2nd IFIP International Workshop on Advanced Topics
in Network Computing, Technology, and Application (ATNCTA 2008) [Deadline Extended] [ PDF ]

October 18-19, 2008, Shanghai, China

ATNCTA 2008, the 2nd IFIP International Workshop on Advanced Topics in Network Computing, Technology, and Application, will be held from 18 to 20, Oct. 2008. The aim of this workshop is to provide a distinctive premier international forum for active researchers, developers, professionals and academics to share state-of-the-art research achievements and practical experiences, to exchange in-depth findings and innovative ideas, and in particular to harness the greatest challenges and think seriously into the novel approaches and innovative directions in network computing.

CWUWNet 2008, the 1st International Workshop on UnderWater Networks

CWUWNet 2008, the 1st International Workshop on UnderWater Networks, will be held from 18 to 20, Oct. 2008.The goal of CWUWNet is to bring together researchers and practioners in areas relevant to underwater networks. Thus, many layers of the "stack" from the physical layer to the application layer will be represented. The objective is to serve as a forum for presenting state of the art research, exchanging ideas and experiences, and facilitating interaction and collaboration.

First International Workshop on High Performance Networks (HPN)[ PDF ]

http://www.it.fudan.edu.cn/sonic/hpn2008

HPN2008, the International Workshop on High Performance Network, will be held from 18 to 20, Oct. 2008. Shanghai is China’s largest city. HPN2008 serves as a forum for researchers and engineers to discuss current challenges in high performance network and to present recent work and research results.

Current network communications face the challenges of the limited network resources, ever-increasing traffic, etc. The continuous technological advances are expected to make network performance better. This workshop will focus on various aspects of high performance network. For instance, network coding has emerged as an active research area which reveals that packets traversing a network can be combined and mixed rather than merely forwarded.

First international Workshop on High Performance Scientific and Engineering Computing with Applications (HPSECA2008) [ PDF ]

October 18‐19, 2008, Shanghai, China 

High performance scientific and engineering computing has become a key technology which will play an important part in determining, or at least shaping, future research and development activities in many academic and industrial branches, especially when the solution of large and complex problems must cope with tight timing schedules.

This special workshop will continue to attract and bring together, as in earlier years, computer scientists and engineers, applied mathematicians, researchers in other applied fields, industrial professionals to present, discuss and exchange idea, results, work in progress and experience of research in the area of high performance computing for problems in science and engineering applications.

The First IFIP International Workshop on Distributed Knowledge Management, 2008 (DKM 2008) [ PDF ]

DKM 2008, the First IFIP International Workshop on Distributed Knowledge Management, will be held from 18 to 20, Oct. 2008 in Shanghai. Shanghai is China’s largest city. DKM 2008 serves as a forum for researchers and engineers to discuss current challenges, to exchange ideas and to report state of the art research results of knowledge management in the distributed network environment.

KM is an exciting and hottest subject of the day, which will affect every aspect of our life and industries in the future. Knowledge Management (KM) by organizations or communities comprises a range of activities and processes to identify, create, evaluate, represent, disseminate and reuse knowledge items. New and effective methods, frameworks, technologies are required, especially in the distributed networked environment.
