Call For Papers
Workshop on Java in Computational Science
***
Deadline now 30th January ***
Held in conjunction
with the
International
Conference on Computational Science 2003 (ICCS 2003)
June 2 - 4, 2003
Melbourne, Australia
Workshop co-chairs
Andrew Wendelborn and Paul Coddington
(University of Adelaide)
Background
The Java programming language is widely used for commercial applications and in teaching programming, but its uptake in scientific computing has been limited.
Advantages of Java include portability, modern object-oriented technology, and in-built support for thread parallelism, although there is a perception that it lacks performance relative to other languages.
The purpose of this workshop is to enable, firstly, computational scientists to report experiences in using Java for computational science and high-performance computing, and secondly, researchers in high-performance Java to share recent advances with the computational science community. Topics will include applications, performance and benchmarking, parallel computing, and supporting technologies.
Call For Workshop
Papers
This is a general call for papers about Java in Computational Science. We invite papers involving the use of Java in developing and supporting scientific applications. In addition, papers related to advances in supporting technologies, such as Java compiler techniques for high-performance computing, will be of interest.
Topics of interest for this workshop
include but are not limited to:
o
High-performance
computing applications using Java;
o
Performance
issues and benchmarking ;
o
Advances
in parallel and distributed programming using Java;
o
Java
tools in scientific applications (portals etc);
o
Advances
in Java technologies supporting HPC;
o
Optimisation
technologies;
o
Problem
Solving Environments;
o
Visualization.

Submission Details
We invite you to submit full papers of
6 to 10 pages (Letter or A4 paper) for oral presentation. Submitted papers have
to be original, containing new and original results. The submitted paper must
be camera-ready and formatted according to the rules of LNCS. See http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
for formatting information. All papers selected for this Workshop will be
peer-reviewed and published in ICCS conference proceedings. The proceedings of
the Conference will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in
Computer Science (LNCS) series. A selected number of papers will also be
published as special issues in appropriate journals. A compressed Postscript or
PDF version of your paper should be submitted by email to both of the workshop co-chairs:
please mail to both because we will be on holidays at the time, and this will
make it easier to respond to email.
