VHPC 2016 - 11th Workshop on Virtualization in High-Performance Cloud Computing

The VHPC program committee solicits original, high-quality submissions related to
virtualization across the entire software stack with a special focus on the intersection of HPC
and the cloud. Topics include, but are not limited to:
Virtualization in supercomputing environments, HPC clusters, cloud HPC and grids
OS-level virtualization including container runtimes (Docker, rkt et al.)
Lightweight compute node operating systems/VMMs
Optimizations of virtual machine monitor platforms, hypervisors
QoS and SLA in hypervisors and network virtualization
Cloud based network and system management for SDN and NFV
Management, deployment and monitoring of virtualized environments
Virtual per job / on-demand clusters and cloud bursting
Performance measurement, modelling and monitoring of virtualized/cloud workloads
Programming models for virtualized environments
Virtualization in data intensive computing and Big Data processing
Cloud reliability, fault-tolerance, high-availability and security
Heterogeneous virtualized environments, virtualized accelerators, GPUs and co-processors
Optimized communication libraries/protocols in the cloud and for HPC in the cloud
Topology management and optimization for distributed virtualized applications
Adaptation of emerging HPC technologies (high performance networks, RDMA, etc..)
I/O and storage virtualization, virtualization aware file systems
Job scheduling/control/policy in virtualized environments
Checkpointing and migration of VM-based large compute jobs
Cloud frameworks and APIs
Energy-efficient / power-aware virtualization
