Reminder - RAIT Workshop - September 20, 2004

A gentle reminder to those that may be considering submitting a paper to
the IEEE Cluster 2004 RAIT Workshop (RDMA Applications, Implementations,
and Technologies) - the current date for submitting papers will be
extended from July 9th to a new date of July 16th, due to vacations,
etc.

 

For those that were not aware, there is a one day RDMA Workshop at this
Fall's IEEE Cluster 2004 Conference, on September 20th, 2004. The
workshop day will focus on reviewing the various juried papers submitted
and discussions on advanced RDMA topics. All are welcome to attend. The
official Workshop web page is
http://grail.sdsc.edu/cluster2004/RDMA2004Workshop.htm.

 

The umbrella conference is the IEEE Cluster 2004, and its web site is
http://grail.sdsc.edu/cluster2004/.

 

Here's an excerpt from the web page:

 

Call for papers

 

Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) enables transfer of data across a
network directly to and from application buffers without requiring any
intermediate copies or buffers. RDMA, along with direct access to the
networking hardware, also provides a low overhead mechanism for
achieving low latency, high-bandwidth communication. RDMA has become a
desirable feature in high-speed clusters and data-center networks. 

 

Scope

The RAIT 2004 workshop is the first event dedicated to RDMA. RAIT 2004
will serve as a forum to present the latest research work by the
researchers and developers from both the academia and industry. The
focus of this workshop will be on the applications of RDMA, the
implementation aspects of RDMA, and the RDMA technologies based on the
standards (RDMA over TCP/IP, InfiniBand, Virtual Interface Architecture,
etc.). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

*        RDMA hardware (RDMA-enabled NICs, InfiniBand adapters, or VI
NICs)

*        RDMA-aware networks and interfaces

*        Middleware and network services for RDMA-based networking

*        Applications of RDMA (iSCSI/iSER, NFS, DAFS, SDP, databases,
clustering, etc.)

*        RDMA Protocols

*        Operating system infrastructure for RDMA

*        RDMA performance evaluation (application performance,
performance metrics, network performance, etc.)

*        RDMA and security

*        Future directions for RDMA
