Call for Participation
2nd WORKSHOP ON LINUX CLUSTERS FOR SUPER COMPUTING

Last date for registration: 15 october!

============================================================

-- 2nd WORKSHOP ON LINUX CLUSTERS FOR SUPER COMPUTING
-- Clusters for applications and GRID solutions.

25-26 October 2001
Hosted by
National Supercomputer Centre (NSC)
Linköping University
Sweden

============================================================

The fast development of the processing power of high-end PCs and workstations
together with the availability of open source operative systems such as Linux
have made it possible to build very cost effective parallel computers. With
 the addition of high band width networks with low latency PC-clusters are
 challenging conventional commercially available parallel computers.
 PC-clusters can in many cases yield orders of magnitude in prize
 performance.

Assembling a PC-cluster is, however, a non-trivial task due to the fast
 moving PC and workstation market as well as the rapid development of Linux
 and available tools for clustered computing. The aim of the workshop is to
 gather together people with experience of clusters and provide participants
 with an overview of state of the art PC-clusters. The workshop will address
 the hardware and software issues encountered during design as well as some
 of the emerging application areas in which PC-cluster have been deployed.

We intend to cover the following topics:

o Distributed computing and GRID technologies
o Update on the latest hardware developments
o Tools for managing and using clusters
o Scalability issues, benchmarking and tuning
o Batch systems and job scheduling strategies
o Key application areas

We are very pleased to announce that Dr. MARK BAKER, University of
 Portsmouth, will give the workshop keynote address. Mark's current research
 is focused on the development of tools and services for PC-based distributed
 systems. Mark has written a number of articles and papers on Cluster and
 Grid Computing and is co-chair of the conference IEEE Cluster 2001.

Furthermore, BEN SEGAL, CERN Information Technology Division, will give a
 talk on GRID technologies.  Ben has been responsible for the buildup of many
 high speed networks at CERN.  Until recently Ben managed the section
 Technologies for Experiments.  Ben is now concentrating on managing the Data
 Management work package in the European DataGrid project.

The complete list of speakers and programme will be available at
http://www.nsc.liu.se/lcsc/.

If you wish to present your own PC-cluster project or give a talk on a topic
related to clustered computing please contact Niclas Andersson
<nican@nsc.liu.se>.
