Call For Papers
Overview
OSDI, the USENIX Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation, brings together professionals from academic and industrial backgrounds in a premier forum for discussing the design, implementation, and implications of systems software. OSDI emphasizes innovative research and quantified or insightful experiences in systems design and implementation.
OSDI takes a broad view of the systems area and solicits contributions from many fields of systems practice, including operating systems, file and storage systems, distributed systems, cloud computing, mobile systems, secure and reliable systems, systems aspects of big data, machine learning systems, embedded systems, virtualization, networking as it relates to operating systems, and management and troubleshooting of complex systems. We also welcome work that explores the interface to related areas such as artificial intelligence, computer architecture, networking, programming languages, analytics, and databases. We encourage contributions with highly original ideas, new approaches, and groundbreaking results.
New in 2026
Compared to previous years, OSDI '26:
Adds an Operational Systems track
Limits the number of submissions per author to eight
Explicitly encourages papers of varying length (and discourages padding papers to 12 pages)
Aims for an acceptance rate of 20% or more
Removes the author response period
Replaces the revise-and-resubmit process with a conditional accept decision
