========================================================================
The 15th IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Grid
Computing,
2015 (CCGrid) provides a forum for both academia and industry professionals
to
present their latest research findings in all aspects of cluster, cloud, and
grid technologies in the form of a poster or demo, both of which will be
included in the conference proceedings. Posters and demos will be presented
during the same session, during the conference. Additionally, authors may
submit
posters for publication on the web.

SUBMISSION
======================
Posters can be submitted through
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ccgrid2015. Submissions must be
received by January 30, 2015 (see below for other important dates).

See "Types of Posters" below for details on the exact materials that authors
must submit to be considered for the conference’s poster/demo session.

TYPES OF POSTERS
======================
Participants submitting proceedings-published posters/demos are required to
submit a short paper, 4 pages, describing the poster/demo content, the
research
supporting it, and the relevance and importance to the cluster, cloud, and
grid
computing community. If accepted, this short paper will be published in the
proceedings of the conference.

Participants submitting web-published posters are required to submit a short
1-page extended abstract. These abstracts will not be included in the
conference
proceedings.

Both proceedings-published and web-published posters will be displayed
during
the conference. We encourage accepted authors of demos to prepare a poster
to
accompany their demo. All accepted posters (including posters prepared for
demos) will be posted on the conference website.
