*GRIDNETS 2010*
4th International ICST Conference on Networks for Grid Applications
13-15 September 2010, Chicago, USA
www.gridnets.org <http://gridnets.org>
*CALL FOR PAPERS
*** DEADLINE EXTENDED***
*
*SPONSORS*
Sponsored by ICST <http://www.icst.org>
Technically co-sponsored by CREATE-NET <http://www.create-net.org>
***
*SCOPE*
GRIDNETS 2010 provides a focused and highly interactive forum where
researchers and technologists have the opportunity to present and
discuss leading research, developments, and future directions in the
Grid Networking area. The goal of this event is to serve as both the
premier conference presenting best Grid Networking research and a forum
where new concepts can be introduced and explored.
***
***TOPICS*
**Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following focus
areas:**
**
* Network architectures and technologies for grids
* Integration of advanced optical networking technologies into the
grid environment
* The network as a first class grid resource: network resource
information publication, brokering, and co-scheduling with other
resources
* Interaction of the network with distributed data management systems
* Network monitoring, traffic characterisation, and performance analysis
* Inter-layer interactions: optical layer with higher layer
protocols, integration among layers
* Experience with pre-production optical network infrastructures and
exchange points
* Peer-to-peer network enhancements applied to the grid
* Network support for wireless and ad hoc grids
* Data replication and multicasting strategies and novel data
transport protocols
* Cluster and high performance networks
* Networks for data centers
* Networks & cloud computing issues
* Fault-tolerance, self healing networks
* Security and scalability issues when connecting a large number of
sites within a virtual organization VPN
* Cloud networking and Grid Networking intersection
* Grid Networking and petascale computing
* Grid Networking for e-Science
* Terabit Grid Networking
* Digital media and Grid Networks
* Energy awareness and power consumption in grids
* Virtual networks
* Digital media networks
* Ad hoc networks
The organizers of GRIDNETS 2010 encourage submissions related to the
results of future network research activities. Currently, many large
scale advanced networking research projects have been established to
create new types of experimental research environments, such as the US
National Science Foundation's Global Environment for Network Innovations
(GENI), those being created in Europe through the EIFFEL (Evolved
Internet Future for European Leadership) and FIREworks (Future Internet
Research and Experimentation - Strategy Works) initiatives, in Japan
through the New Generation Internet program, and in many other
countries. In addition, various related initiatives, such as the NSF's
Future Internet Design (FIND), have been established to support research
using advanced network research testbeds. GridNets has been designed as
a forum in which the results of such activities can be presented and
discussed.
