CALL FOR PAPERS

The 27th IEEE International Performance Computing and Communications
Conference (IPCCC 2008)
(http://www.ipccc.org/)
December 8-10, 2008   Austin, Texas, USA

The International Performance, Computing, and Communications Conference
(IPCCC) is
the premier IEEE conference presenting research in the performance of
computer and
communication systems. For more than two decades, IPCCC has been a research
forum
for academic, industrial, and government researchers.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The theme of IPCCC 2008 is ¡°Computing for Emerging Networked Systems¡±.  To
capture
the recent exciting innovations in the system research, IPCCC 2008 will
explore and
articulate (i) the challenges and opportunities as parallel and distributed
systems
are scaling large and networked over the internet; (ii) the challenges and
opportunities
as multicore processors are becoming the mainstream desktop processors and
networked
onchip; (iii) the challenges and opportunities as embedded systems are
becoming
ubiquitous and networked through wireless communication.

We encourage submission of high-quality papers that address the thematic
topics as
well as other topics in theoretical and experimental areas of system
research.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

   Grid and cloud computing
   Internet Services and Network Management
   Network protocols
   Network Information Assurance, and Security

   Multi- and single- core processor architecture
   Cache, Memory, and Disk Storage Systems
   Workload Characterization and its Impact on Architecture Design
   Embedded Systems
   Ubiquitous computing
   Mobile ad hoc, Sensor and Mesh Networks
   Parallel and Distributed Systems
   Performance Evaluation and Modeling
   Performance Tools and Techniques

In addition, proposals for panel sessions and workshops on relevant topics
are welcome.
Workshops may be for a full day or half a day. Workshop papers will be
published in the
conference proceedings.

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Submitted manuscripts must have at least 11-point font size, and should not
exceed 12
pages formatted in IEEE conference style, including the abstract, figures,
and
references. Authors should obtain company and government clearances prior to
submission
of papers.

All papers will be reviewed by the program committee. They will be judged
with respect
to their quality, originality, and relevance. All accepted papers will be
published in
the conference proceedings, conditional upon the author's advance
registration. Note
that one full (non-student) registration fee must be paid for each paper
published in
the proceedings, and that submission of a paper entails a professional
obligation to
attend and present your paper at the conference if it is accepted.

Authors MUST submit their papers electronically using EDAS (http://edas.info
).
