Call For Paper

Sixth International Workshop on Advanced Parallel
Processing Technologies (APPT 2005)
27-28 Oct. 2005, Hong Kong, China
http://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/APPT05

APPT is a biennial workshop on parallel and distributed
processing. Its scope covers all aspects of parallel
and distributed computing technologies, including
architectures, software systems and tools, algorithms,
and applications. APPT was originated from
collaborations by researchers from China and Germany
and has evolved to be an international workshop. The
past five workshops were held in Beijing, Koblenz,
Changsha, Illmenau, and Xiamen, respectively. APPT'05
will be the sixth in the series. Following the success
of the last five workshops, APPT'05 provides a forum
for scientists and engineers in academia and industry
to exchange and discuss their experiences, new ideas,
and results about research in the areas related to
parallel and distributed processing

Papers are solicited. Topics of particular interest
include, but are not limited to :
-Parallel / Distributed System Architectures
-Advanced Microprocessor Architecture,
-Middleware, Software Tools and Environments
-Parallelizing Compilers,
-Software Engineering issues
-Interconnection Networks
-Network Protocols,
-Task Scheduling and Load Balancing
-Grid Computing, Cluster Computing, Peer-to-Peer
Computing
-Internet & Web computing
-Pervasive and Mobile Computing
-Security in networks and distributed systems
-Fault tolerance and dependability
-Image Generation and Processing: Rendering
Techniques, Virtual Reality, Visualization, Graphic
Processing, etc

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Prospective authors are invited to submit a full paper
in English (should not exceed 10 pages (12 pt) in
length) presenting original and unpublished research
results and experience. Papers will be selected based
on their originality, timeliness, significance,
relevance, and clarity of presentation. Papers must be
submitted in PDF (preferably) or Postscript that is
interpretable by Ghostscript. Submissions will be
carried out electronically on the Web via a link found
at the conference web page
http://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/APPT05/.

Submissions imply the willingness of at least one
author to register, attend the conference, and present
the paper. There will be two best student paper awards
to recognise distinguished student research.

PUBLICATION
