Call for Papers The 8th International Conference on Grid and Pervasive Computing (GPC 2013) Daegu, Korea May 9-11, 2013
Grid and Pervasive Computing covers research issues and challenges in the field of computer science and engineering in areas of grid and pervasive computing. Grid computing connects computer resources from multiple domains for solving computationally complex scientific, technical or business problems in a distributed fashion. Pervasive computing aims at creating computational devices and systems that will blend into environment to support everyday human activities via natural human computer interaction. GPC 2013 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from interested communities of grid computing and pervasive computing to explore ideas and solutions to challenges in the areas of grid and pervasive computing. Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers with the following topics, but not limited to - Cloud, cluster and grid computing - Mobile, peer-to-peer and pervasive computing - Sensor and Ad hoc networks - Mobile agents and networking - Service-oriented computing - Middleware, resource management, and runtime environments - Programming models, tools and environments for distributed and pervasive computing - Grid and pervasive applications, including eScience and eBusiness applications - Creation and management of virtual enterprises and organizations - Grid and cloud computing economy and business models - Semantic web, semantic grid, metadata and ontology related to pervasive and distributed computing - Distributed multimedia analysis and processing - Security and privacy in grid, pervasive and cloud computing - Middleware Frameworks and Toolkits - Virtualization techniques, tools, and applications - Parallel programming models and languages - Parallel language compiler and run-time support - Parallel and distributed systems - Performance modeling, prediction, and tuning - Multi-core and cluster computing - Ubiquitous Communications and Networks - Embedded and Pervasive Computing - Social Network and Services - Multimedia Communications - Machine to Machine Communications * Submissions Authors are invited to submit original contributions. Paper submissions shall be in English, should be complete, should not exceed 15 pages in length and should be in full conformance with LNCS paper style. The GPC 2013 proceedings will be published by Springer as a volume in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. The publisher will arrange the indexing of the proceedings in all major indexing services. * Important Dates - Workshop Proposal Submission Due: September 15, 2012 - Paper Submission Due: September 15, 2012 - Accept Notification: November 15, 2012 - Camera-ready paper Due: January 1, 2013 - Registration Due: January 15, 2013 - Conference/Workshop Dates: May 9-11, 2013 * Publications The Conference Proceedings will be published as LNCS (indexed by EI, ISTP, and SCOPUS) series published by Springer (Pending). Papers will be selected based on their originality, timeliness, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. Distinguished selected papers accepted and presented in GPC-13, after further revisions, will be published in the special issues of the following international journals (Pending): - The Journal of Supercomputing - Springer (SCI) - Cluster Computing (CC) - Springer (SCI-E) - Human-centric Computing and Information Sciences (HCIS), Springer - Journal of Convergence (JoC), FTRA Publising - International Journal of Information Technology, Communications and - Convergence (IJITCC), InderScience. * Call for Workshops In conjunction with GPC-13, we will organize some workshops. The workshop proposals should be submitted to the Leading Workshop Chair, Prof. Joon-Min Gil (jm...@cu.ac.kr) , by **Sept. 15, 2012**. It is expected that the accepted and presented papers in the workshops be included in GPC-13 proceeding -LNCS (indexed by EI, ISTP, and SCOPUS) series published by Springer (Pending). In general, a workshop takes one day, although multiple-days and half-day workshops are welcome. Financial Supports for Workshop Organizer: We will provide workshop organizers to some honorariums based on their contribution (at least 6 registered papers). * Important Dates - Workshop Proposal Submission Due: September 15, 2012 - Workshop Acceptance Notification: September 30, 2012 - Camera-ready paper Due: January 15, 2012 - Registration Due: January 15, 2013 - Conference events: May 9-11, 2013 * Awards The organizing committee will offer FTRA best paper award for the best paper which will be presented at the banquet. * Contacts If you have any questions about the CFPs and papers submission, please email to Prof. James J. Park (parkjonghy...@hotmail.com) and Prof. Martin Sang-Soo Yeo (sangsoo...@gmail.com). _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
