the area of virtual execution environments for programs and systems.
The conference seeks original papers on virtualization at all levels
of the hardware and software stack. The topics of interest including,
but are not limited to:
o Virtual machines for high-level languages
o Programming language support for virtualization
o Compiler support for virtualization including dynamic compilation
o Binary translation and optimization
o Novel techniques and applications of interpreters
o Automatic resource and memory management
o Virtualization for security and reliability
o Virtualization technologies for grid computing
o Virtualization technologies for parallel computing
o Virtual machine monitors
o Operating system support for virtualization
o Management technologies for virtual environments
o Large-scale virtual environments
o Virtual Storage
o Virtualization technologies for desktop applications
o Applications that use virtualization in novel ways
o Other experiences with virtual execution environments
o Performance analysis and debugging for virtual exec. environments

Notification of Acceptance: November 2, 2007

*Note the earlier-than-usual deadline, needed in order to co-locate
VEE 2008 with ASPLOS.*
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Papers must be formatted according to the SIGPLAN 9-point
proceedings format and should be no longer than 10 pages in this
format. This 10-page limit includes everything (i.e., it is the
total length of the paper). The formatting rules will be strictly
enforced, and papers that do not conform to them may be
automatically rejected by the program chairs. Templates for the
SIGPLAN proceedings format can be found at:
http://acm.org/sigplan/authorInformation.htm
Submissions should be in PDF and printable on US Letter-sized paper.
Submitted papers must describe work unpublished in venues with a
formal proceedings, and not currently submitted for publication
elsewhere. See the SIGPLAN republication policy for more details:
http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/republicationpolicy.htm
Authors of accepted papers will be required to sign ACM copyright
release forms. Proceedings will be published by ACM Press.
PAPER EVALUATION
The program committee will evaluate the technical contribution of
each submission as well as its general accessibility to the VEE
audience. Papers will be judged on significance, originality,
relevance, correctness, and clarity. The abstract and introduction
must be written so that they can be understood by an audience with
varied expertise. The paper should clearly identify what has been
accomplished, why it is significant, and how it compares with
previous work. Papers in new areas or novel approaches to existing
areas are especially encouraged. It is acceptable for papers in new
areas to contain fewer quantitative evaluations and comparisons than
those in more established areas. Suggestions on how to prepare a
good submission can be found at the following two web sites:

About SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE
The SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE mailing list is intended to provide a low-volume
channel that provides operating systems researchers and practitioners
with information about upcoming events or other important
announcements. In general, a message containing a group of such
announcements will be sent about once per month with the subject line
"SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE monthly posting". On rare occasions, announcements
of particular interest or urgency will be sent out with a different
subject line, starting with "SIGOPS-ANNOUNCE supplemental posting"
(for readers who wish to use mail filtering programs). Finally, this
mailing list is made available for use by publicity chairs of
SIGOPS-sponsored conferences and the SIGOPS officers.
