Distributed Computing Conferences

	Grid 2009 "IEEE's Grid conference series is an annual international meeting that brings together a community of researchers, developers, practitioners, and user involved with Grid technology. The conference will feature invited talks, pre-coordinated workshops and refereed paper presentations." Technical papers will be accepted from March 2, 2009 through April 17, 2009. Grid 2009 will be held from October 12 - 16, 2009 in Banff, Alberta, Canada.
	CCGrid 2009 is the ninth annual "IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid." It will cover topics in the following subjects: Cluster technologies Grid Architectures and Systems Utility Computing Models for Clusters and Grids Grid Economies and Service Architectures Service Composition and Orchestration Middleware for Clusters and Grids Parallel and Wide-Area File Systems Peer-to-Peer Systems Cloud Computing Community and collaborative computing networks Grid Trust and Security Support for Autonomic Grid Infrastructure Resource Management Scheduling and Load Balancing Programming Models, Tools, and Environments Performance Evaluation and Modeling Grid-based Problem Solving Environments Scientific, Engineering, and Commercial Applications The conference will be held from May 18-21, 2009 in Shanghai, China. The deadline for submitting proposals is February 27, 2009. The registration deadline is March 15, 2009.
	The two-day Asia@home workshop will be held on April 16-17, 2009, at Academia Sinica in Taipei, Taiwan. The following information is from Dr. Francois Grey of CERN: "[The conference] will introduce the technologies underlying volunteer computing to scientists in Asia, who may be interested to use volunteer computing as a tool in their future research. The workshop takes a hands-on approach, mixing lectures by leading developers of volunteer computing software with case studies by scientists who have been applying it in a number of fields. In addition, topics such as the interfacing of Grid computing and cloud computing with volunteer computing will be addressed, with demos of practical solutions. "The participants will be tutored in several aspects of volunteer computing, including how to adapt existing code to run in volunteer computing mode, how to install a server for volunteer computing, and new trends in "volunteer thinking" projects where the volunteer does data analysis via a web interface. Participation in the workshop is free, although the number of participants will be restricted. So if you are interested, please register early. A detailed programme and list of confirmed lecturers is provided in the attached PDF file, as well as registration details. [The same information is on the program website.] "This workshop is a satellite event to the International Symposium on Grid Computing, 21-23 April, Academia Sinica, Taipei." The registration deadline is April 14, 2009.
