Join us in San Francisco, CA, April 16-18, for NSDI '08. The 5th USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation focuses on the design and implementation principles of large-scale networks and distributed systems.

This year's outstanding program includes 30 technical papers carefully selected from a pool of 175 submissions. These high-quality papers represent a diverse range of hot research areas including energy, scale, security, and fault tolerance.

NSDI '08 will feature a poster session during which attendees can discuss emerging ideas in networked systems design by talking with leading researchers who are introducing their ongoing work. To submit a poster, please send a proposal, one page or less, by March 10, 2008, to nsdi08posters@usenix.org. The poster session co-chairs will send back decisions by March 23, 2008.
