well as distinguished keynote lecturers, a poster session, and social events. ACM SYSTOR is designed to engage academic and industrial researchers and practitioners, welcoming both students and seasoned professionals.

Topics:
=======
SYSTOR welcomes academic and industrial papers in systems including storage, cloud and distributed systems, networking, and systems security, broadly construed. SYSTOR encourages submissions that describe results from experimental system prototypes, as well as experience papers describing practical deployments, and valuable lessons learned from them.


This year, we are broadening the scope to also include research on systems issues in AI and/or sustainability, including those that involve workload optimization, data processing, lifecycle of systems, carbon footprint transparency, and system re-designs.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:


Systems and workload optimization for AI/ML systems
Sustainability/carbon footprint of computer and network systems
System security and trust
Big Data infrastructure
Cloud, edge, data center, and distributed systems
Embedded and real-time systems
Fault tolerance, reliability, and availability
File and storage systems
Networked, mobile, wireless, peer-to-peer, and sensor systems
Operating systems, computer architecture, and their interactions
Performance evaluation and workload characterization
Runtime systems and compiler/programming-language support
System deployment, usage, and experience
System design or adaptation for emerging storage technologies
Virtualization and containers
Storage 3.0

Tracks:
=======
Full Papers Track – original research, at most 12 pages, excluding references
