CALL FOR PAPERS
Java[tm] Virtual Machine Research and Technology Symposium (JVM '01)
April 23-24, 2001
Monterey, California, USA
For the first Java Virtual Machine Research and Technology Symposium,
we invite the submission of quality papers describing research or
experiences with the Java Virtual Machine. Research papers should
describe original work that offers significant contributions to the
state of JVMs. Experience papers should describe general insights gained
from porting, integrating, or tuning JVMs. Submitted papers should
make substantial contributions to the field and should be useful to
researchers and practitioners alike.
This symposium will have 2 days of technical sessions, made up of a
Keynote Address, Refereed Papers, and a Work in Progress session.
JVM '01 emphasizes research and advanced engineering aspects of the
Java Virtual Machine, focusing on experimental research. The Symposium
Proceedings, containing all refereed papers, will be distributed to
attendees and, following the symposium, will be available online to
USENIX members and for purchase.
Awards will be given at the symposium for the best paper and for the
best paper that is primarily the work of a student.
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper submissions due: November 1, 2000
Notification of acceptance: December 15, 2000
Camera-ready final papers due: February 27, 2001
Symposium begins: April 23, 2001
CONFERENCE ORGANIZERS
Program Chair
Saul Wold, Sun Microsystems
Program Committee
Tony Cocchi, IBM
Urs Hoelzle, University of California - Santa Barbara
Juergen Kreileder, The Blackdown Project
Tim Lindholm, Sun Microsystems
Matt Welsh, University of California - Berkeley
TOPICS
Relevant topics for JVM '01 include, but are not limited to the following:
Alternate VM implementation
Hardware implementation
JITs and Execution Engines
Security and VM issues
Garbage Collection techniques
Small JVM (á la JavaCard)
Large JVM and Server Issues (scalability and availability)
Porting Experience Improvements
Performance Issues and Tuning Techniques
Questions about the relevance of a topic may be addressed to the Program
Chair at jvm01chair@usenix.org
WHAT TO SUBMIT
Submissions should be full papers, 10 to 14 pages (around 5,000-6,000
words) in length. Papers that are too long or are late will be rejected.
All submissions will be judged on originality, significance, relevance,
correctness, and clarity. Each submission must include the paper title,
the contact author, email and regular addresses, and a phone number. For
more information, please read these detailed author guidelines.
The JVM symposium, like most conferences and journals, requires that
papers not be submitted simultaneously to any other conference or
publication, that submissions not be previously published, and that
accepted papers not be subsequently published elsewhere for a year from
date of acceptance by USENIX. Papers accompanied by non-disclosure
agreement forms are not acceptable and will be returned to the author(s)
unread. All submissions are held in the highest confidentiality prior
to publication in the Proceedings, both as a matter of policy and in
accord with the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976.
HOW TO SUBMIT
Web-based electronic submission will be expected. Submissions should
be in Postscript that is interpretable by Ghostscript or in PDF that
is interpretable by Acroread, and should be printable on US Letter
sized paper. A Web form for submissions will be available in April
on the symposium Web site at: http://www.usenix.org/events/jvm01.
All submissions will be acknowledged.
Submitters for whom web submission is a hardship should contact
the Program Chairs for alternative means of submission at
jvm01chair@usenix.org.
WORK IN PROGRESS REPORTS
For this JVM Symposium we will include a session on "work in progress"
(WIP) to introduce new ideas to the community and solicit early
feedback. We are particularly interested in the presentation of student
work and bleeding edge VM implementation and intergration in both software
and hardware. WIP abstracts will be lightly screened to facilitate
focused discussions during the session. The submission process for WIP
abstracts will begin in January 2001. Full submission information will
be available at the symposium Web site.
BIRDS-OF-A-FEATHER-SESSIONS
Birds-of-a-Feather sessions (BoFs) are very informal gatherings organized
by attendees interested in a particular topic. BoFs will be held in
the evening. BoFs may be scheduled in advance by phoning the Conference
Office at +1 (949) 588-8649 or via email to conference@usenix.org. BoFs
may also be scheduled at the symposium.
REGISTRATION MATERIALS
Materials containing all details of the technical and tutorial programs,
registration fees and forms, and hotel information will be available
by January 2001 at the symposium Web site. If you wish to receive the
registration materials in print, please contact:
