>                          CALL FOR PAPERS AND PARTICIPATION
>
>4th International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid (CCGrid 2004)
>Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society (final approval pending )
>19-22 April, Chicago, Illinois, USA
>
>Web site: http://www.mcs.anl.gov/ccgrid2004
>
>SCOPE
>
>In 20 years from 1970 to 1990 the Internet and the UNIX operating system
>became ubiquitous in computer science laboratories and universities.
>During the 10 years from 1990 to 2000, the Internet emerged as a global
>information utility, commodity microprocessors fueled the establishment
>of clusters as computing platforms, and open source Linux became a
>mainstream operating system.  Metacomputers, the concept of combining
>networked resources into distributed virtual computers, grew into the
>concept of The Grid with the vision that those distributed resources
>would be as straightforward to build and use as the ubiquitous
>electrical power grid.
>
>Today we are seeing a convergence of extremes: terascale computers
>created from Open Source Linux commodity clusters, multi-gigabit/second
>wide area networks, and the Open Grid Services Architecture, combining
>Web services designed to scale to millions of endpoints with High
>Performance Grid concepts designed to scale to TeraFlop endpoints.
>Together, they are facilitating a new wave of computer science research
>and development.
>
>CCGrid2004, sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society (final approval
>pending), is designed to bring together international leaders who are
>pioneering researchers, developers, and users of extreme clusters,
>networks, and Grid architectures and applications. The symposium will
>also serve as a forum to present the latest work, and highlight related
>activities from around the world.
>
>CCGrid2004 is interested in topics including, but not limited to:
>
>* Hardware and Software (based on PCs, Workstations, SMPs or
>Supercomputers)
>* Middleware for Clusters and Grids
>* Dynamic Optical Network Architectures for Grid Computing
>* Parallel File Systems, including wide area file systems, and Parallel I/O
>* Scheduling and Load Balancing
>* Programming Models, Tools, and Environments
>* Performance Evaluation and Modeling
>* Resource Management and Scheduling
>* Computational, Data, and Information Grid Architectures and Systems
>* Grid Economies, Service Architectures, and Resource Exchange
>Architectures
>* Grid-based Problem Solving Environments
>* Scientific, Engineering, and Commercial Grid Applications
>* Portal Computing / Science Portals
>
>PAPER SUBMISSION
>
>Authors are invited to submit papers of not more than 8 pages of double
>column text using single spaced 10 point size type on 8.5 x 11 inch
>pages, as per IEEE 8.5 x 11 manuscript guidelines, see:
>http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm.  Authors should submit a
>PostScript (level 2) or PDF file that will print on a PostScript
>printer. Paper submission instructions will be placed on:
>http://www.mcs.anl.gov/ccgrid2004/.
>
>It is expected that the proceedings will be published by the IEEE
>Computer Society Press, USA.
>
>SPECIAL EVENTS - WORKSHOPS
>
>Those wishing to organize workshops, present tutorials on emerging
>topics or participate in the industry track are invited to send the
>following information to special-event-ccgrid2004 at ggf.org.
