      o Binary translation and optimization
      o Novel techniques and applications of interpreters
      o Automatic resource and memory management
      o Virtualization for security and reliability
      o Virtualization technologies for grid computing
      o Virtualization technologies for parallel computing
      o Virtual machine monitors
      o Operating system support for virtualization
      o Management technologies for virtual environments
      o Large-scale virtual environments
      o Virtual Storage
      o Virtualization technologies for desktop applications
      o Applications that use virtualization in novel ways
      o Other experiences with virtual execution environments

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES


      Papers must be formatted according to the ACM proceedings format and
      should be no longer than 10 pages in this format. This 10-page limit
      includes everything (i.e., it is the total length of the paper).
      The formatting rules will be strictly enforced, and papers that do
      not conform to them may be automatically rejected by the program
      chairs. Templates for the ACM proceedings format can be found at:


              http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html


      Submissions should be in PDF and printable on US Letter-sized paper.


      Submitted papers must describe work unpublished in venues with a
      formal proceedings, and not currently submitted for publication
      elsewhere. See the SIGPLAN republication policy for more details:


              http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/republicationpolicy.htm


      Authors of accepted papers will be required to sign ACM copyright
      release forms. Proceedings will be published by ACM Press.




PAPER EVALUATION


      The program committee will evaluate the technical contribution of
      each submission as well as its general accessibility to the VEE
      audience. Papers will be judged on significance, originality,
      relevance, correctness, and clarity. The abstract and introduction
      must be written so that they can be understood by an audience with
      varied expertise. The paper should clearly identify what has been
      accomplished, why it is significant, and how it compares with
      previous work. Papers in new areas or novel approaches to existing
      areas are especially encouraged. It is acceptable for papers in new
      areas to contain fewer quantitative evaluations and comparisons than
      those in more established areas. Suggestions on how to prepare a
      good submission can be found at the following two web sites:
