June 19, 2009 - Seattle, WA

HotMetrics 2009 aims to bring together researchers in the SIGMETRICS and related communities to discuss emerging challenges in performance evaluation, including the impact of incorporating reliability, resilience, manageability, and security. The goal is to identify “big” and “hard” problems, and to help develop innovative approaches for solving them. HotMetrics is expected to serve both as a forum for presenting new ideas and for fostering research collaborations between researchers.
We seek submissions of position papers that introduce hard research problems, propose new directions of research, advocate non-traditional approaches to old or new ideas, or generate debate and discussion on a variety of broad issues that are of interest and pertinence to SIGMETRICS. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Papers:
Papers must not exceed 5 double-column pages (including figures, tables, and bibliography) in the standard ACM format. Papers must be submitted electronically in printable PDF form, via the EDAS system.
To ensure productive discussions, attendance to the workshop will be limited. In addition to authors of selected papers and the reviewers, we will invite a small number of leading researchers to participate in the debates. After the workshop, the revised papers, reviews, and additional commentaries summarizing the discussions will be published in SIGMETRICS's Performance Evaluation Review to provide wide distribution to the community.
