Tracing Summit 2014 – Call for Presentations

We are organizing a tracing summit in Düsseldorf, Germany, on October 13, 2014, at the Congress Centre Düsseldorf. This event is colocated with LinuxCon Europe 2014.

This event focuses on the tracing area, gathering people involved in development and end-users of tracing tools as well as trace analysis tools.

The main target of this Tracing Summit is to provide room for discussion between people in the various areas that benefit from tracing, namely parallel, distributed and/or real-time systems, as well as kernel development.

If you are interested to present, please submit a proposal to submission@tracingsummit.org before August 31, 2014, at 23:59 EST. Please provide a title, abstract describing the proposed talk

(900 characters maximum), short biography (900 characters maximum), and describe the targeted audience (900 characters maximum).

We are welcoming presentations from both end users and developers, on topics covering, but not limited to:

  • Trace collection and extraction,
  • Trace filtering,
  • Trace aggregation,
  • Trace formats,
  • Tracing multi-core systems,
  • Trace abstraction,
  • Trace modeling,
  • Automated trace analysis (e.g. dependency analysis),
  • Tracing large clusters and distributed systems,
  • Hardware-level tracing (e.g. DSP, GPU, bare-metal),
  • Trace visualisation,
  • Interaction between debugging and tracing,
  • Tracing remote control,
  • Analysis of large trace datasets,
  • Cloud trace collection and analysis,
  • Integration between trace tools,
  • Live tracing & monitoring.

Those can cover recently available technologies, ongoing work, and yet non-existing technologies (which are compellingly interesting to end-users).

There is a single track, containing presentations between 30 and 45 minutes per subject with discussion.

Registration to LinuxCon Europe 2014 or CloudOpen Europe 2014 is required in order to register to the Tracing Summit 2014. All registration passes, including the new Attendee Networking Pass

registration, will allow you to register for the Tracing Summit. The Tracing Summit registration access code will be provided on your LinuxCon/CloudOpen registration confirmation page.

The Tracing Summit 2014 has no entrance fees for LinuxCon/CouldOpen attendees.

We recommend you register to either or both events before August 1st, 2014 to benefit from early registration fees.
