Extended Call for Papers

Important Dates March 10, 2005: Draft papers due March 31, 2005: Accept Notification April 20, 2005: Camera-Ready papers due

The International Conference on Communications in Computing (CIC) focuses on the communication requirements directly induced or required by computations. An essential element of high performance computing is the trade-off in the amount of computation versus the amount of communication performed. Certain applications are inherently communication-intensive. In others, communication steps may be replaceable with local computations and vice versa.

This conference provides a venue for scholarly publication that explores issues relating to the combined effects of communications and computations in the context of modern computing systems. CIC is part of the International Multiconference in Computer Science and Computer Engineering. Following the recent broadening of the field of parallel and distributed computing, CIC covers all current research endeavors in this field. Submissions are also encouraged from researchers in other areas of computing and from related areas in physics, computer engineering or other areas of study whose work supports the focus of this conference.

Suggested Topics

• Communication Aspects of Parallel & Distributed Algorithms

• Communications in High Performance Computing

• Distributed Systems and Advanced Applications (e.g. multimedia, cooperative systems)

• Grid, Peer-to-Peer Computing and Cluster-based Computing

• Interconnection Networks (e.g. bus-based, optical)

• Networks (e.g. management, traffic analysis)

• Communication Protocols (e.g. ATM, wireless)

• Scalable and Interoperable Systems and Associated Standards

• Performance Issues (e.g. benchmarks, measurement, evaluation)

• Architecture (e.g. VLSI, SIMD, ,vector, reconfigurable)

• Software Systems (e.g. operating system support, middleware, tools)

• Visualization (e.g. debugging and load balancing tools)

• Communications in Neural Computing, Genetic Algorithms

• Communications in New Computing Paradigms (e.g. optical-, nano-, bio-computing)

• Modeling and Simulation of High Performance Systems

• Advanced Compilation Techniques (e.g. parallelizing compilers)

• Programming Languages for Parallel and other High Performance Computing Environments

• Reliability and Fault Tolerance

• Embedded and Real Time Systems

• Digital Signal Processing

• Internet & Web-based Processing, E-commerce, Telecommunication

Submission

Prospective authors are invited to submit a draft paper of no more than 7 pages (IEEE style, preferably two-columns, 11 or 12pt font size, Times-roman or similar) to snipped-for-privacy@cs.utep.edu by the due date. Email submissions in PDF format are preferable (MS Word documents can also be accepted). Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. The first page of the paper should include: paper title; name, affiliation, postal address, email address, telephone and fax number of each author and a maximum of five keywords. Also include in the submission the name of the author who will be presenting the paper (if accepted).

Evaluation

Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity of presentation, technical soundness and relevance to the conference. Each paper will be refereed by two researchers in the topical area. The Camera-Ready papers will/may be reviewed by one person.
