- Model-driven performance engineering
- Performance modeling and prediction
- Performance measurement and experimental analysis
- Benchmarks (workloads, scenarios, and implementations)
- Run-time performance and capacity management
- Performance in cloud, virtualized, and multi-core systems
- Performance-driven resource and power management
- Performance of big data systems
- Performance modeling and evaluation in other domains
- Performance requirements specification
- Performance testing and validation
- Relationship between performance engineering and architecture
- All other topics related to performance engineering
- Education of other quantitative attributes such as reliability,
availability, power
consumption, safety, security and survivability
ARTICLE SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
A variety of contribution styles for papers are solicited including:
two-page abstracts,
presentation, basic and applied research papers for novel scientific
insights, industrial
and experience papers reporting on education and or practice of the
application of
performance engineering or benchmarks in practice, and
work-in-progress/vision papers for
ongoing but yet interesting work. Different acceptance criteria apply
based on the
expected content of the individual contribution types.

Lieber Julian,
Danke für die Rückmeldung.
Ich würde es zuerst bei ISC2021 versuchen, da wir bis 14 Dezember Zeit haben https://www.isc-hpc.com/research-papers-2021.html und wenn es nicht klappt, dann beim HotCloudPerf.
Was meinst du?
Viele Grüße,
Frank

Lieber Frank.
Wir können ein Paper zu einer Zeit nur bei einer Venue einreichen.
Aber falls das abgelehnt wird, dann gleich beim nächsten...
Beste Grüße,
Julian

habe übrigens das Paper ein bisschen umstrukturiert, s3embed und die Ergebnisse für wasabi, ibm und google storage aufgenommen.
Spricht was dagegen, wenn wir es bei mehreren Workshops einreichen ?

=== The Fourth Workshop on Hot Topics in Cloud Computing Performance ===
(HotCloudPerf-2021)
“Focus Theme: Benchmarking in the Cloud.”
https://hotcloudperf.spec.org
VENUE: Held in conjunction with ICPE, April 19 or 20, 2021, Rennes, France.
Contact: hotcloudperf2021[at]easychair.org<http://easychair.org>
IMPORTANT DATES (Anywhere on Earth)
January 15, 2021 Abstract due (informative)
January 20, 2021 Papers due
February 11, 2021 Author Notification
February 22, 2021 Camera-ready deadline
April 19 or 20, 2021 Workshop Day
WORKSHOP THEME AND BACKGROUND
Cloud computing is emerging as one of the most profound changes in the
way we build and use IT. The use of global services in public clouds
is increasing, and the lucrative and rapidly growing global cloud
market already supports over 1 million IT-related jobs. However, it is
currently challenging to make the IT services offered by public and
private clouds performant (in an extended sense) and efficient.
Emerging architectures, techniques, and real-world systems include
hybrid deployment, serverless operation, everything as a service,
complex workflows, auto-scaling and -tiering, etc. It is unclear to
which extent traditional performance engineering, software
engineering, and system design and analysis tools can help with
understanding and engineering these emerging technologies. The
community also needs practical tools and powerful methods to address
hot topics in cloud computing performance.
Responding to this need, the HotCloudPerf workshop proposes a meeting
venue for academics and practitioners, from experts to trainees, in
the field of cloud computing performance. The workshop aims to engage
this community, and to lead to the development of new methodological
aspects for gaining deeper understanding not only of cloud
performance, but also of cloud operation and behavior, through diverse
quantitative evaluation tools, including benchmarks, metrics, and
workload generators. The workshop focuses on novel cloud properties
such as elasticity, performance isolation, dependability, and other
non-functional system properties, in addition to classical
performance-related metrics such as response time, throughput,
scalability, and efficiency.
Each year, the workshop chooses a focus theme to explore; for 2021,
the theme is “benchmarking in the cloud.” Articles focusing on this
topic are particularly encouraged for HotCloudPerf-2021.
The HotCloudPerf workshop is technically sponsored by the Standard
Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC)’s Research Group (RG), and
is organized annually by the RG Cloud Group. HotCloudPerf has emerged
from the series of yearly meetings organized by the RG Cloud Group,
since 2013. The RG Cloud Group group is taking a broad approach,
relevant for both academia and industry, to cloud benchmarking,
quantitative evaluation, and experimental analysis.
WORKSHOP SCOPE AND TOPICS
Topics of the focus-theme for 2021 is “Benchmarking in the Cloud”.
Articles focusing on this topic are particularly encouraged for
HotCloudPerf-2021. Long-running topics of the HotCloudPerf workshop
include, but are not limited to:
1. Empirical performance studies in cloud computing environments,
applications, and systems, including observation, measurement, and
surveys.
2. Comparative performance studies and benchmarking of cloud
environments, applications, and systems.
3. Performance analysis using modeling and queueing theory for cloud
environments, applications, and systems.
4. Simulation-based studies for all aspects of cloud computing performance.
5. Tuning and auto-tuning of systems operating in cloud environments,
e.g., auto-scaling of resources and auto-tiering of data, optimized
resource deployment.
6. Software patterns and architectures for engineering cloud
performance, e.g., serverless.
7. Experience with and analysis of performance of cloud deployment
models, including IaaS/PaaS/SaaS/FaaS.
8. End-to-end performance engineering for pipelines and workflows in
cloud environments, or of applications with non-trivial SLAs.
9. Tools for monitoring and studying cloud computing performance.
10. General and specific methods and methodologies for understanding
and engineering cloud performance.
11. Serverless computing platforms and microservices in cloud datacenters.
ARTICLE SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
We solicit the following types of contributions:
* Talk only: Extended abstract limited to 1-2 pages (without
formatting restrictions)
* Full paper limited to 6 pages (double column, ACM conference format)
* Short paper limited to 3 pages (double column, ACM conference format)
Contributions in the 1st category (as Talk only) may have already been
(partially) presented at other events or in publications and are not
included in the conference proceedings. Contributions in the 2nd and
3rd category (technical papers) must represent original and
unpublished work that is not currently under review. Full papers may
report on original research, lessons learned from realizing an
approach, or experiences on transferring a research prototype into
practice. Short papers may report on work-in-progress, a tool/demo, or
present a vision or position motivating the community to address new
challenges.
Articles and talk only contributions are required to be submitted via
the EasyChair system of HotCloudPerf-2021:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hotcloudperf2021
Articles must use the ACM conference format. Each valid submission
will receive at least three (3) peer reviews. Articles must use the
ACM conference format. Each valid submission will receive at least
three (3) peer reviews. Presented papers will be published by ACM and
included in the ACM Digital Library. Adhering to ACM guidelines for
conferences, ICPE requires that at least one author of each accepted
paper attends (in person or remote) the workshop and presents the paper.
COVID-19 TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS: The organizing committee is working hard
to put together a great HotCloudPerf (and ICPE), and to welcome you in
Rennes. At this point, however, due to the uncertainty around the
COVID pandemic, we cannot guarantee this is possible. We also
recognize the challenges some of our community members might face in
travelling. Therefore, currently, the conference model is on-site with
remote participation facilities - meaning, we are looking forward to a
live event, but will provide the required infrastructure for online
presence. For more information, pelase contact us:
