> CALL FOR PAPERS
> 
> 8th IEEE International Conference on eScience
> http://www.ci.uchicago.edu/escience2012/
> October 8-12, 2012
> Chicago, IL, USA
> 
> Researchers in all disciplines are increasingly adopting digital tools, techniques and practices, often in
> communities and projects that span disciplines, laboratories, organizations, and national boundaries.
> The eScience 2012 conference is designed to bring together leading international and interdisciplinary
> research communities, developers, and users of eScience applications and enabling IT technologies. The
> conference serves as a forum to present the results of the latest applications research and product/tool
> developments and to highlight related activities from around the world. Also, we are now entering the
> second decade of eScience and the 2012 conference gives an opportunity to take stock of what has
> been achieved so far and look forward to the challenges and opportunities the next decade will bring.
> 
> A special emphasis of the 2012 conference is on advances in the application of technology in a
> particular discipline. Accordingly, significant advances in applications science and technology will be
> considered as important as the development of new technologies themselves. Further, we welcome
> contributions in educational activities under any of these disciplines.
> 
> As a result, the conference will be structured around two e-Science tracks:
> 
> • eScience Algorithms and Applications
> • eScience application areas, including:
> • Physical sciences
> • Biomedical sciences
> • Social sciences and humanities
> • Data-oriented approaches and applications
> • Compute-oriented approaches and applications
> • Extreme scale approaches and applications
> • Cyberinfrastructure to support eScience
> • Novel hardware
> • Novel uses of production infrastructure
> • Software and services
> • Tools
> The conference proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press, USA and will be made
> available online through the IEEE Digital Library. Selected papers will be invited to submit extended
> versions to a special issue of the Future Generation Computer Systems (FGCS)journal.
> 
> SUBMISSION PROCESS
