[Dbworld] Deadline Approaching - CFP: SAG'04

SAG'04 First International workshop on SCIENTIFIC APPLICATIONS of GRID Computing (SAG'04) http://laurel.datsi.fi.upm.es/SAG04 On the 2004 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Joint Conference on Web Intelligence (WI 2004) http://www.maebashi-it.org/WI04/ http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/WI04/ Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT 2004) http://www.maebashi-it.org/IAT04/ http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/IAT04/ Beijing, China, 20 Sept - 24 Sept 2004 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the last few years, an increasing number of scientific applications have demanded an intensive use of computational resources. Furthermore, these applications must access to large data collections, making use of huge storage systems. Within this framework, grid computing provides a dynamic and heterogeneous infrastructure to complex scientific applications. The great challenge of grid computing is the complete integration of heterogeneous computing systems and data resources with the aim of providing a global computing space. The achievement of this goal is involving revolutionary changes in the field of computation, because it is enabling resource-sharing across networks. SAG'04 is an international meeting that brings together a community of researchers, developers and users involved with the Grid with a common aim: present current and emerging work as well as to exchange research ideas and future directions in this field. TOPICS OF INTEREST include, but are not limited to: * Computational grids * Grid infrastructures for data analysis * High-performance computing for data-intensive applications * Grid computing infrastructures, middleware and tools * Grid computing services * Grid and cluster computing * Collaboration technologies * Databases and the grid * Extracting knowledge from data grids * Data mining grids * Agent-based management of data in distributed systems * Agent architectures for grid environments * Semantic Grid * Data grids for bioinformatics * Security in data grids IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for paper submission July 15th, 2004 Notification of acceptance August 7th, 2004 Deadline for camera-ready papers August 15th, 2004 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of expression. Submissions should be forwarded electronically (PDF format) to: sag04-fEBJzArUy1LypFypRcl3w2KZAwSD1GT0@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MANUSCRIPT GUIDELINES All submissions must be in English. Research submissions must not exceed 8 pages of double column text using single spaced 10 point size type on 8.5 x 11 inch pages, as per IEEE 8.5 x 11 manuscript guidelines.

[Dbworld] Call for Papers: GEOINFO 2004 - VI Brazilian Symposium on Geoinformatics

GEOINFO 2004 CALL FOR PAPERS VI BRAZILIAN SYMPOSIUM ON GEOINFORMATICS November 22-24, 2004, Campos do Jordao, Brazil Promoted by SBC (Brazilian Computing Society) Sponsored by IFIP (International Federation for Information Processing) Working Group 2.6 DATABASES Organized by UFRGS and INPE The GEOINFO series of conferences has been organized since 1999 and provides a premier forum for: sharing research solutions in the area of geoinformatics as well as promoting the exchange of geotechnologies and experience among researchers and application engineers, and identifying new issues and directions for future research in geoinformatics and beyond. GEOINFO 2004 will be held in Campos do Jordão, an attractive tourist destination which is located at 1,700 meters above the sea level on the mountains of Serra da Mantiqueira, 186Km away from the city of Rio de Janeiro and 330Km from São Paulo. It is famous for its mild weather as well as its mountain trails. The central European heritage can be perceived in both architecture and food. GEOINFO 2004 invites research submissions on topics related to geoinformatics, including but not limited to those listed below: - Spatial databases - Spatial and spatio-temporal data models and modeling techniques - GIS interoperability and patterns - Ontologies for geographical data - Spatial metadata - Spatial, spatio-temporal and multidimensional access methods - Spatial query processing and optimization - Multiple representations of geographical data - Computational geometry - Virtual reality and 3D GIS - Very large and parallel GIS processing - GIS and the Internet - Mobile as well as distributed GIS services - Real time spatio-temporal GIS - Spatial and spatio-temporal data mining and knowledge discovery - Geographical data quality - Content based image retrieval - Spatial statistics and analysis - Innovative geoprocessing based applications Paper Submission Guidelines: Authors are invited to submit papers describing either ongoing or recently completed, original research. For the first time the GEOINFO conference we will be accepting both long and short papers. Long papers must be written in English and may not exceed 8 pages. Short papers can be written either in English or in Portuguese, not exceeding 5 pages, and are meant to present results of ongoing research of graduate students. Only electronic submissions will be accepted. Papers in English must be submitted through the site http://www.geoinfo.info/geoinfo2004/paper.html, while the submission of papers in Portuguese must be done through the site http://www.geoinfo.info/portuguese/geoinfo2004/paper.html.
