ACM Transactions on Storage (TOS) is the premier journal for publishing advancements in data storage research and practice. Storage systems, from small IoT devices and handhelds to massive geo-distributed clouds, are critical to managing the world's data and drive advances in computing. Storage is a broad, evolving, and multidisciplinary field and designing, developing, and deploying storage systems continues to be a challenge due to ever-changing software and hardware, new and more complex workloads, exponential data growth, and conflicting demands like performance, costs, reliability, and security. ACM TOS brings together experts from multiple disciplines to provide a high quality, peer-reviewed, comprehensive journal focused broadly on storage.
ACM TOS welcomes submissions on storage systems research including networked and distributed systems, operating systems and virtualization, file systems, resource management, data backup and archival, availability and reliability, hardware devices, performance management, security and privacy, coding theory, and energy efficiency and sustainability.
