THE 20TH INTERNATIONAL ACM SYMPOSIUM ON HIGH-PERFORMANCE PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED or f COMPUTING SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA, JUNE 8-11, 2011 Papers Call Call (PART OF THE ACM FEDERATED COMPUTING RESEARCH CONFERENCE) General Chair http://www.hpdc.org/2011/ Barney Maccabe, Oak Ridge National Laboratory Program Chair The ACM International Symposium on High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing (HPDC) is the Douglas Thain, University of Notre Dame premier conference for presenting the latest research on the design, implementation, evaluation, and use Workshops Chair Mike Lewis, Binghamton University of parallel and distributed systems for high end computing. The 20th installment of HPDC will take place in Local Arrangements Chair San Jose, California, in the heart of Silicon Valley. This year, HPDC is affiliated with the ACM Federated Nicholas Wright, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Computing Research Conference, consisting of fifteen leading ACM conferences all in one week. HPDC will Publicity Chairs be held on June 9-11 (Thursday through Saturday) with affiliated workshops on June 8th (Wednesday). Alexandru Iosup, Delft University of Technology John Lange, University of Pittsburgh Submissions are welcomed on all forms of high performance parallel and distributed computing, including Ioan Raicu, Illinois Institute of Technology Yong Zhao, Univ. of Electronic Science & Technology of China but not limited to clusters, clouds, grids, utility computing, data-intensive computing, multicore and parallel Sponsorship Chair computing. All papers will be reviewed by a distinguished program committee, with a strong preference for Matei Ripeanu, University of British Columbia rigorous results obtained in operational parallel and distributed systems. All papers will be evaluated for Student Activities Chairs correctness, originality, potential impact, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance to the Huaiming Song, Illinois Institute of Technology conference. Hui Jin, Illinois Institute of Technology Steering Committee In addition to traditional technical papers, we also invite experience papers. Such papers should present Henri Bal, Vrije Universiteit Andrew A. Chien, UC San Diego and SDSC operational details of a production high end system or application, and draw out conclusions gained from Peter Dinda, Northwestern University operating the system or application. The evaluation of experience papers will place a greater weight on the Ian Foster, Univ. of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory real-world impact of the system and the value of conclusions to future system designs. Dennis Gannon, Microsoft Salim Hariri, University of Arizona Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Dieter Kranzlmueller, Ludwig-Maximilians-Univ. Muenchen Satoshi Matsuoka, Tokyo Institute of Technology • Applications of parallel and distributed computing. Manish Parashar, Rutgers University • Systems, networks, and architectures for high end computing. Karsten Schwan, Georgia Tech • Parallel and multicore issues and opportunities. Jon Weissman, University of Minnesota (Chair) Program Committee • Virtualization of machines, networks, and storage.

Peter Dinda, Northwestern University Scott Emrich, University of Notre Dame Authors are invited to submit technical papers of at most 12 pages in PDF format, including all figures and Dick Epema, Delft University of Technology references. Papers should be formatted in the ACM Proceedings Style and submitted via the conference Gilles Fedak, INRIA Renato Figuierdo, University of Florida web site. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings, and will be incorporated into the ACM Ian Foster, Univ. of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory Digital Library. Gabriele Garzoglio, Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory Rong Ge, Marquette University Papers must be self-contained and provide the technical substance required for the program committee to Sebastien Goasguen, Clemson University evaluate the paper's contribution. Papers should thoughtfully address all related work, particularly work Kartik Gopalan, Binghamton University Dean Hildebrand, IBM Almaden presented at previous HPDC events. Submitted papers must be original work that has not appeared in and is Adriana Iamnitchi, University of South Florida not under consideration for another conference or journal.
