Call for Papers

Scope
CCGrid 2007 is the seventh in a series of successful international symposia and 
for the first time will take place in South America - in Rio de Janeiro, 
Brazil. Grid Computing started as a generalization of Cluster Computing, 
promising to deliver unprecedent levels of parallelism to high-performance 
applications by crossing administrative boundaries. Subsequently, this vision 
evolved to support on-demand access and composition of any computational 
service, provided by multiple independent sources. Under this new vision, 
Clusters gained renewed importance as the "super-servers" of the emerging Grid 
infrastructure. Meanwhile, the use of computational and data resources in 
high-performance applications, undertaken over Grid infrastructure, have 
started to now become a reality.
Today we face the huge challenge of making on-demand access to any 
computational service, the "computing as service" vision, a wide-spread 
reality. The CCGrid Symposium has been part of this journey, bringing together 
researchers and practitioners and enabling them to share their insight, 
results, and experience in the multifaceted areas of Grid and Cluster 
computing. Selected papers will be invited to a Special Issue of Concurrency 
and Computation: Practice and Experience.

Topics
The areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Grid Architectures and Systems
Middleware for Clusters and Grids
Grid Architectures and Systems
Middleware for Clusters and Grids
Resource Management
Peer-to-Peer Systems
Grid Trust and Security
Community networks
Scheduling and Load Balancing
Parallel and Wide-Area File Systems
Grid Economies and Service Architectures
Grid Economies and Service Architectures
Utility Computing Models for Clusters and Grids
Programming Models, Tools, and Environments
Performance Evaluation and Modeling
Grid-based Problem Solving Environments
Service Composition and Orchestration
Community and collaborative computing networks
Scientific, Engineering, and Commercial Applications
Support for Self-Managing/Self-Configuring Grid Infrastructure

Authors are invited to submit original papers of 8 pages maximum. Papers should 
be double column text, using single spaced 10 point size type on 
Letter(8.5"x11"), and follow the IEEE manuscript guidelines.
Submission is on-line only at the symposium web site or directly at the JEMS 
site. File format must be PDF. Proceedings will be published by the IEEE 
Computer Society. Electronic only submission at 
https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/ccgrid2007 Submission implies the willingness of 
at least one of the authors to register and present the paper.

Workshops, Tutorials, and Posters
Workshop proposals should be 4 pages maximum. Tutorials are 4-four pages long 
and require a 5th-page description including the presenters' vita and contents 
to be presented. Poster submission should be 2 pages maximum. Submission is 
on-line only at the symposium web site or directly at the
submission site. File format must be PDF. These rules should actually be asked 
to the appropriate chair.
