HOW TO SUBMIT PROPOSALS

Speakers are requested to submit extended abstracts of no more than
1000 words, not including figures or references; PDF format is
preferred. Speakers should define their interest in submitting a
proposed panel discussion (including title and proposed speakers), or
an individual presentation (including title). Abstracts should be
written so as to be self-contained and to provide  the technical
substance required for the program committee to evaluate  the
presenter's contribution, and to provide sufficient detail for the
program. Presentations including live demonstrations, for example
introducing a new shared application or service, must list the
hardware  and network requirements necessary for the demonstration.

Abstracts must be submitted by Friday, March 23, 2007. Please submit to
agr2007 at accessgrid.org.

Speakers will be selected by Friday, March 30, 2007. Confirmations will
be sent via email.
