SAC’06:
For the past twenty
years the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC) has been a primary forum for
applied computer scientists, computer engineers and application developers to
gather, interact, and present their work. SAC is sponsored by the ACM Special
Interest Group on Applied Computing (SIGAPP); its proceedings are published by
ACM in both printed form and CD-ROM; they are also available on the web through
ACM’s Digital Library. More information about SIGAPP and past SACs can be found
at http://www.acm.org/sigapp/.
Special Track on Distributed Systems and Grid Computing
A special track on Distributed Systems and Grid Computing will be held in
SAC2006.
This track aims to be a forum for
scientists, engineers and practitioners, in academia, industry and
research institutes to share technical ideas, experienc and results,
and to present their latest findings in any aspects of distributed and
grid computing. The track will emphasize the design, architecture and
software of parallel/distributed systems and Grid computing with their
scientific and engineering applications.
Major topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
- Software environments, middleware, compilers, and programming language
support for distributed systems and Grid computing
- Parallel and distributed architectures
- Parallel and distributed algorithms
- Optimizing compilers for high-performance computing
- High performance Java
- Load sharing and balancing
- Task mapping and job scheduling
- Resource allocation and management
- Architecture and operating system support for parallel systems
|
- Supercomputing applications
- Scalable servers
- Application studies using distributed systems and Grid computing
- Clusters
- Data Grids
- Peer to Peer (desktop PC Grids)
- High performance I/O and file systems
- Security, reliability, configuration, policy, and management issues in Grids
- Performance analysis, modeling, simulation, and prediction
- Design or use of commercial Grid systems

Guidelines for Submission:
Original
papers from the above-mentioned or other related areas will be considered. This
includes three categories of submissions: 1) original and unpublished research;
2) reports of innovative computing applications in the arts, sciences,
engineering, business, government, education and industry; and 3) reports of
successful technology transfer to new problem domains. Each submitted paper will
be fully refereed and undergo a blind review process by at least three
referees. Accepted papers in all categories will be published in the ACM SAC’06
proceedings.
Submit your abstract and paper
here .
You will first be asked to
register your paper. After registering, you can submit or update the
abstract and paper for review.
The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the
paper, and self-reference should be in the third person. This is to
facilitate blind review. The body of the paper should not exceed 4,000
words (approximately 15 pages, double-spaced, 12-point font size).
The final version (camera-ready) of the accepted papers should be
submitted in PDF format so that they can be included in the proceedings
as well as in the ACM Digital Library
