Call For Papers
(EXTENDED)

INGRID 2009
4th International Workshop on Distributed Cooperative Laboratories:
Instrumenting the Grid

April 1-3, 2009
Alghero, Sardinia, Italy

The possibility to perform measurement tasks and experiments on complex
virtual laboratory structures is gaining momentum as a relevant aspect in a
number of areas, from scientific and technological research, to
environmental monitoring, to distance learning and training.
Grid architectures, viewed as tools for the integration of distributed
resources, play a significant role, not only as managers of computational
resources, but increasingly as aggregators of measurement instrumentation
and pervasive large-scale data acquisition platforms. In this context, the
functionality of a grid architecture allows managing, maintaining and
exploiting heterogeneous instrumentation and acquisition devices in a
unified way, by providing standardized interfaces and common work
environments to their users. This is achieved through the properties of
isolation from the physical network and from the peculiarities of the
instrumentation, granted by standard middleware, together with secure and
flexible mechanisms to seek, access, and aggregate distributed resources.

The 1st Workshop in this series was held in Sorrento, Italy, in July 2005,
within the framework of the International Tyrrhenian Workshop on Digital
Communications. It was devoted to the investigation of the main issues
related to the sustainable realization of virtual laboratories, where real
and virtual instrumentation can be shared and used in a collaborative
environment. The second workshop was held in Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy,
in April 2007, and the third one in Lacco Ameno, Ischia, Italy, in April
2008.
The current edition of the Workshop focuses on all aspects related to the
effective exploitation of remote instrumentation on the Grid. These include
middleware architecture, high-speed networking in support of Grid
applications, wireless Grid for acquisition devices and sensor networks,
Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning for real-time control, measurement
instrumentation and methodology.

The INGRID2009 PC proposes additional possibilities to be actively engaged
in the conference program:
1) Extended abstract  in addition to full paper submission authors can
provide an extended abstract (1-2 pages).  The abstracts positively approved
give a chance to make a presentation at the conference. A full paper to be
provided until April 15th will be reviewed independently with a chance to
add the paper to the post-workshop proceedings.
Deadline for extended abstract submission:  January 31, 2009.
2) Invited sessions  you can organize an invited session at the INGRID2009.
Please provide us with the session description (1-1,5 page) including a
draft session program.
Deadline for invited sessions: February 10, 2009.
3) Extended deadline for full paper submission  January 31, 2009 (see
below). 

All submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the
International Program Committee.

Contributions are solicited on all advanced research issues concerning the
theme of the Workshop, and particularly in (but not limited to) the
following topics:

* Grid architectures with real-time control
* Grid middleware extensions for remote control of instruments and devices
* Resource Management
* Tele-measurement techniques
* Distributed synchronization and calibration
* Workflow management for large-scale experiments
* Virtualization technology
* Virtual Laboratories
* Visualization techniques
* Distributed data acquisition and sensor networks
* Management of large data sets
* Mobile and wireless grids
* Management of large-scale physics experiments
* Networking solutions in support of Grid architectures
* Reliability and fault tolerance
* Supporting interactive applications in the grid environment
* Collaborative environments for the Grid
* Remote Instrumentation Services

IMPORTANT DATES
* Paper submission (EXTENDED):  January 31, 2009
* Acceptance notification:  February 28, 2009
* Camera ready copy due:  March 14, 2009

PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Manuscripts to be considered as regular papers should be original work
limited to 20 double-spaced pages.
Work-in-progress papers to be considered for the poster session should be
limited to 10 double-spaced pages.
Any paper submitted to the Workshop must not have been published in or
submitted to other technical conferences/journals.
Only electronic submissions will be accepted. The preferred format for
electronic submission is PDF suitable for Acrobat Reader, or Postscript. All
submissions must be done through the Web site (http://www.ingrid.cnit.it) or
sent by e-mail to the workshop Program Chairs.
Electronic versions of the papers will be available at the Workshop.
The proceedings will be published in book form after the Workshop (contacts
with Springer, which published the previous Workshops books - see, e.g.,
http://www.springer.com/engineering/signals/book/978-0-387-09662-9 - are
currently undertaken).
