Newsgroups: comp.parallel From: vss@mathcs.emory.edu (V.S.Sunderam) Subject: Call for Participation -- Cluster Computing Conference, Atlanta, Organization: Emory University, Dept of Math and CS Date: 6 Jan 1997 20:40:21 GMT Message-ID: <5arnvl$rvf@server1.ctc.com> The Cluster Computing Conference (CCC '97) will be held at Emory University, Atlanta, GA, from March 9-11, 1997. We invite your participation, as well as submissions for contributed presentations. CCC '97 will bring together researchers, practitioners, and others who are interested in cluster computing for high performance and distributed processing applications. Clusters range from specialized collections of processors interconnected by high-speed networks, to general purpose networks of workstations (NOW's), and may even encompass geographically distributed heterogeneous systems. Recent advances in processor, network, and software technology has led to a resurgence and increased interest in clusters. CCC '97 will discuss all aspects of cluster computing, including architectures, interconnection networks, operating systems and software frameworks, programming models, applications experiences, and performance issues. CCC '97 will take place at Emory University, Atlanta, from March 9-11, 1997, with tutorials on Sunday March 9, and the technical program on March 10-11. The keynote address will be given by Prof. Ken Kennedy. The conference will feature invited talks by prominent researchers, contributed presentations, a panel discussion, and tutorials. Submissions for contributed presentations are invited on all topics pertaining to cluster computing; additional information may be found at http://www.mathcs.emory.edu/~ccc97/ or by sending email to ccc97@mathcs.emory.edu CCC '97 is sponsored by NSF-CRPC, HP/Convex, and several other organizations and corporations.
