The TSM Symposium 2005 is an ideal opportunity this year for help in "Facing the Future" in storage management with TSM. In September, Oxford University is hosting the TSM Symposium which will be held (once again) in St Catherine's College. This will enable you to keep up with the latest features, gain tips on upgrading existing archive and backup services and learn how to exploit new functionality. There will be plenty of opportunities to gain technical insight into TSM, with presentations from IBM Development, contributions from experienced and established users as well as the chance to meet other like-minded souls. How to make a contribution We are seeking technical contributions in the form of papers and presentations from the TSM user community - the system managers and administrators who are arguably the real TSM experts - this is an excellent chance to share your knowledge and wisdom! Technical contributions from TSM solution architects and related storage vendors are also sought: this is an opportunity to demonstrate the flexibility and extensibility of TSM. In addition, there are excellent opportunities for exhibiting at the Symposium. Please see the Contributions web page for further details. Organisation of the TSM Symposium This user-led event has been initiated and organised by Oxford University Computing Services, and follows on from the previous events held at Oxford in 1999, 2001 and 2003. The technical agenda is being co-ordinated by: * Laura Buckley, Storage Solutions * Rolf Bogus, University of Heidelberg * Kirsten Glöer, Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe GmbH * Peter Jones, Oxford University * Peter Pijpelink, PLCS * Remco Post, SARA, Amsterdam * Sheelagh Treweek, Oxford University * Paul Zarnowski, Cornell University The symposium will be held at St Catherine's College, with early arrivals' registration opening on the afternoon of Monday 26 September 2005. The exhibitions will be open and the exhibitors will give their introductory presentations before hosting an evening reception. The symposium presentations will start on the following morning (Tuesday 27 September 2005) and conclude at lunchtime on Thursday 29 September 2005. Optional residential accommodation is available in en-suite rooms at the college and all meals are included. All arrangements will be handled through Oxford University Computing Services (please do not contact the college directly) and we can be contacted by email or web form (preferably) and also by phone or fax.
