NEW THIS MONTH! | WESS 2015 |
| Title: | 10-th Workshop on Embedded Systems Security (WESS'15) - ESWEEK Workshop |
| Submission Deadline: | 2015-07-03 |
| Webpage: | http://www.wess-workshop.org/ |
| Dates: | October, 8, 2015 |
| Location: | Amsterdam, The Netherlands |
| Contact Email: | serpanos@ece.upatras.gr |
| Synopsis: |
| Embedded computing systems are continuously adopted in numerous application areas and are responsible for a large number of safety-critical systems and for the management of critical information. The advent of the Internet-of-Things introduces a large number of security issues: the Internet can be used to attack embedded systems and vice versa. Embedded systems are vulnerable to many attacks not relevant to servers because they are physically accessible. WESS will address the range of problems related to embedded system security and especially topics unique to embedded systems. The workshop will provide proceedings and will encourage discussion and debate about embedded systems security. |

But many good papers are rejected, with publication delayed by months or years. TRIOS is a venue for such papers to be published in a more timely manner, benefiting the authors and the community. TRIOS accepts submissions directly from authors (deadline:5/26) and SOSP transfers (deadline:7/6). Direct submissions are reviewed by the TRIOS program committee. SOSP transfers, i.e. submissions of SOSP rejects, are not re-reviewed except in special cases; instead, the TRIOS committee makes acceptance decisions based on SOSP reviews. |

| Title: | SIGOPS HoF Award, Mark Weiser Award, Dennis M. Ritchie Award |
| Summary: |
=========================================================== CALL FOR NOMINATIONS: ACM SIGOPS Dennis M. Ritchie Award =========================================================== *Deadline: July 1st, 2015* The Dennis M. Ritchie Doctoral Dissertation Award was created in 2013 by ACM SIGOPS to recognize research in software systems and to encourage the creativity that Dennis Ritchie embodied, providing a reminder of Ritchie's legacy and what a difference one person can make in the field of software systems research. The first award was presented at the 24th ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles, 2013. This will be an annual award presented in alternating years at SOSP and OSDI. *Eligibility* Each year, a department is allowed to nominate one Ph.D. thesis produced in that department. The nomination must be made by the chair of the department and must be accompanied by three supporting letters from researchers in the field, clearly specifying the contributions of the thesis and the potential impact on software systems. (If the department chair is the thesis advisor of the nominee, then another senior faculty member in the department must make the nomination.) The thesis must have been defended successfully at most two years before the conference at which the award will be presented. An English-language version of the thesis must accompany the nomination. The Award Committee will determine if the thesis is within scope for the award. The thesis may be nominated simultaneously for other awards, such as the ACM Doctoral Dissertation Award. *Award* The SIGOPS Dennis M. Ritchie Doctoral Dissertation Award is accompanied by a prize of $2,000. Financial sponsorship of the award is provided by SIGOPS, Bell Labs Alcatel-Lucent, and AT&T Labs Research. *Submission Procedure* Please see http://www.sigops.org/award-weiser.html for detailed nomination procedures and a list of previous award winners. =================================================================== Call for Nomination: SIGOPS Mark Weiser Awards =================================================================== The Mark Weiser Award was created in 2001 by ACM SIGOPS, to be given to an individual who has demonstrated creativity and innovation in operating systems research. The recipient must have begun his or her career no earlier than 20 years prior to nomination. The award is named in honor of Mark Weiser, a computing visionary recognized for his research accomplishments during his career at Xerox PARC. ACM SIGOPS will present a $1000 prize to the recipient, in memory of Mark and his many contributions to SIGOPS and the operating systems community. The award will be given annually at SOSP and OSDI. The selection committee will choose the recipient based on: "contributions that are highly creative, innovative, and possibly high-risk, in keeping with the visionary spirit of Mark Weiser." Nominations are due August 1st, 2015. Please see http://www.sigops.org/award-weiser.html for detailed nomination procedures, a list of previous award winners, and a list of award-committee members. =================================================================== Call for Nomination: SIGOPS Hall of Fame Awards =================================================================== We are requesting nominations for the SIGOPS Hall of Fame Award as part of the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of SIGOPS at SOSP 2015. Per request of SIGOPS, which has adopted new rules for the HoF award (see http://sigops.org/announce/hofrevision.txt), the anniversary selection is a "catch up" selection: it will complete the selection of the most influential papers of the past fifty years of operating systems research. Starting from OSDI 2016, the selection of HoF papers will be restricted to papers that appeared 10-11 years previously. The selection for the anniversary will complete the selection papers published through SOSP 2005. The selection committee consists of Peter Druschel (MPI), Gernot Heiser (NICTA), Remzi Arpaci-Dusseau (Wisconsin), Butler Lampson (Microsoft), Barbara Liskov (MIT), Jeff Mogul (Google), Mendel Rosenblum (Stanford), Willy Zwaenepoel (EFPL), and is co-chaired by Hank Levy (Washington, co-chair) and Frans Kaashoek (MIT, co-chair). Any SIGOPS member can nominate a paper. Any paper nominated in the past but not selected is automatically considered for selection. Please send nominations via email to HOFnominations@sigops.org on or before July 1, 2015. Please provide the full citation information for the paper being nominated (or a URL to the ACM DL), and a brief statement describing the reasons for the nomination. The Subject line of the email message should include the title of the nominated paper. The awards will be presented at SOSP'15, October 4-7, 2015 in Monterey, California, USA.
