============================================================== XHPC''06 - Call for Participation Workshop on XEN in High-Performance Cluster and Grid Computing Environments 4th of December, 2006, Sorrento, Italy. held as part of the Fourth International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing and Applications (ISPA''2006) ISPA''2006: <http://www.ispa-conference.org/2006/> http://www.ispa-conference.org/2006/ Workshop URL: <http://xhpc.ai.wu-wien.ac.at/ws/> http://xhpc.ai.wu-wien.ac.at/ws/ The Xen virtual machine monitor is reaching wide-spread adoption in a variety of operating systems as well as scientific-educational usage areas. With its low overhead, Xen allows for concurrently running large numbers of virtual machines, providing each encapsulation, isolation and network-wide CPU migratability. Xen offer a network-wide abstraction layer of individual machine resources to OS environments, thereby opening whole new cluster-and grid high-performance computing (HPC) architectures and services options. The workshop will provide researchers-operators of HPC installations a unique forum for exploring virtual machines in a HPC context. In addition to the paper presentations, participants will find many interaction opportunities.
