--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Commodity clusters today provide a convenient and cost-effective platform for
executing complex computation-, data- and/or transaction-centric applications.
Many research and development challenges remain in all areas of cluster computing, including middleware, networking, algorithms and applications, resource management, platform deployment and maintenance, and integration of clusters into computational grids. Cluster 2005 provides an open forum for researchers, practitioners and users to present and discuss issues, directions, and results that will shape the future of cluster computing. This years event is to be held in and around Boston / Cambridge. 

See the upcoming Call for Participation for more details.

SCOPE
-----

   Cluster 2005 welcomes paper and poster submissions from engineers and
   scientists in academia and industry describing original research work in

TECHNICAL PAPERS
----------------
Format for submission: Full paper drafts, not to exceed 25 double-spaced, numbered pages 
(including title, author affiliations, abstract, keywords, figures, tables and
bibliographic references) using 12 point font on 8.5x11-inch pages with 1-inch margins all around. A web based submission mechanisms will be activated on the conference web site two weeks before the submission deadline. Authors should submit a PostScript (level 2) or 
PDF file. Hard copy submissions can not be accepted.

POSTERS
-------
Format for submission: 1 page abstract in PDF including names of authors, their affiliation and a 200 word abstract sent as an e-mail attachment to the poster chair, Shawn Houston <poster%cluster2005.org@localhost>. Poster presentations will also be offered to the authors of technical papers that were not accepted for oral presentation but are recommended by the 
committee for this form of publication.
