> GRID 2006 Preliminar Call for Papers
> ====================================
> 
> GRID 2006 the 7th IEEE International Conference on Grid Computing
> Barcelona, 28-29 September www.grid2006.org
> 
> The Grid conference series is an anual international meeting
> that brings together a community of researchers, developers,
> practitioners, and  users involved with Grid technology. The
> objective of the meeting is to  serve as both the premier
> conference presenting best Grid research and a forum  where
> new concepts can be introduced and explored.
> 
> The previous events in this series were: Grid 2000,
> Bangalore, India;  Grid 2001, Denver; Grid 2002, Baltimore;
> Grid 2003, Phoenix; Grid 2004,  Pittsburgh; and the sixth
> event, Grid 2005 in Seattle.
> 
> All of these events have been successful in attracting high
> quality papers and a wide international participation. Last
> year's event attracted about 400 registered  participants.
> 
> From the second event through the sixth, we have been known
> as the Grid Workshop affiliated with the Supercomputing SC
> conference series.   For this, our seventh event, we will
> convene our first meeting as a conference  and this year we
> will be co-located with the 2006 Cluster conference.
> 
> The proceedings of the first three workshops were published
> by Springer-Verlag, and the proceedings of the three most
> recent workshops were published by the IEEE Computer Society
> Press. We expect this year's proceedings will join those of
> the last three years in the IEEE Computer Society's Digital
> Library.
> 
> Grid 2006 has been labelled a CoreGRID event.
