7th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Grid Computing (Grid2006)
Barcelona, 28-29 September
http://www.grid2006.org

The Grid conference series is an anual international meeting that brings
together a community of researchers, developers, practitioners, and users
involved with Grid technology. The objective of the meeting is to serve as
both the premier conference presenting best Grid research and a forum where
new concepts can be introduced and explored.

For this, our seventh event, we will convene our first meeting as a conference
and this year we will be co-located with the 2006 Cluster conference.
The Grid 2006 Conference features keynote talks, panel, peer reviewed papers
presentations, and posters.

The program starts with a keynote from Malcolm Atkinson (Director of National
E-Science Centre, UK) on E-Science foundations. Other invited presentations
will be given by Wolfgang Boch, from the European Commission, about the EU Grid
research, and by our sponsors CoreGRID and IBM (LA Grid project). We foresee an
exciting panel led by Mark Linesch (Chair, Open Grid Forum=Global Grid
Forum+Enterprise Grid Alliance) about the perspectives of Grid standards.

The Grid 2006 conference received papers from 33 countries around the world.
The conference sessions features 38 excellent papers, which are competitively
selected (20% acceptance rate). They are organised into the following sessions:
Grid Workflow, Data Services and Scheduling, Data Resource Allocation,
Metadata, Grid Security, Data Streaming, Messaging and Performance.

Please visit the conference website for more details on the program!

Grid 2006 has been labelled a CoreGRID event.
