Call for Community Participation

The 17th Global Grid Forum - GGF17
May 10-12, 2006
Tokyo, Japan

GGF is comprised of a number of "communities of interest" who either
are users of grids in their domain or develop innovative approaches
to perceived roadblocks to the adoption of grids. The GGF17 Program
seeks to build new and strengthen existing communities of interest in
GGF.

The GGF17 Program will offer a series of 30-90 minute talks and
panels emphasizing the applications and operations of grids in
research and industrial contexts. It will also consist of half and
full-day research workshops and tutorials of standards-based
implementations of grid software.

While there are no formal publication requirements, publications in
the form of GGF Informational Documents, journal articles/special or
equivalent are encouraged and all session organizers are required to
submit materials (including slides) for inclusion on the GGF web
pages prior to the event. These program activities may run in
parallel with other GGF activities (such as standards sessions and
the GridWorld program tracks) but every attempt will be made in
scheduling to minimize unnecessary clashes.

Proposals are now being accepted for the GGF17 Program to be held May
10 - 12, 2006, in Tokyo, Japan. Only proposals submitted online prior to 24
March will be considered. To submit a proposal, visit:
http://www.ggf.org/gf/session_request/commreq.php.
Acceptance notices will be sent on or before 31 March.

programs can be viewed at:
