[DistComp] ICCS Workshop on Urgent Computing - NEW deadline: February 07, 2012

[Maciej Malawski]

We encourage you to submit a paper addressing algorithms, methods and
tools enabling prioritized and immediate access to large compute and
storage systems for emergency computations required for clever
decision making to the ICCS Workshop on Urgent Computing.

The new deadline is February 07, 2012.

  Objectives
  ==========
  Urgent computing is a new area of computer science addressing
  algorithms, methods and tools enabling prioritized and immediate
  access to large compute and storage systems for emergency computations
  required for clever decision making in critical situations like floods,
  earthquakes, wildfires, terroristic attacks, epidemics, pandemics,
  instabilities in financial markets etc. Urgent computing is still in
  development and the main aim of this workshop is to assess its current
  status and indentify the most important challenges.
  We invite users and developers of such applications, scientists working
  on methods and tools for urgent computing, resources providers, and
  decision makers to submit papers addressing topics related to urgent 
computing.

  Topics
  ======
  - applications requiring emergency computations
  - algorithms and methods of immediate access to large scale compute and
    storage
  - tools, environment and middleware for urgent computing
  - data placement, resource management and optimization for urgent
    computing
  - solutions enabling collaboration in urgent computing
  - SLA and policies in urgent situations
  - methods implementing urgent computing on a voluntary user-by-user
    basis
