+IPDPS 2010 CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Join us at IEEE IPDPS 2010 in Atlanta, Georgia on the Eastern Seaboard
of the USA.  IPDPS serves as a forum for engineers and scientists from
around the world to present their latest research findings in the
fields of parallel processing and distributed computing. The five-day
program will follow the usual format of contributed papers, invited
speakers, and panels mid week, framed by workshops held on the first
and last days. The PhD Forum, sponsored by TCPP, will continue in its
third year as a symposium premier event. For details and updates on
all events, visit the IPDPS Website.

++IPDPS 2010 CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
IPDPS workshops - held on the first and last days - provide attendees
an opportunity to explore special topics and are a major part of the
IPDPS weeklong family of events.  Each workshop has its own
requirements and schedule for submissions and all are linked from the
IPDPS Web site. The goal of the workshops is to present work that is
more preliminary and cutting-edge, or that has more practical content
than the more mature research presented in the main symposium. The
workshops also broaden the content of the week's presentations by
extending the topics of interest beyond those of the main symposium.

At the same time, they deepen the week's content by focusing on
specific topics and bringing together a critical mass of researchers
in their select areas.  For more information on organizing a workshop,

SCOPE
Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that present original
unpublished research in all areas of parallel and distributed
processing, including the development of experimental or commercial
systems. Work focusing on emerging technologies is especially welcome.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    Parallel and distributed algorithms, focusing on issues such as:
stability, scalability, and fault-tolerance of algorithms and data
structures for parallel and distributed systems, communication and
synchronization protocols, network algorithms, scheduling and load
balancing.
    Applications of parallel and distributed computing, including web
applications, peer-to-peer computing, grid computing, scientific
applications, and mobile computing. Papers focusing on applications
using novel commercial or research architectures, or discussing
scalability toward the exascale level are encouraged.
    Parallel and distributed architectures, including architectures
for instruction-level and thread-level parallelism; petascale and
exascale systems designs; special-purpose architectures, including
graphics processors, signal processors, network processors, media
accelerators and other special purpose processors and accelerators;
impact of technology on architecture; network and interconnect
architectures; parallel I/O and storage systems; architecture of the
memory hierarchy; power-efficient architectures; dependable
architectures; and performance modeling and evaluation.
    Parallel and distributed software, including parallel and
multicore programming languages and compilers, runtime systems,
operating systems, resource management, middleware, libraries,
performance modeling and evaluation, parallel programming paradigms,
and programming environments and tools.

BEST PAPERS AWARDS
Awards will be given for one best paper in each of the four conference
technical tracks: algorithms, applications, architectures, and
software.  Selected papers will be considered for possible publication
in a special issue of the Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing.

NOTE CHANGES IN SUBMISSION PROCESS
This year, IPDPS will require submission of abstracts one week before
the paper submission deadline of September 28th (abstracts due Monday,
September 21, 2009). Authors must submit the paper title, authors,
keywords/ topics, and the paper abstract.

WHAT/WHERE TO SUBMIT
Submitted manuscripts may not exceed 15 single-spaced pages using 12-
point size font on 8.5x11 inch pages, including figures, tables, and
references. Please use the standard 1-inch margin. Authors may submit
additional material as an appendix to their submission, but there is
no guarantee that this material will influence the review process.
Files should be submitted by following the instructions available at
www.ipdps.org
  (to be posted after August 1st). Authors must ensure that
electronically submitted files are formatted in PDF format for 8.5x11
inch paper. Authors who have e-mail access, but not web access, should
send an e-mail message to cfp@ipdps.org for an automatic reply that
will contain detailed instructions for submission of manuscripts. They
should also contact the Program Chair at: ipdps10@ipdps.org.  Authors
who have no electronic access (e-mail or web) should contact the
Program Chair at: Sandia National Laboratories, Mail Stop 1318, P.O.
Box 5800, Albuquerque, NM, 87185-1318, USA.

REVIEW OF MANUSCRIPTS
All submitted manuscripts will be reviewed. Submissions will be judged
on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance, quality
of presentation, and interest and relevance to the conference scope.

Submitted papers may NOT have appeared in, or be under consideration
for, another conference or workshop, or for a journal.  Abstracts
(typically a paragraph or two) must be received by Monday, September
21, 2009, by 11:59pm, U.S. Eastern Daylight Time.  Full manuscripts
must be received by September 28, 2009, by 11:59 PM, U.S. Eastern
Daylight Time. This is a final, hard deadline; to ensure fairness,
no extensions will be given. Notification of review decisions will be
mailed by December 7, 2009 (typically electronically). Camera-ready
papers will be due February 1, 2010.
