                         Call For Papers

The next generation of scientific research and experiments will be 
carried out by communities of researchers from organizations that span 
national boundaries. These activities will involve geographically 
distributed and heterogeneous resources such as computational systems, 
scientific instruments, databases, sensors, software components, 
networks, and people. Such large-scale and enhanced scientific 
endeavors, popularly termed as e-Science, are carried out via 
collaborations on a global scale.

Grid computing has emerged as one of the key computing paradigms that 
enable the creation and management of an Internet-based utility 
computing infrastructure, called cyberinfrastructure, for the 
realization of e-Science and e-Business at the global level. To harness 
the potential of e-Science and Grid computing paradigms, several 
national and international projects around the world have been initiated 
to carry out research and innovation activities that will transform the 
goal of e-Science and Grid computing into a reality.

The e-Science 2007 conference, sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society’s 
Technical Committee for Scalable Computing (TCSC), is designed to bring 
together leading international and interdisciplinary research 
communities, developers, and users of e-Science applications and 
enabling IT technologies. The conference serves as a forum to present 
the results of the latest research and product/tool developments, and 
highlight related activities from around the world.
