[Swift-user] Call for Participation: 3rd IEEE Workshop on Many-Task Computing on Grids and Supercomputers (MTAGS10), co-located with Supercomputing 2010 -- win an Apple iPad!!!

[Ioan Raicu]

Dear all,
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.

A few highlights of the workshop:
