HPGC 2010 - The International Workshop on High Performance Geo-Computation (HPGC 2010)

The International Workshop on High Performance Geo-Computation
(HPGC 2010)

In recent years, the use of computation-intensive techniques for spatial data processing and analysis has grown into an important scientific field. High Performance Geo-computation is the application of computational science to Earth sciences. It applies advanced computational resources, such as Cluster, Grid and Cloud, to various types of Earth science data, information, and models for solving Earth science problems. It develops discipline-specific theories, algorithms, architectures, systems, supporting tools, and infrastructure within the overall context of computational science. The areas of application for Geo-Computation include, but are not limited to, spatial data analysis, dynamic modeling, simulation, space-time dynamics and visualization, virtual reality, and applications employing non-conventional data clustering and analysis techniques.

Workshop Main Topic (but not limited to)

?Algorithms, model and experiment on parallel remote sensing image processing

?Algorithms, model and experiment on parallel geo-science module and simulation

?Algorithms, model and experiment on parallel GIS

?Geo-computation based on Grid facility

?Geo-computation based on Cloud facility

Paper Submission

Unpublished papers reporting original research results and experience are solicited. Each paper, written in English, should be no more than 6 pages (GCC2010 paper format), including references and Illustrations. Electronic submissions in PDF format are strongly recommended. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will attend the workshop to present the paper.
