Dr. Tamar Eilam, IBM Research

Dr. Tamar Eilam

Biography:

Dr. Tamar Eilam is an IBM Fellow and Chief Scientist for Sustainable Computing at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center in New York. She leads pioneering research aimed at drastically reducing the carbon footprint of computing across infrastructure, systems, software, data, and AI. Before focusing on Sustainable Computing, Dr. Eilam spearheaded innovative research to improve development and operations effectiveness. She earned her Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Technion, Israel, in 2000, joining IBM T.J. Watson Research Center as a Research Staff Member that same year. In recognition of her exceptional contributions, she was named an IBM Fellow in 2014 — the company’s highest technical distinction.

Scope and Topics of Interest

Information and communication technologies (ICT) are causing ever-growing energy consumption and carbon emissions. Software is at the center of ICT, from large-scale data centers to personal devices. Thus, improving the energy efficiency of the software is critical for reducing the energy footprint of ICT and contributing to sustainable development. DevOps has become the main principle for developing and operating modern software systems, which aims to enhance the velocity of releasing high-quality software through automation and integrating development and operations responsibilities. On the one hand, the fast DevOps release cycles pose significant challenges for ensuring the energy efficiency of software and its deployment environment. On the other hand, DevOps provides great opportunities for enhancing software sustainability, since the integration between development and operations allows for continuous collection and analytics of energy consumption data, which can be leveraged as feedback for optimizing the energy efficiency of software and its deployment environment.

The International Workshop on DevOps for Sustainability (DevOpsSustain) provides a platform for researchers and practitioners to discuss topics related to the challenges and opportunities in the interplay of DevOps and sustainability. This one-day workshop will include a keynote, presentations of technical research/experience papers, ideas/visions/reflections or working-in-progress papers, demos, and industry presentations. We welcome contributions that foster meaningful discussions on foundational and novel topics at the intersection of DevOps and Sustainability.

This workshop edition will explore topics related to:

Types of Submissions

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished papers that are not being considered in any other venue.

We accept three types of submissions, as described below. The page limits include references.

The accepted papers will be included in the FSE companion proceedings to be published in the ACM digital library. As a published ACM author, you and your co-authors are subject to all ACM Publications Policies, including ACM’s new Publications Policy on Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and present the paper in person at the workshop to have the paper appear in the FSE companion proceedings.

Submission Instructions

Papers should follow the ACM format required by FSE 2025. Please note that the workshop papers must use the double-column format required by the Companion proceedings. Papers should be submitted via the HotCRP submission site.

In order to ensure the fairness of the reviewing process, the workshop will employ a double-anonymous review process where reviewers (except PC chairs) do not know the identity of authors, and authors do not know the identity of reviewers. The papers submitted must not reveal the authors’ identities in any way. Please find more details about the double-anonymous review process here.

If you use LaTeX, please use \documentclass[sigconf,screen,review,anonymous]{acmart}.

Important dates

JSS Special Issue on Intelligent DevOps for Performance, Sustainability, and Reliability Accepted Technical Research/Experience papers (long papers) at the DevOpsSustain 2025 workshop will be invited to submit extended versions to the Journal of Systems and Software: Special Issue on Intelligent DevOps for Performance, Sustainability, and Reliability.
