Location

Guangzhou, China

Submission Deadline

May 15, 2014

Part of the 9th International Conference on P2P, Parallel, Grid, Cloud and Internet Computing – 3PGCIC

AIMS & SCOPE

The resolution of complex problems often requires using advanced approximate algorithms and huge computational resources to find accurate solutions in reasonable time. We look for high quality publications proposing soft computing techniques designed for large parallel systems as Grid or Cluster computing. Additionally, works proposing novel soft computing/metaheuristic algorithms applied to solve complex problems in the context of Grid and Cluster computing are of interest too. Therefore, the topics covered by this track include (but are not limited to) the following ones:

Soft computing techniques for real-world problems

Soft computing tools and frameworks for cluster and Grid computing

Competitive parallel algorithms

Cooperative parallel algorithms

Massively parallel algorithms

Parallel metaheuristics

Parallel evolutionary algorithms

Performance measures for Grid and Cluster computing

Reliable algorithms on uncertain environments

Parallel algorithms on GPGPU and Clusters of GPGPUs

Test benchmarks

Peer to peer algorithms

Volunteer computing

Ubiquitous computing

Cloud computing

Grid computing

Parallel optimization frameworks

Metaheuristics for scheduling

Complex and real-world problems
