Abstract

The 6th Workshop on Large-Scale Distributed Systems and Middleware was held July 18 and 19 on the island of Madeira, Portugal, co-located with the ACM Symposium on Principles Of Distributed Computing (PODC). LADIS brings together researchers and professionals to discuss new trends and techniques in distributed systems and middlewares which surface in large scale data centers, cloud computing, web services, and other important systems. This year, all LADIS contributions were by invitation only and underwent one round of reviews for quality assurance and providing constructive feedback to the authors. Each paper received five reviews. As is tradition for LADIS, we also invited keynote speakers from academia and industry. The keynote speakers were invited to provide abstracts. As in previous years, we invited the authors of four of the abstracts to provide full papers for a special ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review issue. These abstracts were selected based on rankings provided by the reviewers. The selected papers received three more detailed reviews and you see before you the revisions that resulted. Below, we provide a short report of the workshop itself. Scott Shenker (UC Berkeley and ICSI) started the workshop with a keynote presentation on Software Defined Networking (SDN), which was held before a joint audience of LADIS and PODC participants. Scott described the current lack of natural abstractions in the network control plane and how SDN tries to address this shortcoming. The concept is to provide modularity and standardization to network control to simplify management and encourage experimentation. OpenFlow is a well-known instantiation of SDN. The keynote was followed by two SDN-related presentations on cloud networking. Paulo Costa of Imperial College London argued that the traditional separation between applications and networks has to be revisited for modern datacenters. He described his CamCube project that has developed a programmable torus-shaped network for a datacenter, and is now proposing a research agenda called NetworkAs-A-Service. The full paper is included in this issue. Theo

2012年LADIS研讨会报告

第六届大规模分布式系统和中间件研讨会于7月18日和19日在葡萄牙马德拉岛举行，与ACM分布式计算原理研讨会(PODC)同期举行。LADIS将研究人员和专业人士聚集在一起，讨论分布式系统和中间件的新趋势和技术，这些趋势和技术出现在大规模数据中心、云计算、web服务和其他重要系统中。今年，LADIS的所有投稿都只接受邀请，并经过一轮审查，以保证质量，并向作者提供建设性的反馈。每篇论文有五篇审稿。按照LADIS的传统，我们还邀请了来自学术界和工业界的主讲人。主讲人被邀请提供摘要。与前几年一样，我们邀请了其中四篇摘要的作者为一期ACM SIGOPS操作系统评论特刊提供全文。这些摘要是根据审稿人提供的排名选择的。被选中的论文接受了三次更详细的审查，你会看到结果的修改。下面，我们提供一份关于研讨会本身的简短报告。Scott Shenker (UC Berkeley和ICSI)以一个关于软件定义网络(SDN)的主题演讲开始了研讨会，该研讨会在LADIS和PODC参与者的共同听众面前举行。Scott描述了当前网络控制平面缺乏自然抽象，以及SDN如何尝试解决这个缺点。其概念是为网络控制提供模块化和标准化，以简化管理并鼓励实验。OpenFlow是一个众所周知的SDN实例。主题演讲之后是两个与sdn相关的云网络演讲。伦敦帝国理工学院的保罗·科斯塔认为，应用程序和网络之间的传统分离必须重新考虑现代数据中心。他介绍了他的CamCube项目，该项目为数据中心开发了一个可编程的环形网络，现在正在提出一个名为NetworkAs-A-Service的研究议程。全文包含在本期中。西奥
