HiPerGRID 2016 - Special Session on High Performance Grid Middleware

HiPerGRID is an annual event dedicated to dissemination and evaluation of current advances in Grid, Cloud and Datacenters research. Following the success of last years HiPerGRID invited session held in conjunction with the International Conference on Intelligent Computer Communication and Processing (ICCP) organised in Cluj-Napoca, Romania by Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, aims at providing a venue and an open forum for researchers, designers, practitioners, developers, and industrial/governmental partners to present, discuss, and exchange related ideas, results, and experiences in the area of distributed systems. HiPerGRID supports community of researchers, developers, practitioners as well as current and potential Grid users who work in the field of grid technologies and their applications.
Grid Middleware refers to resource management, execution management, data management, security, monitoring and discovery, accounting, and other functions required by Virtual Organizations to operate effectively a shared services environment. Obtaining high performance Grid Middleware through new, innovative solutions is a challenge of today research, due to the strong requirements imposed by the dynamic behavior of the user and resource communities. The event also aims at stimulating synergies between Grid communities and related technology communities (P2P, Service Orientation, Workflow management).
We cordially invite you to submit your contribution to the Special Session on High Performance Grid Middleware (HiPerGRID 2016). The scope of the special session includes, but is not limited to:
Service Oriented Architecture
Cloud computing
Grid and Cluster computing
P2P computing
Scheduling and Meta-scheduling
Load balancing and load sharing
Resource Management
Grid Monitoring and Control
Distributed data storage and retrieval
Data transfer and management
Fault-tolerance and replication
QoS and SLA
Modeling and simulation
Performance evaluation and prediction
Workflow management
Security
HiPerGRID special session will be of interest to the ICCP community because it highlights the consideration of high performance middleware for distributed systems, which is explicitly focused on resource utilization and combines local and global enforcement solutions, supports the estimation of resources needed, scalability, mobility, reliability, and fault tolerance.
