USENIX

The USENIX Association is the Advanced Computing Technical Association. It was founded in 1975 under the name Unix Users Group , focusing primarily on the study and development of Unix and similar systems. The name change to Usenix was in reaction to a threatening letter from Western Electric. It has since grown into a respected organization among practitioners, developers, and researchers of computer operating systems more generally.

USENIX has a special technical group for system administrators, SAGE (organization): The People Who Make IT Work.

It sponsors several conferences and workshops each year, most notably the USENIX Annual Technical Conference, the USENIX Security Symposium, and, with SAGE, LISA (conference), a conference devoted to system administration.
