++++ GridNets 2009 ++++
Third International ICST Conference on Networks for Grid Applications
September 7-9, 2009 - Athens (Greece)
http://www.gridnets.org
++ Sponsored by ICST ++
In cooperation with ACM SIGARCH
Technically co-sponsored by Create-Net
++ Paper submission deadline: May 8, 2009 ++
GridNets provides a focused and highly interactive forum where
researchers and technologists have the opportunity to present and
discuss leading research, developments, and future directions in the
Grid networking area. The goal of this event is to serve as both the
premier conference presenting best Grid Networking research and a forum
where new concepts can be introduced and explored.
Grid developers and practitioners are increasingly realizing the
importance of efficient network support. Entire classes of applications
would greatly benefit by a network-aware grid middleware, able to
effectively manage the network resource in terms of scheduling, access
and use. Conversely, the peculiar requirements of grid applications
provide stimulating drivers for new challenging research towards the
development of grid-aware networks.
Cooperation between grid middleware and network infrastructure driven by
a common control plane is a key factor to effectively empower the global
grid platform for the execution of network-intensive applications,
requiring massive data transfers, very fast and low-latency connections,
and stable and guaranteed transmission rates. Large e-science projects,
as well as industrial and engineering applications for data analysis,
image processing, multimedia, or visualisation just to name a few are
awaiting an efficient grid network support. They would be boosted by a
global grid platform enabling end-to-end dynamic bandwidth allocation,
broadband and low-latency access, interdomain access control, and other
network performance monitoring capabilities.
-- TOPICS --
* Network architectures and technologies for grids;
* Integration of advanced optical networking technologies into the
grid environment;
* The network as a first class grid resource: network resource
information publication, brokering and co-scheduling with other
resources;
* Interaction of the network with distributed data management systems;
* Network monitoring, traffic characterisation and performance analysis;
* Inter-layer interactions: optical layer with higher layer protocols,
integration among layers;
* Experience with pre-production optical network infrastructures and
exchange points;
* Peer-to-peer network enhancements applied to the grid;
* Network support for wireless and ad hoc grids;
* Data replication and multicasting strategies and novel data transport
protocols;
* Cluster and high performance networks;
* Networks for Data Centers;
* Networks & Cloud computing issues;
* Fault-tolerance, self healing networks;
* Security and scalability issues when connecting a large number of sites
within a virtual organization VPN;
* Energy awareness and power consumption in grids.
-- SUBMISSION --
Authors are invited to submit papers through the ASSYST conference
management system, according to the indications given on this page:
* http://gridnets.org/submission.shtml
Regular papers should be up to 8 pages. Only original papers,
written in English, which have not been published previously elsewhere,
will be considered for publication, after a peer-review process.
At least one author of each accepted paper must register and present
the work at the conference.
-- SPONSORSHIP --
The event is organized by ICST in cooperation with the ACM Special
Interest Groups on Computer Architecture (SIGARCH; pending).
All accepted papers will be published by Springer in the ICST Lecture
Notes (LNICST) series. The proceedings will be published by Springer and
will be available both as paper-based copies and via Springerlink,
Springer's digital library.
