Second Workshop on I/O Virtualization (WIOV '10)
The Second Workshop on I/O Virtualization (WIOV '10) will be held in conjunction with ASPLOS 2010 and VEE 2010 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, March 13th, 2010. Following the success of the First Workshop on I/O Virtualization (WIOV '08), this one-day workshop is again meant to provide a forum to discuss the challenges of I/O virtualization that cut across the virtual machine monitor, guest operating system, processor, memory subsystem, and I/O subsystem. In that spirit, we welcome papers that describe new challenges in I/O virtualization, papers that describe novel approaches to solving known problems in I/O virtualization, and papers describing real world experiences in the area of I/O virtualization. The final program will consist of both reviewed submissions and invited talks. The invited talks will focus on open problems in I/O virtualization and be accessible to a broad audience.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Networking, storage, graphics, and any other form of I/O
- Hardware support for I/O virtualization
- Novel I/O device architectures for virtualization
- Novel software approaches to I/O virtualization
- Software methods for I/O device emulation
- Para-virtualized I/O device driver design for virtualization
- Virtual machine monitors I/O subsystems
