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 i

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.

Technical Papers

================

Grid 2006 invites authors to submit original and unpublished work  (also
not

submitted elsewhere for review) reporting solid and innovative  results
in any

aspect of grid computing and its applications. Papers should not  exceed
8

single-spaced pages of text using 10-point size type on 8.5 x 11 inch
paper

(see IEEE author instructions, a LaTeX style sheet and Word format is

available, too). All bibliographical references, tables, and figures  

must be included in these 8 pages. Submissions that exceed the 8-page
limit  

will not be reviewed. Authors should submit a PDF file that will print
on a  

PostScript printer.

Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to  

register and present the paper.

Proceedings: All papers selected for this conference are peer- reviewed
and will

be published as a separate proceedings. After the event, the papers  

will also be published in the IEEE Xplore and the CS digital library.
For author

instructions see http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm

Special Issue: The best 6 to 8 papers from the conference will be  

selected for journal length extension and their publication in a special
issue 

of the Future Generation Computing Systems (FGCS).
