     8th IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid
                        18-22 May 2008, Lyon, France
                       http://ccgrid2008.ens-lyon.fr

Call for Papers

CCGrid 2008 is the eight in a series of successful international 
symposia and
for the first time will take place in France, in Lyon. Grid Computing 
started
as a generalization of Cluster Computing, promising to deliver large scale
levels of parallelism to high-performance applications by crossing
administrative boundaries. Moreover, 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.

CCGrid 2008 provides researchers and practitioners with an excellent
opportunity to share their research and experience at the cross-roads of
Cluster and Grid Technology. The areas of interest include, but are not 
limited
to, the following:

*	Grid Architectures and Systems
*	Clusters technologies
*	Grid Economies and Service Architectures
*	Service Composition and Orchestration
*	Middleware for Clusters and Grids
*	Scheduling and Load Balancing
*	Parallel and Wide-Area File Systems
*	Peer-to-Peer Systems
*	Utility Computing Models for Clusters and Grids
*	Community and collaborative computing networks
*	Support for Self-Managing/Self-Configuring Grid Infrastructure
*	Grid Operating Systems
*	Resource Management
*	Programming Models, Tools, and Environments
*	Grid-based Problem Solving Environments
*	Performance Evaluation and Modeling
*	Scientific, Engineering, and Commercial Applications
*	Grid Trust and Security

Authors are invited to submit original papers of 8 pages maximum. Papers 
should
be double column text and follow the IEEE manuscript guidelines provided by
CCGrid2008 web site (on-line submission). Submission implies the 
willingness of
at least one of the authors to register and present the paper.
