[Laurence T. Yang]

The 2007 International Symposium on Parallel and
Distributed Processing with Applications (ISPA-07)

Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada - August 21-24, 2007
In Cooperation with IEEE Computer Society TCSC
http://www.ispa-conference.org/2007 or http://www.cs.umanitoba.ca/~ispa07


Introduction

Following the traditions of previous successful ISPA conferences, 
ISPA-03(held in Aizu-Wakamatsu City, Japan), ISPA-04 (held in Hong 
Kong), ISPA-05 (held in Nanjing, China), and ISPA-06 (held in Sorrento, 
Italy) the objective of ISPA-07 is to provide a forum for scientists and 
engineers in academia and industry to exchange and discuss their 
experiences, new ideas, research results, and applications about all 
aspects of parallel and distributed computing and networking. It will 
feature session presentations, workshops, tutorials and keynote speeches.

Scope and Interests

The Conference invites papers on all aspects of Parallel/Distributed
Computing and Networking, and their applications. Topics of interest 
include, but are not limited to:

Computer networks
Network routing and communication algorithms
Parallel/distributed system architectures
Tools and environments for software development
Parallel/distributed algorithms
Distributed systems and applications
Wireless networks, mobile and pervasive computing
Reliability, fault-tolerance, and security
Performance evaluation and measurements
Grid and cluster computing
Internet computing and Web technologies
Database applications and data mining
High-performance scientific and engineering computing

Submission Information

The conference and workshop proceedings will be published by Lecture 
Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). Papers not exceed 15 pages with free 
layout style should be submitted through: http://cse.stfx.ca/~ispa07/. 
Submission of a paper should be regarded as a commitment that, if the 
paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend 
the conference. Otherwise papers will be removed from the LNCS digital 
library.
