Overview

NSDI focuses on the design principles, implementation, and practical evaluation of networked and distributed systems. Our goal is to bring together researchers from across the networking and systems community to foster a broad approach to addressing overlapping research challenges.

NSDI provides a high-quality forum for presenting results and discussing ideas that further the knowledge and understanding of the networked systems community as a whole, continue a significant research dialog, or push the architectural boundaries of network services.

Topics

NSDI invites any innovative solution for a significant problem involving networked systems, including topics from within the following list:

    Highly available and reliable networked systems
    Security and privacy of networked systems
    Distributed storage, caching, and query processing systems
    Sustainable, low-energy, and low-carbon networked systems
    Cloud/multi-tenant systems
    Mobile and embedded/sensor applications and systems
    Systems aspects of networking hardware and physical layer communication technologies
    Network and workload measurement systems
    Self-organizing, autonomous, and federated networked systems
    Managing, debugging, and diagnosing problems in networked systems
    Virtualization and resource management for networked systems
    Experience with deployed networked systems
    Networked systems for big data
    Testing and/or verification applied to networked systems
    Networked systems for machine learning (ML) and ML for networked systems

The following list is not exhaustive. That said, the program committee can reject any papers that they consider to be not in scope and relevant to the NSDI community during the review process. Please contact the PC chairs if you have questions about whether your paper would be in scope.
