LISA18 Call for Participation

Sponsored by USENIX, the Advanced Computing Systems Association.

LISA18 will take place October 29–31, 2018, at the Omni Nashville Hotel in Nashville, TN, USA.

LISA is the premier conference for operations professionals, where sysadmins, systems engineers, IT operations professionals, SRE practitioners, developers, IT managers, and academic researchers share real-world knowledge about designing, building, securing, and maintaining the critical systems of our interconnected world.

Call for Participation

We invite both industry leaders and people on the front lines to propose topics that demonstrate the present and future of operations. LISA submissions should inspire and motivate attendees toward action that improves their day-to-day work as well as the tech industry as a whole. We encourage submissions from people who represent a wide range of backgrounds and industries.

Note that USENIX only accepts vendor-neutral proposals. If you wish to promote a product at LISA, please contact our Sponsorship Department.

Both presenters and organizers may withdraw or decline proposals for any reason, even after initial acceptance. Submissions must come from the speaker. USENIX does not accept submissions made through PR firms and other third parties. Companies are blinded during the review process.
