Dear all,<br>
We invite you to participate in the 3rd workshop on Many-Task
Computing on Grids and Supercomputers (MTAGS10) on Monday, November
15th, 2010, co-located with IEEE/ACM Supercomputing 2010 in New
Orleans LA. MTAGS will provide the scientific community a dedicated
forum for presenting new research, development, and deployment
efforts of large-scale many-task computing (MTC) applications on
large scale clusters, Grids, Supercomputers, and Cloud Computing
infrastructure. <br>
<br>
A few highlights of the workshop:<br>
<ul>
<li><b>Workshop Program: </b>The program can be found at
