  Call for Papers
  ---------------
  LaSCoG'09
  5th Workshop on Large Scale Computations on Grids
  Wroclaw, Poland,
  September 13-16, 2009
  http://lascog09.info.uvt.ro/

  The workshop will be held in conjunction with the Seventh
  International Conference on Parallel Processing and Applied Mathematics
  (PPAM 2009, http://ppam.pl).

  Aim:
  ---
  The paradigm for execution of large-scale computations,
  whether they originate as scientific or engineering applications,
  or for supporting large data-intensive calculations, is to utilize
  multiple computers at sites distributed across the Internet.
  In particular, computational grids are collections of distributed,
  possibly heterogeneous resources which can be used as ensembles to
  execute large-scale applications.
  While the vision of the global computational grid is extremely appealing,
  there remains a lot of work on all levels to achieve it.
  In this context the LaSCoG workshop is envisioned as a forum
  to promote exchange of ideas and results aimed at addressing
  complex issues that arise in developing large-scale computations
  on grids and running applications on them.
