------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8th Australasian Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing (AusPDC 2010) Brisbane, Australia, January 18-22, 2010 http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~rajivr/auspdc2010/ in conjunction with Australasian Computer Science Week, 18-22 January 2010 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overview/Scope: The 8th Australasian Symposium on Parallel and Distributed (AusPDC 2010) will be held in January, in Brisbane, Australia in conjunction with Australasian Computer Science Week, 18-22 January 2010. Scope of the Symposium AusGrid event has been broadened to include all aspects of parallel and distributed computing and hence it will be called as Australasian Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing (AusPDC) from 2010. In both New Zealand and Australia parallel and distributed computing has been recognised as strategic technologies for driving their moves towards knowledge economies. A number of projects and initiatives are underway in both countries in these areas. There is a natural interest in tools which support collaboration and access to remote resources given the challenges of the countries location and sparse populations. Topics of interest for the symposium include but not limited to: * Multicore * GPUs and other forms of special purpose processors * Cluster computing * Grid computing * Green computing * Cloud computing * Peer-to-peer computing * Service computing and workflow management * Managing large distributed data sets * Middleware and tools * Performance evaluation and modeling * Problem-solving environments * Parallel programming models, languages and compilers * Runtime systems * Operating systems * Resource scheduling and load balancing * Data mining * Reliability, security, privacy and dependability * Applications and e-Science The symposium is primarily targeted at researchers from Australia and New Zealand, however in the spirit of parallel and distributed computing, which aims to enable collaboration of distributed virtual organizations, we encourage papers and participation from international researchers. Best Paper Award: A best paper award sponsored by Manjrasoft Pty. Ltd, Australia will be presented to a paper receiving the highest quality rating. In addition, a special issue in a high quality international journal will be organized for selected best papers.

[P2P] Call for Papers - IEEE TASE special issue on "Scientific Workflow Management and Applications"
by Jinjun Chen 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

Call for papers- Special Issue in IEEE Trans. On Automation Science and Engineering about "Scientific Workflow Management and Applications" - http://www.swinflow.org/si/t-ase.htm. Deadline: March 31, 2008. Scientific workflow is a new special type of workflow that often underlies many large-scale complex e-science applications such as climate modeling, structural biology and chemistry, medical surgery or disaster recovery simulation. Compared with business workflows, scientific workflow has special features such as computation, data or transaction intensity, less human interaction, and a large number of activities. Some emerging computing infrastructures such as grid computing with powerful computing and resource sharing capabilities present the potential for accommodating those special features. Currently, many efforts are being on this new workflow area, and workshops such as WaGe07, WORKS07, and NSF funded workshop on challenges of scientific workflows have been or are being held to explore scientific workflow issues. Gradually, research results are published and several scientific workflow management systems such as Gridbus workflow, SwinDeW-G, Kepler and Taverna are developed or evolved from existing systems. However, in general, research and development in scientific workflow management are still in their infancy with obscure knowledge of scientific workflow specific features and techniques. This special issue aims to systematically investigate and shape the special features, challenges and new techniques of scientific workflows as well as corresponding applications and underlying computing infrastructures. Original and unpublished high-quality research results are solicited to explore and boost the new area. The topics for contributions include, but are not limited to: * Special features of scientific workflows and their hints on new techniques * Scientific workflow modeling, execution and scheduling * Formal representation, scientific workflow patterns * Control flows and data flows in scientific workflows * Web/grid services based scientific workflows * Application programming interface and Graphical user interface * Scientific workflow verification and validation * Exception handling, Quality of Service, performance and security issues in scientific workflows * Underlying infrastructures targeting scientific workflow support * Real-world scientific workflow applications Important Dates March 31, 2008 Paper submission deadline July 31, 2008 Completion of the first round review November 30, 2008 Completion of the second round review January 15, 2009 Final manuscript due July 2009 Tentative publication date Paper Submission All papers are to be submitted through the Manuscript Central for T-ASE at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/t-ase. Please select Special Issue under Manuscript Category of your submission. All manuscripts must be prepared according to the IEEE T-ASE publication guidelines http://www.engr.uconn.edu/~ieeetase/. Papers will be reviewed following the standard IEEE T-ASE review process. Please address inquiries to jchen(a)ict.swin.edu.au.

[p2p] Closure of remaining groups?
by Cees de Laat 27 Jan '05

27 Jan '05

Dear p2p members, The p2p area has not seen much activity apart from a heroic effort to finish the doc in the ogsap2p research group. That doc is now in the editor pipeline and that group is closing down as discussed with Karan. The group will enter the "completed" state when the doc is published. So now I wish to understand if the appagg-rg is foreseeing any future activity or wish to meet at one of the next GGF's. If not or if I do not get an answer in the reasonable future I suggest also to close down the group. So please let me know if anyone in the p2p field wants to schedule anything in the next GGF in Korea or thereafter. Best regards, Cees. -- http://www.science.uva.nl/~delaat/
