===============================================================
We are pleased to announce the third Workshop on Challenges and Opportunities 
of Efficient and Performant Storage Systems (CHEOPS'23). CHEOPS'23 will be 
hosted in conjunction with EuroSys'23. 

The third workshop on "Challenges and Opportunities of Efficient and Performant 
Storage Systems" (CHEOPS) is aimed at researchers, developers of scientific 
applications, engineers and everyone interested in the evolution of storage 
systems. As the developments of computing power, storage and network 
technologies continue to diverge, the bandwidth performance gap between them 
widens. This trend, combined with the ever growing data volumes and data-driven 
computing such as machine learning, results in I/O and storage limitations, 
impacting the scalability and efficiency of current and future computing 
systems. Some of these challenges are quantitative, such as scale to match 
exascale system requirements, or latency reduction of the software stack to 
efficiently integrate new generations of hardware like storage class memory 
(SCM). Some other issues are more subtle and arise with the increased 
complexity of the storage solutions, like new smarter and more potent data 
management tools, monitoring systems or interoperability between I/O components 
or data formats.

The main objective of this workshop is to discuss state-of-the-art research, 
innovative ideas and experiences that focus on the design and implementation of 
storage systems in both academic and industrial worlds.

Topics of Interest
------------------------
Submissions may be more hands-on than research papers and we therefore 
explicitly encourage submissions in the early stages of research. Topics of 
interest include, but are not limited to:

- Operating system optimizations
- Kernel and user space file/storage systems
     • Including virtual file systems
- Cloud, parallel and distributed file/storage systems
     • Network challenges, such as scalability, QoS and partitionability
- Approaches for low-latency and heterogeneous storage systems
     • Such as SCM and NVRAM combined with HDDs
- Metadata management
- Provenance capture and management
- Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
     • Storage requirements of ML and AI applications
     • Using ML and AI within storage systems (e.g., to replace heuristics)
- Hybrid solutions using file systems and databases
     • Approaches using query and database interfaces, including key-value 
stores
     • Optimized indexing techniques
- Data organizations to support online workflows
- Data privacy and data security
- Domain-specific data management solutions
     • Application I/O characterization
- Storage systems modeling and analysis tools
- Data reduction techniques
     • Lossless and lossy compression, deduplication
- UI/UX for storage systems
- Related experiences from users: what worked, what didn’t?
     • Feedback and empirical evaluation of storage systems

Paper Submissions 
---------------------------
All papers need to be submitted electronically through HotCRP with PDF format 
through the following link: https://cheops23.hotcrp.com/ 
<https://cheops23.hotcrp.com/>. The reviewing process will be double blind with 
at least 3 reviews for each submission. An online discussion will determine 
which papers to accept.

Only original and novel work not currently under review in other venues will be 
considered for publication. Submissions can either be full papers (6 pages) or 
short papers (4 pages). The page count includes the title, text, figures, 
appendices but excludes the references. The papers must be formatted according 
to the submission rules of EuroSys. 

Accepted papers will have to comply with the EuroSys proceedings format. One 
author of each accepted paper is required to register for the workshop and 
present the paper. Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for 
publication in the ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review journal.
