Call for Participation: 12th IEEE/ACM Int. Symp. on Cluster, Grid and Cloud, Computing (CCGrid 2012) -- May13-16 in Ottawa, Canada
*** Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call *** 12th IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Cluster, Grid and Cloud Computing (CCGrid 2012) Ottawa, Canada May 13-16, 2012 http://www.cloudbus.org/ccgrid2012 Venue: The Delta Ottawa City Centre Hotel [Special rates for conference attendees. To book visit: www.cloudbus.org/ccgrid2012/accommodations.html.] *************************** CALL FOR PARTICPATION *************************** *** Registration is Open. *** *** Take advantage of the Early Registration Rates until April 9/2012 *** Overview: Rapid advances in processing, communication and systems/middleware technologies are leading to new paradigms and platforms for computing, ranging from computing Clusters to widely distributed Grid and emerging Clouds. CCGrid is a series of very successful conferences, sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Scalable Computing (TCSC) and ACM, with the overarching goal of bringing together international researchers, developers, and users and to provide an international forum to present leading research activities and results on a broad range of topics related to these platforms and paradigms and their applications. The conference features keynotes, technical presentations, posters and research demos, workshops, tutorials, as well as the SCALE challenges featuring live demonstrations. In 2012, CCGrid will come to Canada for the first time and will be held in Ottawa, the capital city. The symposium will be held on May 13-16 during which the city will be celebrating its world-famous Tulip Festival. CCGrid 2012 will have a focus on important and immediate issues that are significantly influencing all aspects of cluster, cloud and grid computing. Topics discussed in the technical sessions include: Applications and Experiences; Architecture: System architectures, Design and deployment; Autonomic Computing and Cyberinfrastructure; Performance Modeling and Evaluation; Programming Models, Systems, and Fault-Tolerant Computing; Multicore and Accelerator-based Computing; Scheduling and Resource Management; Cloud Computing: Cloud architectures; Software tools and techniques for clouds. ******************* PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS ****************** TECHNICAL SESSIONS WILL INCLUDE * Programming Models and File Systems * Map Reduce and Workflows * QoS and Architecture * GPU * Cloud Services I * I/O and File Systems) * Programming Models) * Cloud Computing I * Communication and Networks * Faults, Failures and Reliability * Workflows * Scheduling and Monitoring * Virtualization * Cloud Services * Data on the Cloud * Multicore Architectures * Cloud Computing II * Applications KEYNOTES: * Dr. Alok Chaudhury (North Western University, USA) * Dr. Dick Epema (TU Delfts, Netherlands) * The winner of the TCSC medal on Scalable Computing WORKSHOPS: * International workshop on Cloud for Business, Industry and Enterprises (C4BIE 2012) * Workshop on Cloud Computing Optimization (CCOPT 2012) * 2nd International Workshop on Cloud Computing and Scientific Applications (CCSA 2012) * Workshop on Modeling and Simulation on Grid and Cloud Computing (MSGC 2012) * 1st International Workshop on Data-intensive Process Management in Large-Scale Sensor Systems (DPMSS 2012) TUTORIALS PANELS & INDUSTRIAL SESSIONS DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM POSTER/DEMO SESSIONS SCALE 2012: The Fourth IEEE International Scalable Computing Challenge CHAIRS General Chair * Shikharesh Majumdar, Carleton University, Canada Program Committee Co-Chairs * Rajkumar Buyya, University of Melbourne, Australia * Pavan Balaji, Argonne National Laboratory, USA Program Committee Vice-chairs * Daniel S.
