*Call for Papers:*
Next generation cloud systems will require a paradigm shift in how they are
constructed and managed. Conventional control and management platforms are
facing considerable challenges regarding flexibility, dependability and
security that next generation systems will require. The cloud computing
paradigm has gone part of the way towards alleviating some of the problems
associated with resource allocation, utilization and managements (e.g., via
elasticity). However, many of the elements of a well-designed cloud
environment remain "stiff" and hard to modify and adapt in an integrated
fashion. This includes underlying networking topologies, many aspects of
the user control over IaaS, PaaS or SaaS layers when such is needed,
construction of XaaS services, provenance and meta-data collection, and so
on. In many situations the problem may be because service abstraction is
inadequate. Software Defined Systems (SDS) are systems that have added
software components which help abstract actual IT equipment and other
layers. One classical example, of course, are hypervisors. Such separation
provides a great opportunity for system administrators to more easily
construct and managing their systems through flexible software layers.
Software Defined Systems include Software Defined Networking (SDN),
Software Defined Storage, Software Defined Servers (Virtualization),
Software Defined Datacenters (SDD), Software Defined Security (SDSec), and
ultimately Software Defined Clouds (SDCloud) to name a few possibilities.
Individual solutions and seamless integration of these abstractions remains
in many respects a challenge. After the high success of the previous
editions (SDS'2014, SDS'2015, SDS'2016, SDS'2017 and SDS'2018), The sixth
International conference on Software Defined Systems 2019 (SDS'2019) will
continue to be a forum for scientists, researchers, students, and
practitioners to present their latest research results, ideas, and
developments in the area of software defined systems – both components and
their integration - and by implication advancement of next generation
clouds.
SDS 2019 aims to investigate the opportunities and in all aspects of
Software Defined Systems. In addition, it seeks for novel contributions
that help mitigating SDS challenges. That is, the objective of SDS 2019 is
to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss
and exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of
Software Defined Systems.
Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions in all
major areas, which include, but not limited to:
* Software Defined Systems support for Cloud Computing.
* Software Defined Networking (SDN).
* SDN concepts, architecture, and APIs.
* Network Virtualization

*Submission:*
Papers selected for presentation will appear in the SDS Proceedings, which
will be submitted to IEEE Xplore for inclusion. Papers must be 8 pages in
IEEE format, 10pt font using the IEEE 8.5" x 11" two-column format, single
space, A4 format. All papers should be in PDF format, and submitted
electronically at Paper Submission Link. A full paper must not exceed the
stated length (including all figures, tables and references).
Submitted papers must present original unpublished research that is not
currently under review for any other conference or journal. Papers not
following these guidelines may be rejected without review. Also submissions
received after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately
structured may also not be considered. Authors may contact the Program
Chair for further information or clarification.
