SCOPE

Global Computing systems, Desktop Grids and Peer-to-Peer
systems (P2P) aim to harness Internet-connected resources at a global
scale. These platforms can be built in a pre-defined, stable,
organized fashion (more like today's Grids) or can be self-
organizing, ad-hoc, decentralized, like in P2P systems.

Supporting computation on such systems raises a novel set of
questions. Because of size, autonomy and the high volatility of their
resources, these platforms provide the opportunity to revisit major
fields of distributed computing such as protocols, infrastructures,
security, fault tolerance, scheduling, performance, services,
applications, and incentives for cooperation. Moreover, new issues
concerning the installation, maintenance and scalability of large-scale
distributed systems become more relevant than ever.

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished work describing
current research and novel ideas in the area of Global, Desktop Grid
and Peer-to-Peer Computing as well as experiences with the deployment
of related technologies.

TOPICS

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Global Computing, Desktop Grids and Peer-to-Peer platforms
* P2P Merging/Interoperability with Grid standards (WSRF)
* Evaluation of software technologies for Global and P2P networks
* Middleware, programming models, environments and toolkits for Global
and P2P systems
* Protocols for resource management (discovery, reservation,
scheduling, monitoring)
* Networking protocols for high speed data dissemination and collection
* Storage in Global Computing infrastructures (strategies, protocols)
* Computational resource and data management
* Performance measurements, benchmarking, and modeling
* Simulators, emulators and real life testbeds
* Security (trust models, infrastructure)
* Result certification (detection/tolerance of corrupted results)
* Incentives for participation
* Economic considerations of resource usage (protocols, accounting)
* Applications (programmed from scratch, ported from sequential or parallel
  implementations, or adapted to fit a global computing environment)

PAPER SUBMISSION

Authors are invited to submit a full paper of up to 8 pages in IEEE format
(10pt font, two-columns, single-spaced). Information on paper submission is at
