     SPAA 2007 Call for Papers

     19th ACM Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures

     San Diego, CA, USA
     June 9 - 11, 2007
     http://www.spaa-conference.org

     SPAA will be part of the FCRC multi-conference event.

========================================================================

SCOPE:
In a tradition started in 2001, SPAA defines "parallel" broadly to
encompass any computational system or model that can perform multiple
operations or tasks simultaneously. As a consequence, contributed papers
are sought in ALL areas of parallel algorithms and architectures and in
related fields including (but not limited to) game theory and
collaborative learning, the Internet and the World Wide Web, peer-to-peer
and wireless systems, multi-threaded and multi-core architectures, and
quantum and DNA computing.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Parallel and Distributed Algorithms    Parallel and Distributed Data
                                       Structures
Parallel Complexity Theory             Parallel Computing and Applications
Parallel and Distributed               The Internet and the World Wide Web
  Architectures
Game Theory                            Collaborative Learning
Instruction Level Parallelism and VLSI Multi-Core Architectures
Routing and Information Dissemination  Resource Management and Awareness
Hashing, Caching, and Scheduling       Graph and Network Theory
Peer-to-Peer Systems                   Mobile Ad-Hoc and Sensor Networks
Robustness and Security                Self-Stabilization
Compilers and Tools for Parallel       Quantum and DNA Computing
  Computing
Supercomputer Architecture and         Grid Computing
  Computing

More details can be found at http://www.spaa-conference.org.

========================================================================

CONFERENCE PRESENTATION:
Regular presentations will be allotted a 25-minute talk and up to 10 pages
in the proceedings. This format is intended for contributions reporting
original research, submitted exclusively to this conference. Brief
announcements will be allotted a 10-minute talk and a one-page abstract
(each marked as a brief announcement) in the proceedings. This format is a
forum for brief communications, which may be published later in other
conferences.

SUBMISSIONS:
Due to FCRC, the submission deadlines are unusually early this year:
   **December 18, 2006 for regular papers and
   **January 8, 2007 for brief announcements.
These are firm deadlines. No extensions will be granted.

Authors who are unable to submit electronically should contact the program
chair, Christian Scheideler, at scheideler@... to receive
instructions. Do not send electronic submissions to this email address.

NEW: This year there will be a Best Paper Award for regular papers.


PAPER SUBMISSION FORMAT:
The cover page should include
1. title,
2. authors and affiliation,
3. postal and email address of the contact author,
4. a brief abstract describing the content of the paper, and
5. an indication of whether this is a regular presentation or a brief
announcement.

If requested by the authors, an extended abstract that is not selected for
a regular presentation will also be considered for the SPAA brief
announcements. Such a request will not affect the consideration of the
paper for a regular presentation.

Submissions of regular presentations should include an introduction
understandable to a nonspecialist including motivation and previous work,
and a technical exposition directed to a specialist. It should not exceed
10 printed pages in 11-point type or larger (excluding the cover page and
the references). More details (such as figures and proofs) may be supplied
in a clearly marked appendix to be read at the discretion of the program
committee. at the discretion of the program committee.

A submission for the SPAA brief announcements should be no longer than 3
pages on letter-size paper using at least 11-point font.


NOTIFICATION:
Authors will be sent notification of acceptance or rejection by e-mail or
letter mailed on or before February 11. A camera-ready copy of each
accepted abstract must be prepared according to the ACM guidelines for
inclusion in the proceedings of the conference and must be received by
April 2, 2007.
