CALL FOR PAPERS
2nd International Workshop on High Performance Grid Middleware, 
HiPerGRID 2008

http://hipergrid.grid.pub.ro

Organized by University Politehnica of Bucharest
21-22 November 2008, Bucharest, Romania


Scope and Motivation
-------------------------------
Grid Middleware refers to resource management, execution management, 
data management, security, monitoring and discovery, accounting, and 
other functions required by Virtual Organizations to operate effectively 
a shared services environment. Obtaining high performance Grid 
Middleware through new, innovative solutions is a challenge of today 
research, due to the strong requirements imposed by the dynamic behavior 
of the user and resource  communities that compose the Virtual 
Organizations. Another important role of middleware is to create a 
dependable architecture for Grid as part of the
large scale distributed systems vision.
The purpose of this workshop is to provide an open forum for researchers 
from the Grid middleware community to present, discuss, and exchange 
research-related ideas, results, and experiences in the area of high 
performance grid middleware. Establish further subject for cooperation 
and common project is also at the aim of this workshop.


Topics of Interest
-------------------------
Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
* Grid middleware services
* Grid scheduling architectures
* Grid Resource Management
* Dependable middleware architectures
* Grid Monitoring and information systems
* Distributed data storage on Grids
* Multi-level scheduling strategies
* Scheduling of high performance parallel applications
* Load balancing and load sharing
* Fault-tolerance, reliability, and replication
* Automatic performance optimization
* Modeling, simulation and evaluation of Grid middleware
* Performance prediction
* Grid security
