Challenges of Large Applications in Distributed Environments (CLADE)
Call For Papers
In conjunction with the 17th International Symposium on High Performance 
Distributed Computing (HPDC-17)
Boston, Massachusetts, June 23, 2008
http://www.cs.okstate.edu/clade2008/

Distributed cyberinfrastructure for the realization of e-Science and 
e-Business continues to be developed at a rapid pace and across diverse 
disciplines.  This development reinforces the need for effective 
distributed applications. From sensor data to online data collections to 
remote visualization, the most challenging problems will be solved by 
applications that can make effective use of such distributed, 
heterogeneous resources.  This workshop will highlight the successful 
development, deployment, management and evaluation of large scale 
applications in science, engineering, medicine, business, economics, 
education, and other disciplines, on Grids and other distributed 
heterogeneous and dynamic computing environments.

Topics of interest concerning e-Science and cyberinfrastructure include, 
but not limited to, the following:

* Large-scale distributed applications, both computational and data-centric
* Application-specific portals and problem solving Environment
* e-Science applications in physics, biology, astronomy, chemistry, 
finance, engineering, and medicine, etc.
* Large, distributed data analysis
* Scientific workflow
* Applications with heterogeneous spatial and temporal characteristics
* Distributed, multidimensional, dynamically adaptive applications
* Sensor Networks and Environmental Observatories in e-Science
* Examples of distributed applications benefiting from advances in
o Application hosting frameworks for distributed environments
o Runtime support for intelligent, adaptive systems
o Programming models for heterogeneous and dynamic computation
o Portability, quality of service, or fault-tolerance in cluster and 
Grid computation
o Resource management, dynamic scheduling or load balancing in 
heterogeneous environments
