Welcome to the fifth International Workshop on Network-aware Data Management (NDM'15), to be held on November 16, 2015, in conjunction with the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis (SC'15), in Austin, Texas, USA.
The goal of this half-day workshop is to promote new collaborations between data management and networking communities to develop intelligent networking middleware and efficient data management infrastructure. As current technology enables faster storage devices and larger interconnect bandwidth, there is a substantial need for novel system design and middleware architecture to address increasing latency and scalability requirements. Topics of interest include emerging trends in resource coordination, data-aware scheduling, storage technologies, end-to-end performance, network-aware workflow management, high-performance networking, and network virtualization.

Many scientific domains, such as climate science and High Energy Physics (HEP), have data management requirements that are not well supported by the IP network architecture. Named Data Networking (NDN) is a new network architecture whose service model ...

This paper describes our experience in deploying a multidomain Software-Defined Network (SDN) that supports dynamic Layer-2 (L2) path service, and offers insights gained from this experience. SDN controllers, capable of handling requests for advance-...
Approximate causal consistency for partially replicated geo-replicated cloud storage
In geo-replicated systems and the cloud, data replication provides fault tolerance and low latency. Causal consistency in such systems is an interesting consistency model. Most existing works assume the data is fully replicated because this greatly ...
Design and implementation of control sequence generator for SDN-enhanced MPI

MPI (Message Passing Interface) offers a suite of APIs for inter-process communication among parallel processes. We have approached to the acceleration of MPI collective communication such as MPI_Bcast and MPI_Allreduce, taking advantage of network ...
Hysteresis-based optimization of data transfer throughput
The achievable throughput for a data transfer can be determined by a variety of factors such as network bandwidth, round trip time, background traffic, dataset size, and end-system configuration. For the best-effort optimization of the transfer ...
