<pre> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *** Call for Papers *** WORKSHOP ON DATA-AWARE DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING (DADC'09) In conjunction with HPDC 2009, June 9-13, Munich, Germany http://www.cct.lsu.edu/~kosar/dadc09 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Second International Workshop on Data-Aware Distributed Computing (DADC'09) will be held in conjunction with the 18th International Symposium on High Performance Distributed Computing (HPDC-18), in Munich, Germany. The data requirements of scientific as well as commercial applications from a diverse range of fields have been increasing exponentially over the recent years. This increase in the demand for large-scale data processing has necessitated collaboration and sharing among the world's leading education, research, and industrial institutions and use of distributed resources owned by collaborating parties. In a widely distributed environment, data is no more locally accessible and has thus to be remotely retrieved and stored. While traditional distributed systems work well for computation that requires limited data handling, they fail in unexpected ways when the computation accesses, creates, and moves large amounts of data especially over wide-area networks. Scientists, researchers, and application developers are often forced to spend a great deal of time and energy on solving basic data-handling issues, such as the physical location of data, how to access it, and/or how to move it to visualization and/or compute resources for further analysis. This workshop will focus on the challenges of distributed systems imposed by the data intensive applications, and on the different state-of-the-art solutions proposed to overcome these challenges. A new paradigm called "data-aware distributed computing" and its application to different research realms such as scheduling, resource allocation, workflow management, and visualization will be discussed. With the knowledge of the correct data management techniques, the domain scientists will be able to focus on their primary goal, assured that their data management needs are handled reliably and efficiently. We believe this workshop will make a unique contribution to collaborative and distributed computing community by focusing on the planning, management, and scheduling of data handling tasks and data storage resources. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Data-intensive applications and their challenges - Data-aware toolkits, middleware, storage and file systems - Data-oriented batch schedulers and workflow managers - Data staging, replication, and remote access to data - Data placement, management, and scheduling techniques - Co-scheduling of computation, data storage, and network resources - Network support for data-intensive computing - High speed wide area data transfers and bulk data movement - Remote and distributed visualization of large scale data - Data-aware workflow and data-flow management - Cross-domain metadata and ontologies - Distributed and hierarchical storage management - Storage resource managers and brokers - Data archives, digital libraries, and preservations - Service oriented architectures for data-intensive computing - Protection of sensitive data in a collaborative environment - Peer-to-peer data movement and data streaming - Future research challenges in data-intensive computing IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract submission: February 13, 2008 Paper submission: February 20, 2008 Acceptance notification: March 15, 2008 Final papers due: April 1, 2008 PAPER SUBMISSIONS: DADC'09 invites authors to submit original and unpublished technical papers of at most 10 pages. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance, quality of presentation, and relevance to the workshop topics of interest. Submitted papers may not have appeared in or be under consideration for another workshop, conference or a journal, nor may they be under review or submitted to another forum during the DADC'09 review process. Papers should be prepared in ACM SIG Proceedings format and submitted electronically (in PDF format) via the HPDC 2009 conference web site.
