-------------------------CALL FOR PAPERS--------------------------------
CCGrid 2006: 6th IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid 16-19 May 2006 Singapore http://pdcc.ntu.edu.sg/ccgrid2006 http://www.ccgrid.org !!Submission Deadline: 15th November 2005!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SCOPE ----- CCGrid 2006 is the sixth in a series of successful international conferences and for the first time will take place in the heart of South-East Asia - Singapore. The conference will be held at Singapore Management University in the centre of Singapore. The past years have seen tremendous challenges with the convergence of Web Services and Grid Technology. There have been major initiatives - internationally as well as locally - within the community that has taken up these challenges. Grid Technology enables us to make a major change in the paradigm for conducting our work with the holy grail of - computing on tap- , which in particular includes collaborative sharing. With this in mind CCGrid 2006 provides researchers and practitioners with an excellent opportunity to share their research and experience at the cross-roads of Grid Technology. The areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - Web Services Flow Languages - Programming Models, Tools & Environments - Peer-to-Peer computing - Information Services - Resource Exchange Architectures - Grid-based Problem Solving Environments - Scientific, Engineering and Commercial Grid Applications - Middleware for Clusters and Grids - Parallel File Systems & Wide Area File Systems - Scheduling and Load Balancing - Performance Evaluation and Modelling - Resource Management and Scheduling - Computational Data and Information Grid - Architectures and Systems - Grid Economies and Service Architectures PAPER SUBMISSION ---------------- Authors are invited to submit a full length 8-page paper of double column text using single spaced 10 pt size type on 8.5- x11- paper, as per IEEE manuscript guidelines. Detailed paper submission instructions will be placed on the conference web-page. It is expected that the proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press, USA, and will be made available online through the IEEE Digital Library. SPECIAL EVENTS - WORKSHOPS - TUTORIALS -------------------------------------- Those wishing to organise workshops, present tutorials on emerging topics or participate in the industry track are invited to contact the respective chair for further information.
