IPDPS 2006 CALL FOR PAPERS

20th IEEE International Parallel & Distributed Processing Symposium Tuesday, 25 April -- Saturday, 29 April 2006 Rodos Palace Resort Hotel & Convention Center Rhodes Island, Greece
Sponsored by: IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Parallel
Processing
In cooperation with: ACM SIGARCH, IEEE Computer Society Technical
Committee on Computer Architecture, and IEEE Computer
Society Technical Committee on Distributed Processing Hosted by: Research Academic Computer Technology Institute (CTI, Greece)
IPDPS 2006 CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
IPDPS serves as a forum for engineers and scientists from around the world to present their latest research findings in the fields of parallel processing and distributed computing. The five-day program will follow the usual format of contributed papers, invited speakers, panels, and commercial participation mid week, framed by workshops held on the first and last days; this year in Greece that will be Tuesday and Saturday. Visit this Web site for regular updates, including the advance program, registration, and accommodations. Send general email inquiries to [email protected].

IPDPS 2006 CALL FOR PAPERS
Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that present original unpublished research in all areas of parallel and distributed processing, including the development of experimental or commercial systems. Work focusing on emerging technologies is especially welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
--Parallel and distributed algorithms, focusing on issues such as:
stability, scalability, and fault tolerance of distributed systems,
communication and synchronization protocols, network algorithms, and
scheduling and load balancing.
--Applications of parallel and distributed computing, including web
applications, peer-to-peer computing, grid computing, scientific
applications, and mobile computing.
--Parallel and distributed architectures, including shared memory,
distributed memory (including petascale system designs, and
architectures with instruction-level and thread-level parallelism),
special-purpose models (including signal and image processors,
network processors, other special purpose processors),
nontraditional processor technologies, network and interconnect
architecture, parallel I/
