The 2009 IEEE International Conference on Networking, Architecture, and Storage (NAS 2009) is to be held on July 9-11, 2009 in Zhang Jia Jie, China. It will serve as an international forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to discuss cutting edge research on networking (wired and wireless), high-performance computer architecture, and parallel and distributed data storage technologies. NAS 2009 will expose participants to the most recent developments in these interdisciplinary areas. NAS has been successfully hold in Chongqing in 2008 (NAS'08), Guilin in 2007(NAS'07), and Shenyang in 2006(NAS'06).
We have sent out the acceptance notification on April 13. If you have NOT received the notification, please let us know.

| Dr. Ethan Miller is a professor of computer science at the University of California, Santa Cruz, where he is the Associate Director of the Storage Systems Research Center (SSRC). He received his ScB from Brown in 1987 and his PhD from UC Berkeley in 1995, and has been on the UC Santa Cruz faculty since 2000. He has written over 90 papers covering topics such as archival storage, file systems for high-end computing, metadata and information retrieval, file systems performance, secure file systems, and distributed systems. His current research projects, which are funded by the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy via the Petascale Data Storage Institute, and industry support for the SSRC, include long-term archival storage systems, metadata, indexing, and security for petabyte-scale storage systems, and file systems for non-volatile RAM technologies. Prof. Miller's broader interests include file systems, parallel and distributed systems, operating systems, and computer security. In addition to research and teaching in storage systems and operating systems, Prof. Miller has worked with industry to help move research results into commercial use at companies such as Symantec and NetApp. | |
