''The International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing and Systems (PDCS 2011) will bring together researchers, engineers, and practitioners from academia, industry and governments around the world to advance the theories and technologies of parallel and distributed computing and systems by sharing their ideas, results, insights, and experiences on these topics. 

== Topic == 

Exploring parallelism and concurrency is an efficient way of sharing interconnected processing and data resources to speed up time-critical computation, lower costs of design and production, increase profit, create a better business environment, and improve societal welfare. PDCS 2011 is an international conference series that focuses on the design, analysis, implementation, evaluation, and application of parallel and distributed processing architectures, networks, algorithms, software, and systems.

== Submission == 

Submit your paper via our website at: http://www.iasted.org/conferences/submit-757.html. All submissions should be in Adobe Acrobat (.PDF) format. 

The IASTED Secretariat must receive your paper by '''September 5, 2011'''. Receipt of paper submission will be confirmed by email. 

'''Initial Paper Requirements''' 

All papers submitted to IASTED conferences must be previously unpublished and may not be considered for publication elsewhere at any time during IASTED's review period. Authors are limited to a maximum of three paper submissions. 

Initial paper submissions should be full papers. Papers of up to 8 pages in length are included in the conference registration fee. An extra charge will apply for every additional page for papers longer than 8 pages. Authors are responsible for having their papers checked for style and grammar before submitting to IASTED. Papers may be rejected if the language is not satisfactory. 

When submitting a paper, complete the online initial paper submission form, designating an author who will attend the conference, and provide four key words to indicate the subject area of your paper. At least one of the key words must be taken from the list of topics provided under Scope, above. 

Formatting instructions for initial papers are available at http://www.iasted.org/formatting-initial-page.html. 

'''Reviewing''' 

All papers submitted to this conference will be double-blind peer reviewed by at least two members of the International Program Committee and related technical committees. Acceptance will be based primarily on originality, significance, technical soundness, presentation, and references. The conference chair makes the final decision on the acceptance or rejection of the paper. 

'''Acceptance and Registration''' 

Notification of acceptance will be sent via email by '''October 7, 2011'''. Final manuscripts are due by '''October 28, 2011'''. Registration and final payment are due by '''November 1, 2011'''. Late registration fees or paper submissions will result in the papers being excluded from the conference proceedings. 

Only one paper of up to eight pages is included in the regular registration fee. There will be an added charge for extra pages and additional papers. 

'''Final Paper Requirements''' 

The final paper must be correctly formatted and submitted online at http://pdfportal.iasted.org. 

The formatting instructions can be found at: http://www.iasted.org/formatting-final-page.html and must be strictly followed. The page limit for final papers is eight single-spaced pages in 10 point Times New Roman font. 

Kewl you should come up with that. Exceellnt!

== Special Sessions == 

Special session proposals must be emailed to calgary@iasted.org by '''September 5, 2011'''. Proposals should include a session title, a list of the topics covered, and the qualifications and brief biography of the session organizer(s). 

Papers submitted to the special session must be received by '''September 5, 2011''', unless otherwise stipulated by the Special Session Organizer. A minimum of five papers must be registered and fully paid in order for this session to be included in the conference program. 

More information on special sessions is available at http://www.iasted.org/conferences/specialsession-757.html. 

What a neat article. I had no iklning.
