Unexpected compassion leave
by Michel Drescher 12 Feb '07

12 Feb '07

Folks, due to an unexpected emergency incident at home, I have to take off for at least the rest of the week. OGSA-WG: I will not be able to attend conference calls, particularly this week Thursday (having OGSA-Workflow scheduled). OGSA-DMI-WG: I will not be able to host the scheduled conference call this week Wednesday. Unless anybody else can back me up, the call will be cancelled. JSDL-WG: Regarding the Parameter Sweep proposed extension. Ali is briefed and will advance further without me for the time being. Sorry for any inconvenience. Cheers, Michel -- Michel <dot> Drescher <at> uk <dot> fujitsu <dot> com Fujitsu Laboratories of Europe +44 20 8606 4834

Action Items for OGSA and Reference Model
by Hiro Kishimoto 12 Feb '07

12 Feb '07

Hi all, The following is Action Items for OGSA and Reference Model. Under new telecon structure, we will review only relevant action items at each slot (2 slot per call). From OGF19 session #2 AI-0122a: Hiro and Paul will do strawman of the joint OGSA/Reference Model document by OGF19 AI-0122b: Paul will update the agenda of the Reference model BOF session. (Hiro will send Paul a pointer on how to do this update.) From Oct. 23 call AI-1023c: Tom volunteered to review Hiro's HPC Cluster use case slides and make appropriate changes to indicate where the CIM Profile would fit in and how it would link into the Reference Model. AI-1023d: Paul will add more items to list on slide 6 of the HPC Cluster use case AI-1023g: Hiro will look at other parts of slide 5 and identify further possible refinements of this use case. Thanks, -- Hiro Kishimoto

IFIP/IEEE Workshop on End-to-end Virtualization and Grid Management 2007 - Preliminary CfP
by Masum Hasan (masum) 08 Feb '07

08 Feb '07

IEEE/IFIP International Workshop on End-to-end Virtualization and Grid Management EVGM'07 October 29-30, 2007 Silicon Valley, California, USA Part of Manweek 2007: http://www.manweek.org <http://www.manweek.org/> PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS Virtualization allows layer n (upper layer) to function independently and effectively without being intrinsically tied to layer n-1 (lower layer). In OS virtualization, guest operating systems are isolated from physical computational resources. In server virtualization, application servers are isolated from physical server resources. In network virtualization, network services or applications are isolated from physical network resources. One of the major features of Grids is the sharing of heterogeneous resources, which can be facilitated by various levels of virtualization. In other words, Grids should provide holistic or end-to-end virtualization. It is obvious that proper resource management is key to providing effective virtualization. However, resource management for virtualization is a challenge (as opposed to typical resource management) in that there is no trivial way of virtualizing resources and presenting virtualized resources to the upper layers. It is even a bigger challenge when end-to-end (E2E) virtualization is considered, for example, when OS and server virtualization interplay with storage and network virtualization for providing an effective E2E virtualized environment. This workshop will offer a unique opportunity for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and experiences on problems, challenges, solutions and potential future research, as well as development issues, in this new field of E2E Virtualization and Grid Management. In addition to paper presentations, the workshop provides an intimate setting for discussion and debate through panels and group work. The authors are encouraged to submit original papers on topics related to the concepts described above, including, but not limited to: * OS resource management for virtualization (OS Virtualization) * Server resource management for virtualization (Server Virtualization) * Application resource management for virtualization (Application Virtualization) * Storage resource management for virtualization (Storage Virtualization) * Network resource management for virtualization (Network Virtualization) * Network Management resource management for virtualization (NM Virtualization) * Heterogeneous Grid VO resource management for virtualization (Grid Virtualization) * Interplay of various virtualization layers * Virtual resource scheduling * Virtual resource discovery * Virtual resource monitoring * Virtualization in clusters and high-performance computing environments * Virtualization for ERP, CRM, Healthcare, Financial applications Workshop Co-chairs Silvia Figueira, Santa Clara University, USA Masum Z. Hasan, Cisco, USA Important Dates Submission deadline: May 13, 2007 Notification of acceptance: July 6, 2007 Camera-ready: August 2, 2007 Paper Submission Authors are requested to submit either long or short papers, strictly in LNCS format: - Long papers (up to 10 single-spaced single-column pages) - Short papers describing work-in-progress (up to 4 pages) Submissions exceeding the above mentioned page limits will not be reviewed. Papers must be submitted electronically through the JEMS conference management system at https://jems.sbc.org.br/evgm2007 (only PDF files are permitted). --Masum http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~zmhasan/ <http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~zmhasan/> http://wwwin-people.cisco.com/masum/ <http://wwwin-people.cisco.com/masum/> (Intranet)
