**** CALL FOR WORKSHOPS ****
The 13th IEEE/ACM International Symposium on
Cluster, Cloud and Grid Computing
(CCGrid 2013)
Delft University of Technology, Delft, the Netherlands
May 13-16, 2013
http://www.pds.ewi.tudelft.nl/ccgrid2013
http://www.pds.ewi.tudelft.nl/ccgrid2013/calls/workshops/
Workshop proposals are invited for CCGrid 2013 on specific aspects of Grid,
Cloud
and Cluster Computing, particularly relating to the subject areas indicated by
the
topics below. We encourage workshops that will discuss fundamental research
issues
driven by academic interests or more applied industrial or commercial concerns.
The
format of the workshop will be determined by the organizers. Workshops can vary
in
length from a half day to a full day. Having more than one co-organizer for a
workshop is strongly advised. Workshop proceedings will be published as part of
the
CCGrid 2013 proceedings. So, it is very important that high quality workshops
are
accepted, and that workshop chairs observe strict quality standards, no more
than
50% acceptance, in the selection of papers for their events. Workshop attendees
are
required to register for the main conference.
IMPORTANT DATES AND PROPOSAL SUBMISSION:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Workshop proposals and any enquiries should be sent by e-mail to the workshop
chairs.
Proposals should be submitted in PDF format (printable on A4 paper).
Workshop Proposals Due: October 20, 2012
Notification: November 3, 2012
Workshops: May 13-16 2013
PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS:
-------------------------------------------
Proposals for workshops should be between 2 to 5 pages in length. They should
contain
the following information:
o Title and brief technical description of the workshop, specifying the goals
and the
technical issues that will be its focus.
o A brief abstract of the workshop (less than 200 words), intended for the
CCGrid 2013
web site.
o A brief description of why and to whom the workshop is of interest.
o A list of related workshops or similar events held in the last 3 years or to
be held
in 2012/2013.
o The names and contact information (web page, email address) of the proposed
organizing committee. This committee should consist of two or three people
knowledgeable about the technical issues to be addressed, preferably not
members of
the same institution. A brief description of the qualifications of the
proposed
organizing committee with respect to organizing this workshop (e.g., papers
published
in the proposed topic area, previous workshop organization, other relevant
information).
o Link to a preliminary web site of the workshop and a preliminary call for
papers
o A list of committed and proposed PC members.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
------------------------------
Each workshop organizing committee will be responsible for the following:
o Producing a web page and a "Call for Papers/Participation" for their
workshop. The
URL should be sent to the workshop co-chairs for CCGrid 2013.
o The call must make it clear that the workshop is open to all members of the
Distributed Computing community. It should mention that at least one author
of each
accepted submission must attend the workshop and that all workshop
participants must
pay the conference fee.
o Finally, it should also clearly describe the process by which the Organizing
Committee will select the participants.
o Ensure that all workshop papers are a maximum of 6 pages in length (in IEEE
format).
It is the responsibility of the workshop organizers to ensure that this page
limit has
been adhered to. Additional pages may be purchased (in some circumstances)
subject to
approval of the proceedings chair.
o Provide a brief description of the workshop for the conference web page and
program.
o Selecting the participants and the format of the workshop.
The publication of proceedings will be by the IEEE in the same volume as the
main
conference. Camera-ready due date for the accepted workshop papers will be the
same as the
main conference. Therefore, workshop organizers should set the acceptance
notification date
at least 2 weeks earlier than the camera-ready due date. All other details can
be up to
workshop organizers to set, such as advertising the workshop beyond the
conference web page
and assistance in producing a camera-ready version of the workshop proceedings.
Important Note:
-----------------------
Workshop organizers must ensure that suitable quality measures have been taken
to ensure that
the accepted papers are of high quality. All papers must be reviewed by an
International
Programme Committee (with a minimum of 3 reviews per paper).
The CCGrid 2013 Organizing Committee will be responsible for the following:
o Providing a link to a workshop's local page.
o Providing logistics support and a meeting place for the workshop.
o In conjunction with the organizers, determining the workshop date and time.
o Providing copies of the workshop proceedings to attendees.
Important Note:
-----------------------
The CCGrid 2013 Organizing Committee may decide, if the workshop is too small
(i.e. does not attract enough submissions) to merge it with another workshop.
So we encourage
workshop organizers to attract a large community. In extreme situations we may
also cancel
workshops if there are not enough submissions.
Conference Topics of Interest and Area Keywords:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Topics of interest to the conference include (but are not restricted to):
o Autonomic Grid Computing
o Content Distribution Networks
o Cloud Computing
o Cluster Computing
o Grid Computing
o Peer-2-Peer Computing
o Multi-Core Systems
o Grid and Cloud Testbeds
