Call for Papers
*******************
The 8th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Grid Computing
(Grid 2007, http://www.grid2007.org)
Austin, Texas, USA, September 19-21, 2007
Grid computing is evolving from the sharing of powerful computers for
widely distributed applications to service orientation, open standards
integration, collaboration, and virtualization. The ongoing development of
the Grid as a service-oriented architecture for transparent and reliable
distributed computing allows the reuse of existing components and
information resources, and the assembly of these components in a flexible
self-organizing manner. Hiding the complexity and technical details of the
Grid from end users and application developers is going to play a crucial
role in the future, for which issues related to security, provenance,
automatic recovery, machine-interpretable metadata, QoS and SLA
negotiation, etc. will have to be carefully addressed.
The Grid conference series is an annual international meeting with the
objective to serve as both, the premier conference presenting best Grid
research and as a forum for free exchange of ideas. Grid 2007 will feature
invited talks, workshops, tutorials, and refereed paper presentations where
new concepts are introduced and explored.
Topics of interest (in no particular order) include, but are not limited to:
* Applications, including eScience and eBusiness Applications
* Distributed and Large-Scale Data Access and Management
* Computing and Programming Models
* Programming Tools and Environments
* Distributed Problem Solving
* Creation and Management of Virtual Enterprises and Organizations
* Information Services
* Resource Management, Scheduling, and Runtime Environments
* Architectures and Fabrics
* Scientific, Industrial and Social Implications
* Monitoring, Management and Organization Tools
* Middleware and Toolkits
* QoS and SLA Negotiation
* Grid Economy and Business Models
* Autonomic and Utility Computing on Global Grids
* Cluster and Grid Integration Issues
* Networking and Security
* Performance Measurement and Modeling
* Metadata, Ontologies, and Provenance

Technical Papers
*****************
Grid 2007 invites authors to submit original papers. Papers should be no
more than 8 pages in length and be submitted as a PDF file. Submission
implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and
present the paper. A separate conference proceedings will be published
and will also be a part of the IEEE Xplore and the CS digital library.
For detailed submission information, please see Grid2007 website
(www.grid2007.org).
>From more information, please contact Program Chair: Thomas Fahringer
(t...@dps.uibk.ac.at)
**********
Workshops
**********
Grid 2007 will also host a small number of high quality workshops on
September
19th.
Workshops are intended to provide a forum for the discussion of a specific
topic from the field of Grid computing. Full day workshops should have
at least
10 papers, half day workshops at least six papers. The workshop
organizer will
be responsible for advertising the workshop, reviewing and selecting the
papers, and for publishing proceedings. There will be a separate
workshop fee
for each workshop participant which will be determined by the conference
organizers. It will cover the room rate and coffee breaks. Proposals to
organize workshops should include the following information: Workshop title,
name, affiliation, mailing and e-mail address of the proposer(s),names of at
least three PC members, a description of the topic of the workshop plus a
short description on how the workshop will be advertised so as to ensure a
sufficiently wide range of authors, a description of the organization, e.g.,
schedule, reviewing, publisher of the proceedings and a brief
introduction of
the proposer, explaining his/her qualifications.
Proposals in PDF format should be submitted to the Workshops Chair: Michael
Gerndt (ger...@in.tum.de).
**********
Tutorials
**********
Grid 2007 will also host a small number of high quality tutorials on
September
19th.
Tutorial proposals have to include title, presenter(s), abstract (300
words),
duration (harf-day or full-day), detailed description (maximum of 3 pages),
short vita of presenters (1 pages), intended audience, assumed background of
attendees, relevance to Grid2007 (300 words). Each tutorial presenter
will be
provided with free registration to the conference, and also provided an
honorarium.
Proposals in PDF format should be sent to the Tutorials Chair: Omer F. Rana
(o.f....@cs.cardiff.ac.uk).
