Hi Aus-VO list members,

please find below the Call for Papers for the 5th IEEE/ACM
International Workshop on Grid Computing (Grid 2004), which
will be held in conjunction with SuperComputing 2004 in
Pittsburgh in November.

Papers describing virtual observatory infrastructure and
applications are particularly encouraged.

           * Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)

                       Call For Papers
                       ===============

General Information and Scope
-----------------------------

In the last few years, the Grid community has been growing very rapidly
and many new technologies and components have been proposed. This, along
with the growing popularity Web-based technologies, and the availability
of cheap commodity components is changing the way we do computing and
business. There are now many ongoing grid projects with research and
production-oriented goals.

Grid 2004 is an international meeting that brings together a community of
researchers, developers, practitioners, and users involved with the Grid.
The objective of Grid 2004 is to serve as a forum to present current and
emerging work as well as to exchange research ideas in this field.

The previous events that are part of this series of events were Grid
2000, Bangalore, India; Grid 2001, Denver, CO; Grid 2002, Baltimore, MD;
Grid 2003, Phoenix, USA. All of these events have been successful in
attracting high quality papers and a wide international participation.
Last year's event attracted over 400 registered participants.

Since the first event we have published our own independent proceedings,
either with Spinger-Verlag or more recently with the IEEE Computer
Society Press.

Grid 2004 partially follows the focus of last year's event, but extends
it to also include service-oriented grid and utility computing
technologies, with greater emphasis on e-Science and e-Business
applications. Overall topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Internet-based Computing Models
* Innovative Strategies for Creation and Management of
  Virtual Enterprises and Organisations
* Grid Architectures and Fabrics
* Cluster and Grid Integration Issues
* Grid Middleware and Toolkits
* Grid Monitoring, Management and Organization Tools
* Grid Information Services
* Grid Security Issues
* Programming Models, Tools, and Environments
* Remote Data Access and Management
* Grid Object Metadata and Schemas
* Grid Applications
* Virtual Instrumentation and eScience
* Resource Management and Scheduling
* Grid Economy
* Autonomic and Utility Computing on Global Grids
* Performance Evaluation and Modeling
* Advance Resource Reservation and Scheduling
* eScience and eBusiness Applications
* Scientific, Industrial and Social Implications

Paper Submission
----------------

Grid 2004 invites authors to submit original and unpublished work
reporting solid and innvovative results in any aspect of grid computing
and its applications. Papers should not exceed 8 single-spaced pages of
text using 10 point size type on 8.5 x 11 inch paper (see IEEE author
instructions <http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm>, a LaTeX
style sheet <ieee-style-latex.tar> is available, too). Authors should
submit a PostScript (level 2) file that will print on a PostScript
printer. Electronic submission through the workshop website
<http://griwi.rutgers.edu/%7Ewimpe/GRID2003/forms/authpaper_reg.html>is
strongly encouraged. Hard copies will be accepted only if electronic
submission is not possible. Submission implies the willingness of at
least one of the authors to register and present the paper.

Proceedings: All papers selected for this workshop are peer-reviewed and
will be published as a separate proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society
(CS) Press. After the event, the papers will also be published in the CS
digital library. For author instructions see
http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm

Important Dates
---------------

15 June 2004: Full Paper Submission Due
30 July 2004: Acceptance Notification
15 August 2004: Camera-Ready Copy due
