Networking is one of the most crucial components in the overall system architecture of a data centric environment. Many of the current solutions both in industry and scientific domains depend on the underlying network infrastructure and its performance. There is a need for efficient use of the networking middleware to address increasing data and compute requirements. Main scope of this workshop is to promote new collaborations between data management and networking communities to evaluate emerging trends and current technological developments, and to discuss future design principles of network-aware data management. We will seek contribution from academia, government, and industry to address current research and development efforts in remote data access mechanisms, end-to-end resource coordination, network virtualization, analysis and management frameworks, practical experiences, data-center networking, and performance problems in high-bandwidth networks. http://2014.ndm-meeting.org SUMMARY:NDM'14: Fourth International workshop on Network-Aware Data Management PRIORITY:3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
