The past few years has seen a massive success story for systems programming. Entire categories of bugs that used to plague systems programmers—like use-after-free, data races, and segmentation faults—have begun to completely disappear. The secret to this new reality is a set of systems programming languages chief among them Rust—whose powerful type systems are able to constructively eliminate these kind of bugs; if it compiles, then it’s correct … or at least, will not contain use-a...| USENIX

The USENIX Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, dedicated to supporting the advanced computing systems communities and furthering the reach of innovative research. We are known for organizing conferences and publishing research, but our greatest strength lies in building communities in computing systems. We represent the interests of our communities in a variety of ways, including our professional affiliation with the Computing Research Association.| USENIX
The USENIX Test of Time Awards recognize papers that have had a lasting impact on their fields. To qualify, a paper must have been presented at its respective conference at least 10 years ago. Steering committees and past program chairs from USENIX conferences determine the award winners. FAST, NSDI, and the USENIX Security Symposium encourage nominations from the community for these awards. Please check the upcoming symposium's webpage for information about how to submit a nomination.| USENIX
The NSDI Steering Committee is deliberately effecting a course correction regarding the scope of papers accepted to the conference. The correction is motivated by the committee’s observation that NSDI papers on certain topics have generated less community engagement than most papers. The implementation of scope correction in the 2025 submission cycle was flawed: feedback to authors was inadequate and came at inconsistent times. In the 2026 cycle, the SC will continue the course-correction e...| USENIX Update
Amid the confusion around the future of federal funding in the United States, USENIX is among the many organizations preparing to navigate the uncertain future of scientific research in the US. While the payment freeze was lifted, ours are among thousands of federal grants being reviewed for compliance with recent executive orders, the outcome of which is uncertain. USENIX conferences are where new technologies get introduced and unique partnerships are formed. We offer grants to students t...| USENIX Update
USENIX held its annual membership meeting on Monday, December 16, 2024, via Zoom. This report summarizes the topics covered by the Board of Directors and staff during the meeting. Membership and Financial Sustainability This year has continued to be financially challenging for USENIX. We are in a slightly better position this year (less in the “red”) than last year, but we are still not in a sustainable position. This report includes more information about work that is ongoing to address ...| USENIX Update
Recently, several prominent members of the computer security and privacy research community received emails alleging that a group of reviewers sought to gain an unfair advantage in the peer-review process via omitted conflicts or collusion. These emails include supposed confidential reviewer assignments for conferences including USENIX Security 2022-2024. This information was shared with recipients who were not on the USENIX Security program committees and who could have been conflicted with ...| USENIX Update
The mission statement of the USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI), expressed in the Call for Papers, is that "NSDI focuses on the design principles, implementation, and practical evaluation of networked and distributed systems." The NSDI Steering Committee is dedicated to ensuring that the symposium aligns with this goal on an annual basis and to providing strategic support for each set of NSDI program co-chairs in creating symposia that represent the breadth...| USENIX Update
USENIX held its annual membership meeting on Monday, December 11, 2023, via Zoom. This report summarizes the topics covered by the Board of Directors and staff during the meeting. Membership and Financial Sustainability Over the past year, from November 2022 to November 2023, we've seen a notable decrease in our membership numbers across Corporate (-67%), Individual (-19%), and Advocate (-19%) categories. We’ve also seen a minor drop in Educational (-5%) and Champion (-4%) categories, along...| USENIX Update
Today USENIX announced the winners of the 2023 Internet Defense Prize competition. Created in 2014, the award is funded by Meta and offered in partnership with USENIX to celebrate contributions to the protection and defense of the internet. The USENIX Security ’23 Awards Committee, which is composed of members of the USENIX Security ’23 Program Committee, independently recommended three honorees. All winners of the Prize are papers to be published and presented at the 32nd USENIX Security...| USENIX Update
Today, we’re suspending the USENIX Enigma conference. Though we hope it will come back, we have no immediate plans for its return. Put simply, the combination of pandemic-related changes in people’s appetite for travel and the recent spending reductions in the technology sector have significantly impacted Enigma attendance as well as its sponsorships. This is the last decision we wanted to make, but it is the decision we must make. This decision hits us hard, and we know, based on the lov...| USENIX Update
USENIX celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2025. We celebrate decades of innovations, experiments, and gatherings of the advanced computing system community.

Gathering all kinds of telemetry data is key to operating reliable distributed systems at scale. Once you have set-up your telemetry systems and recorded all relevant data, the challenge becomes to make sense of it and extract valuable information. Statistics is the art of extracting information from data. In this talk we will discuss mathematical methods, that will help you in your daily work as SRE. Specifically we will cover the following subjects:| www.usenix.org
SREcon is a gathering of engineers who care deeply about site reliability, systems engineering, and working with complex distributed systems at scale. SREcon strives to challenge both those new to the profession as well as those who have been involved in it for decades. The conference has a culture of critical thought, deep technical insights, continuous improvement, and innovation.| USENIX
