Refereed papers accepted to LISA describe new techniques, tools, theories,
and inventions, and present case histories that extend our understanding of
system and network administration. They present new ideas, backed by
rigorous and repeatable methodology, in the context of previous related
work, and can have a broad impact on operations and future research.  The
LISA juried posters session is a great opportunity to present your work
visually, either as a companion to a refereed paper or as a standalone
submission displaying work in progress. Posters present the core of your
research to a wide audience, providing you with the ability to gain valuable
feedback from both industry and academic audiences.
