Hi everyone,

The Distributed Algorithms and Systems Group at IST Austria has an open
postdoctoral position. The position is part of the ScaleML ERC Starting
Grant project, whose goal is to develop new theory, algorithms, and systems
for scalable machine learning.
For an overview of the project, including existing publications, see either
our project home page (https://scaleml.pages.ist.ac.at/research/) or my
SIROCCO talk describing some of our work (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zU4vaoFpLKA).

The Edsger W. Dijkstra Prize in Distributed Computing is named for
Edsger Wybe Dijkstra (1930-2002), a pioneer in the area of distributed
computing. His foundational work on concurrency, semaphores, mutual
exclusion, deadlock, finding shortest paths in graphs,
fault-tolerance, self-stabilization, among many other contributions
comprises one of the most important supports upon which the field of
distributed computing is built. No other individual has had a larger

The First International Workshop on Hot Topics in
Container Networking and Networked Systems (HotConNet'17)
Introduction:

Containerization technology is being adopted quickly by the software industry because it offers fast deployment, good portability, and high resource efficiency to run large-scale and distributed systems. For example, many large Internet companies, e.g. Google, Yelp and AirBnB, etc., have intensively used containers to speed up the development of their applications and platform. The ecosystem of containerization is also rapidly growing. For instance, operating system providers like Microsoft and RedHat have released features to support Docker/container in Windows and Linux respectively; cloud providers like AWS,

3rd Workshop on Security and Privacy in Social Networks

Call for Papers

Third International Workshop on Security and Privacy in Social Networks 2012 (SPSN-2012) in conjunction with IEEE SocialCom 2012, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, September 3-6, 2012
http://spsn12.media.mit.edu/index.html

Scope of Workshop:

The workshop aims to bring to the forefront innovative approaches for analyzing and enhancing the security and privacy dimensions in online social networks. In order to facilitate the transition of such methods from theory to mechanisms designed and deployed in existing online social networking services, we need to create a common language between the researchers and practitioners of this new

NetEcon 2012
7th Workshop on the Economics of Networks, Systems, and Computation
Mar 30, 2012, held in conjunction with INFOCOM'12

The emergence of the Internet as a global platform for computation and
communication has sparked the development and deployment of many large-scale
networked systems. Often, these systems involve multiple stakeholders with
competing interests. Unmitigated selfish behavior in these systems can lead to
high inefficiency or even complete collapse. Research interest in the
application of economic and game-theoretic principles to the design and
analysis of networked systems has grown in recent years.

Multicore Programming Education 2009

Sunday, March 8, 2009, Washington DC, USA Co-located with ASPLOS 2009

Web info at
http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/~shanir/Workshop%20on%20Directions%20in%
20Multicore%20Programming%20Education.htm

The acceptance of multiprocessors as the mainstream computing
platform requires a fundamental change in the way we develop software.

This workshop will attempt to bring together researchers and
educators, with the goal of developing, through dialog, a
better understanding of the possible directions to take in
order to bring multicore programming education to the masses.
