Dear all,

We are less than a month away from the 1st ACM Workshop on Scientific 
Cloud Computing (ScienceCloud2010, 
http://dsl.cs.uchicago.edu/ScienceCloud2010/), which is co-located with 
the ACM International Symposium on High Performance Distributed 
Computing (HPDC, http://hpdc2010.eecs.northwestern.edu/), and will take 
place in Chicago Illinois on Monday June 21st.

I wanted to bring a few things to your attention:

   1. We have Dr. Dennis Gannon from Microsoft Research giving the
      keynote talk
      (http://dsl.cs.uchicago.edu/ScienceCloud2010/program.htm#Keynote)!
   2. The complete program is now online at
      http://dsl.cs.uchicago.edu/ScienceCloud2010/program.htm, including
      all session chairs and accepted papers.
   3. We have a panel discussion organized as a conclusion to the
      workshop; more information on the panel can be found at
      http://dsl.cs.uchicago.edu/ScienceCloud2010/program.htm#Panel_on_Scientific_Cloud_Computing.
      The panel discussion moderator is Dr. Pete Beckman (Argonne
      National Laboratory & University of Chicago), and the five
      panelists are Dr. Manish Parashar (Rutgers University), Dr. Dennis
      Gannon (Microsoft Research), Dr. Kate Keahey (Argonne National
      Laboratory & University of Chicago), Dr. Peter Dinda (Northwestern
      University), and Dr. Bob Grossman (University of Illinois at
      Chicago). Please submit questions for the panel discussion you
      would like to see answered during the panel to
      iraicu at eecs.northwestern.edu with a subject "ScienceCloud2010:
      panel discussion questions".
   4. With the generous sponsorship of Microsoft Research and Indiana
      University, we will be organizing and hosting a general workshop
      reception/dinner on Monday evening, for which all registered HPDC
      and/or workshops attendees will be able to attend free of charge.
      The specifics around this reception/dinner are still in the works,
      but if you will be in Chicago on Monday evening, keep your
      calendar open.

Don't forget that the HPDC/workshop early registration ends June 1st, 
after which the registration fees will increase.

We look forward to seeing you in Chicago next month!

Regards,
Dr. Ioan Raicu, Dr. Pete Beckman, and Dr. Ian Foster
