<pre>Call for Workshops
The 20th International ACM Symposium on
High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.hpdc.org/2011/">http://www.hpdc.org/2011/</a>
San Jose, California, June 8-11, 2011
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ACM Symposium on High Performance Distributed Computing (HPDC) conference
organizers invite proposals for Workshops to be held with HPDC in San Jose,
California in June 2011. Workshops will run on June 8, preceding the main
conference sessions June 9-11.
HPDC 2011 is the 20th anniversary of HPDC, a preeminent conference in high
performance computing, including cloud and grid computing. This year's
conference will be held in conjunction with the Federated Computing Research
Conference (FCRC), which includes high profile conferences in complementary
research areas, providing a unique opportunity for a broader technical audience
and wider impact for successful workshops.
Workshops provide forums for discussion among researchers and practitioners on
focused topics, emerging research areas, or both. Organizers may structure
workshops as they see fit, possibly including invited talks, panel discussions,
presentations of work in progress, fully peer-reviewed papers, or some
combination. Workshops could be scheduled for a half day or a full day,
depending on interest, space constraints, and organizer preference. Organizers
should design workshops for approximately 20-40 participants, to balance impact
and effective discussion.
A workshop proposal must be made in writing, sent to Mike Lewis at
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:mlewis@cs.binghamton.edu">mlewis@cs.binghamton.edu</a>, and should include:
# The name of the workshop
# Several paragraphs describing the theme of the workshop and how it relates to
the HPDC conference
# Data about previous offerings of the workshop (if any), including attendance,
number of papers, or presentations submitted and accepted
# Names and affiliations of the workshop organizers, and if applicable, a
significant portion of the program committee
# A plan for attracting submissions and attendees
Due to publication deadlines, workshops must operate within roughly the following
timeline: papers due in early February (2-3 weeks after the HPDC deadline) and
selected and sent to the publisher by late February.
IMPORTANT DATES:
# Workshop Proposals Deadline: October 1, 2010
# Notification: October 25, 2010
# Workshop CFPs Online and Distributed: November 8, 2010
