| [PLUG] USENIX LISA '12 Submission Deadline Approaching |
It's almost here! The submission deadline for the 26th Large Installation System Administration Conference (LISA '12) is less than a month away. Please submit your abstracts and proposals by May 17, 2012. The Call for Participation (CFP), with submission guidelines and sample topics, can be found on the USENIX Web site at: http://www.usenix.org/lisa12/ The annual LISA conference is the meeting place of choice for system administrators, IT architects, and IT engineers. The conference provides a rich mix of technical training by industry experts, dynamic talks that inspire attendees to think beyond today, panel discussions for debate of current issues, ask-the-expert guru sessions, and presentations by people like you who introduce the next generation of methods and solutions. The conference's diverse participants are matched by an equally broad spectrum of activities: * Refereed papers https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/papers * Practice and experience reports https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/per * New this year! We include a review and response period for authors of papers and practice and experience reports (PERs) to provide better transparency in the review process and to increase authors' chances of acceptance into the conference. * Talks https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/talks * Guru sessions https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/guru * Lightning talks https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/lightning * Poster session: https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/posters In addition, LISA welcomes proposals for the following: * Workshops https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/workshops * The training program https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/training * Birds-of-a-Feather sessions (BoFs) https://www.usenix.org/lisa12/bofs LISA '12 takes place December 9-14, 2012, in San Diego, CA.
