Volunteering @ SOSP 2024

Sign up to be a Volunteer and help us make SOSP 2024 a great experience!

SOSP 2024 offers a number of opportunities for volunteers, who are vital to the efficient operation of the conference. The volunteer program is a chance for students and emerging systems researchers to assist us in preparing and running the event. Our plan is to engage you for a fixed number of work hours (hopefully  10 depending on number of participants) helping with the conference organization. Volunteers will be able to attend some technical sessions. This will also give you an opportunity to interact with researchers, mentors, faculty, and other students at SOSP 2024.
