Call for Papers
 
HPCS is a multi-disciplinary meeting to discuss new and exciting
scientific and technical work involving High Performance Computing.
Researchers from all disciplines in the sciences, engineering,
mathematics and applied human sciences are invited to participate. All
papers will be refereed.  Both oral presentations and posters sessions
will be available. 
 
Students are particularly encouraged to submit papers.
 
There will be multiple parallel paper sessions as well as poster
presentations, industrial events and discussion forums.
 
HPCS 2005 has designated eight themes but all relevant HPC and
HPC-related research will be considered. The themes are:
      1. Computational Sciences and Engineering
      2. Computational Mathematics
      3. Computational Challenges - frontier computations
      4. Computational Infrastructure - hardware, architecture, Grid
      5. HPC Tools and Software
      6. Algorithms, Complexity and Theory
      7. Applications of HPC - computational finance, economics,
modelling, etc.
      8. HPC in the Life Sciences
 
All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings to be published by
the IEEE.  
 
Formatting information is available on the conference website
(http://www.sharcnet.ca/events/hpcs2005). There is a 7 page limit on
papers.  For those papers that are given poster presentations, a
description of the poster format will also be added the website.  
 
Information about the scientific and organizing committees appears on
the website.
 
For more information, please email hpcs2005 at sharcnet.ca  
 
The 3rd annual OSCAR (Open Source Cluster Application Resources)
Symposium will be held in conjunction with HPCS 2005, as per below
 
===============================================================
OSCAR'05: The 3rd Annual Symposium on Open Source Cluster Application
Resources (OSCAR)

oscar05 at mailhub.ornl.gov 
===============================================================
 
Call for Papers
 
With over 130,000 downloads since its first public release in April
2001, OSCAR's popularity speaks to its effectiveness in providing
cluster installation, management, and computing software stack. OSCAR is
a snapshot of best-known methods for building, programming and using
clusters. OSCAR started as a traditional Beowulf software stack, has
expanded in recent years to embrace numerous cluster computing styles
including diskless, high-availability, scalable systems, and single
system image. The project is an open effort among industry, academic and
research groups to help simplify the setup and management of computing
clusters. Further information is available at the OSCAR web site,
http://oscar.openclustergroup.org/.  
 
Topics of interest:
 
Authors are encouraged to submit papers related to OSCAR software stack
- including but not limited to the following:
* Experiences using the OSCAR environment
* Packages to consider adding to the OSCAR software stack
* Clustering Frameworks
* Cluster and Grid as it relates to OSCAR
* Experiences creating OSCAR packages
* Proposals for new OSCAR projects or distributions
* Experiences creating new OSCAR distributions
* Cluster tools
* Design proposals
* Experiences in cluster and grid computing
 
 
Submission Guidelines:
All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings to be published by
the IEEE.  Formatting information will be available on the conference
website. Papers will be limited to 7-pages.
 
 
Important Dates for both HPCS 2005 and OSCAR'05:
 
*Submission Deadline: December 15, 2004
*Acceptance Notification: January 31, 2005
*Revision Deadline: February 14, 2005
 
Submit papers via hpcs2005 at sharcnet.ca or oscar05 at mailhub.ornl.gov
