WORKSHOP ON ADVANCED COLLABORATIVE ENVIRONMENTS

Thursday, September 23, 2004
Four Points by Sheraton Elysee Palace
Nice, France

Fourth Annual Workshop on Advanced Collaborative Environments
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/wace/

This workshop will address research, technological, and social issues of
developing persistent collaboration infrastructure to address the needs of
emerging communities. Examples of such communities include the following:

" Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
" Nanoscience and Molecular Technology
" Wide Area Environmental Sensing
" Biomedical Imaging and Simulation
" Education, Humanities and Technology
" Unique One-of-a-Kind Facilities

The goal of the workshop is to provide an open technical forum to promote
the discussion of high-end, high-value solutions to the problem of
supporting distributed collaboration. Baseline assumptions about the
evolution of future computing technologies (e.g., networking, computing,
storage, and displays) useful for collaboration environments should be
taken into account in developing position papers. The workshop intends to
look at future-generation systems. The following are examples of future
infrastructure predictions likely to affect collaboration systems:

" Network bandwidth -gigabits/s to terabits/s
" Display -desktop monitors to room-oriented systems
" Computing -gigaflops to teraflops PCs
" Mobile devices -PDAs to personal information accessories
" Storage -gigabytes to personal terabytes
" Ubiquitous grid software environments


Overall registration for the workshop will be limited to 75 participants.
