Now is the time for Sunday Workshop abstract submission! The Sunday Workshops are six concurrent morning and afternoon sessions held on Sunday, December 7, 2008 before the 34th Annual International Conference in Las Vegas, NV.
IT professionals responsible for today’s computing environments know the only constant is change. To address this, CMG Sunday Workshops are intended to improve attendees’ skills in load and stress testing, benchmarking, performance optimization, software performance engineering, resource management, capacity analysis, simulation and analytic modeling and cost management.
We ask for Workshops that focus not only on performance and capacity issues, but also on any technologies, disciplines, techniques, and approaches related to Systems Management or Information Systems. This year we are particularly focusing on virtualization, visualization, and ITIL, so Workshops on those topics are especially encouraged.
We are also asking for "How To" workshops that explain how to apply popular tools and products to important performance & capacity tasks. "How To" workshops are meant to educate performance professionals in the application of commercially available technology.
Submissions at all levels are requested: tutorial, technical, managerial and leading edge. We require PowerPoint slides with speaker’s notes prior to the conference in time for publication in the workshop book. Workshops are traditionally 3 hours in length, plus a half hour break.
Sample Subject Areas:
- z/OS
- IBM virtualization
- Microsoft .NET performance
- Linux performance tuning
- UNIX performance tools
- Web performance
- Service Oriented Architecture
- ITIL
- Data presentation
