Dear all,
Please find attached the Call For Papers for:
International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing and
Applications (ISPA 2008) -
Workshop on High Performance and Grid Computing in Medicine and Biology
Sidney, Australia, December 10-12, 2008
http://sara.unile.it/hipgcomb08/
http://www.cs.usyd.edu.au/~ispa2008/
sponsored by IEEE Computer Society
HiPCoMB-2008 brings together researchers in computer science and
engineering, medicine, and biology that use high performance and grid
computing to solve computationally expensive problems in medicine and
biology. The workshop will provide a forum for presenting and exchanging
new ideas and experiences in this area.
IMPORTANT DEADLINES:
Paper submission: June 25, 2008
Author Notification: August 15, 2008
Camera-Ready Papers: September 15, 2008
Best regards,
Maria Mirto.

* Grid Computing Infrastructures, Middleware and Tools for Healthcare
* Grid Computing Biomedical Services
* Security in Biomedical Data Grids
* Semantic Grids for Multimedia Biomedical Data
* Ubiquitous Access to Grid-enabled Applications in Biomedicine
* High-performance Computing for Data-Centric Biomedical Applications
SUBMISSION INFORMATION:
Talks will be accepted on the basis of a paper of 6 pages IEEE CS
format that describes the work, its significance, and the current status
of the research. Submit one electronic copy of the paper in PostScript
or PDF format by June 25, 2008. Please visit the workshop home page for
submission instructions
(http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ispa08)
Submission of a paper should be regarded as a commitment that, if the
paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend
the conference.
Otherwise papers will be removed from the IEEE CS digital library.
Notification of acceptance will be given by August 15, 2008, and
camera-ready papers will be due September 15, 2008. Accepted papers will
be given guidelines in preparing and submitting the final
manuscript(s) together with the notification of acceptance. All
accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and included in
proceedings that will be distributed at the workshop. In addition,
authors of selected papers from the workshop will be invited to submit
extended versions of their papers for publication in a special issue of
the International International Journal of Supercomputing and
International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking
(IJHPCN).
