	     SECOND CALL for papers (deadline 30th Jan.)

Euro-Par is an annual series of international conferences dedicated to
the   promotion   and  advancement   of   all   aspects  of   parallel
computing. The major  themes can be divided into  the broad categories
of  hardware,  software,  algorithms  and  applications  for  parallel
computing.  The objective  of Euro-Par  is to  provide a  forum within
which  to promote  the development  of parallel  computing both  as an
industrial  technique  and   an  academic  discipline,  extending  the
frontier of both the state of the art and the state of the practice.

Euro-Par  2004  covers traditional  research  fields,  that is  topics
already covered in previous Euro-Par conferences, as well as new ones,
such  as  High performance  bioinformatics,  or  topics that  appeared
recently in the conference, as the Demo session.

The list of topics covered by Euro-Par 2004 sessions is the following:

* Support tools and environments
* Performance evaluation
* Scheduling and load balancing
* Compilers for high performance
* Parallel and distributed databases, data mining and knowledge 
  discovery
* Grid and cluster computing
* Applications on high performance computers
* Parallel computer architecture and ILP
* Distributed systems and algorithms
* Parallel programming models, methods and languages
* Numerical algorithms
* High performance multimedia
* Theory and algorithms for parallel computation
* Routing and communication in interconnection networks
* Mobile computing
* Integrated problem solving environments
* High performance bioinformatics
* Peer-to-peer and web computing
* Demo session

Full  papers and  research notes  can  be submitted.   Full papers  (8
pages, LNCS  style papers)  should present original  research results.
Research notes  (4 pages, LNCS  style papers) may  concern preliminary
results  as well  as ongoing,  original research  activities.  Special
submission  rules hold  for the  Demo session.   Both full  papers and
research notes  must be  submitted to a  specific topic.   Authors may
specify a  secondary topic,  if the case.   Papers submission  will be
performed  electronically  using the  conference  WEB site.   Accepted
paper  formats include both  PDF and  Postscript. The  accepted papers
must be  supplied in both  PS or PDF  and source. All  accepted papers
will  be  included  in  the conference  proceedings.   The  conference
proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series.
