Organized At
IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid
(CCGrid 2007)
May 14-17, 2007, Rio De Janeiro

Scope
Data sharing and automatic consistency management provides ease of programming for parallel and distributed applications in cluster and grid environments. A lot of research work has been done in these research fields, especially in Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems. But the Grid environment comes with new challenges, e.g. scalability, fault tolerance, and network latency.
The DSC 2007 workshop continues the tradition of its successful six ancestor workshops on Distributed Shared Memory with a broader scope. The workshop is organized at the CCGrid 2007 symposium and will serve as a major forum to present and share the latest research results of the work by international researchers, developers, and users. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
data sharing and distributed shared memory systems on clusters and grids
synchronization and consistency in high-performance networks
applications using shared memory systems
fault tolerance and fall-back strategies
consistencies models and protocols
performance and debugging tools
distributed memory management
hardware and compiler support
disconnected shared storage
multi-core system clusters
OpenMP deployment
memory models
benchmarking
scalability
We also encourage authors to present novel ideas, critique of existing work, and application examples, which demonstrate how DSC technology could be effectively deployed. We also welcome practical work which applies DSC in novel and interesting ways.

All papers selected for this workshop are peer-reviewed. Workshop papers will be distributed to all CCGrid participants on a
CD published by IEEE Computer Society. The papers will also be available electronically in the IEEE digital library.
