IEEE Cluster 2009 will hold four workshops, two on Monday, August 31, 2009, and two on Friday, September 4, 2009.
Each workshop will have its own requirements and schedule for submissions (but the registration fee for the workshops will be included as part of the conference registration fee). Workshops are expected to present work that is more cutting-edge and preliminary or that has more practical content than the more mature research presented in the main conference. Ultimately, the goal of the workshops will be to broaden the content of the week's presentations at IEEE Cluster 2009 by extending the topics of interest beyond those of the main conference. The workshops may also simultaneously deepen the week's presentations at IEEE Cluster 2009 by focusing on specific topics or bring together a critical mass of researchers in selected areas of interest.
For peer-reviewed workshops, workshop papers will appear as part of the IEEE Cluster 2009 proceedings.
The workshops are:
- Monday, August 31, 2009: High Performance Interconnects for Distributed Computing, (contact: Ada Gavrilovska)
- Monday, August 31, 2009: Workshop on Parallel Programming on Accelerator Clusters (PPAC), (contacts: Dimitris Nikolopoulos, Cal Ribbens)
- Friday, September 4, 2009: Interfaces and Abstractions for Scientific Data, (contact: Rob Ross)
- Friday, September 4, 2009: Web 2.0 on e-Research Infrastructure, Services and Applications, (contact: Mark Baker)
Questions about a specific workshop should be sent to the chair of that workshop. General questions about workshops can be e-mailed to the Cluster 2009 organizers.
