<p>NSDI focuses on the design principles, implementation, and practical evaluation of networked and distributed systems, and will bring together researchers to foster a broad approach to addressing overlapping research challenges.</p>
<p>The 3-day technical session program includes paper presentations on:</p>
<ul>
<li>Datacenter Networks</li>
<li>Debugging Complex Systems</li>
<li>Software Verification and Testing</li>
<li>Security and Privacy</li>
<li>Data Storage and Analytics</li>
<li>Interpreting Signals</li>
<li>Improving Throughput and Latency</li>
<li>In-Memory Computing and Caching</li>
<li>Scalable Networking</li>
<li>New Programming Abstractions</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>NEW FOR 2014</strong>: The Operational Systems Track session. Rather than pure research results, papers in this session describe the design and experience with large-scale, operational systems and networks. They offer a behind-the-scenes look at real networked systems, which is otherwise hard to come by. The session includes papers that describes the design of Nicira/VMWare’s network virtualization system, experience with disk imaging in a multi-tenant data center, and design and experience with operating a VPN-based peer-to-peer system to bypass government censors.<br /> <br /> View the <strong><a
