ABOUT AI4Sys
AI/ML are being incorporated into all aspects of the scientific and engineering process. One early effort area has been to augment existing autonomic system components with AI models that can offer finer-grained and continuously updated automation behavior. Work has been done to try to predict IO behavior to enable more efficient machine throughput, log monitoring to detect patterns that may reveal either security concerns or faulty components that fail in consistent, but unusual ways, and to manage applications and caches to better address the system as a whole rather than at an individual component level.  All of these, and many more, system-related tasks address a complex, sometimes intractable problem, and seek to use AI tools to offer better solutions than either heuristics or point solutions that have existed previously.

CALL FOR PAPERS
----------------------------------------
 
This workshop solicits novel work that explores how to effectively incorporate AI into system management and monitoring, particularly for complex systems that support scientific and engineering workloads (i.e., cloud and HPC). Areas of interest and domains of work include, but are not limited to:
 
1) tools and runtimes for incorporating AI into systems
2) privacy and security concerns for managing system data used for model creation
3) continuous model evolution and the impacts of chasing current workloads on a dynamic system
4) AI algorithms for systems problems
5) Subsystem related optimizations including operating systems, data migration, storage, job management, resource allocation, and related topics
6) Position and experience papers on using AI in systems
 
Papers will be in the ACM conference format no more than 5 pages long including everything except references.
