Reminder: DIALOGUE workshop on Applications-Driven Issues in Data Grids
+===================================================================+ | First DIALOGUE Workshop: Applications-Driven Issues in Data Grids | +===================================================================+ Dates : August 1 & 2, 2005 Location : The Blackwell, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, USA. More info: http://dialogue.datagrids.org/workshops.cfm Abstract sumbission deadline extended to 1st July As more and more applications move towards distributed storage and processing solutions, new and interesting issues arise. Applications must handle varying, sometimes extremely large data sizes and increasingly complex data models. These applications also often must allow fine grained access control. Applications areas from engineering to basic biomedical research to clinical research share common challenges and encounter domain specific issues regarding the storage, management, and processing of requirements in a data grid environment. Future data grid middleware solutions will need to be able to deal with these issues in generalizable, globally applicable ways. Call For Participation ---------------------- Presentations and discussions at this first DIALOGUE workshop will cover applications scenarios that reveal issues encountered in the participants' current data grid solutions. Presentations may discuss how such issues can be generalized and abstracted so that they can be addressed by existing grid middleware and/or may propose potential middleware approaches to address these issues. Presentation abstracts (<1000 words) should be submitted to dialogue@datagrids.org by July 1, 2005. Potential Topics ---------------- Applications: o Integrative basic cancer research o Clinical data management o Large scale image analysis and visualization o Assimilation of sensor-gathered datasets o Large-scale, simulation-based subsurface characterization and optimization Issues: o Storage and management of extremely large volumes of data o Data mining and warehousing o Complex and varying models of data o Querying and subsetting of large datasets o Integration of multiple data types o Integration across multiple scales of data o Fine grain access control o Management and execution of data- and compute-intensive workflows Workshop Chairs --------------- Malcolm Atkinson, NeSC Joel Saltz, OSU Program Committee ----------------- Malcolm Atkinson, NeSC, co-chair Joel Saltz, OSU, co-chair Pinar Alper, Univeristy of Manchester Chaitan Baru, SDSC Peter Brezany, University of Vienna Shannon Hastings, OSU Neil Chue Hong, EPCC Jason Novotny, Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics Beth Plale, Indiana University +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Mario Antonioletti:EPCC,JCMB,The King's Buildings,Edinburgh EH9 3JZ. | |Tel:0131 650 5141|mario@epcc.ed.ac.uk|http://www.epcc.ed.ac.uk/~mario/ | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
