Abstract :
ISPASS has established itself as a premier, high-quality conference in performance analysis of systems and software. This tradition continues in 2011. The program chair, and his program committee composed an excellent conference program with both regular papers and several posters. All papers have gone through a rigorous review process which has led to this high-quality program. I would like to sincerely thank our keynote speakers, Ravi Iyer (Intel) and Pradip Bose (IBM TJ Watson), for giving a keynote presentation as part of the technical program.
