> =================================================
> Call for Papers
> High Performance Distributed Computing Conference
> Managing Data Quality in Collaborative Science Workshop
> June 21st, 2010 , Chicago, Illinois, USA
> Website: http://hercules.infotech.monash.edu.au/mdqcs/Home.html
>
> OVERVIEW
>
> Advances in grid computing have encouraged the proliferation of  
> automated and semi-automated data driven scientific applications.  
> These applications in turn result in a vast array of data products.  
> These data products are often disseminated to other scientific  
> projects or domains consumers who rely upon this as a vital resource  
> in their experimental process. Consumers of data products often face  
> difficult decision in selecting appropriate data sets for a given  
> experiment that fit within the quality control measures established  
> by the researcher.  In many cases, there is no information  
> pertaining to quality available to consumers to make the selection.
>
> TOPICS
>
> We cordially invite authors to submit their work on data quality  
> management for scientific applications. We are interested in  
> creating a workshop program that covers issues of data quality for  
> scientific workflow systems, curated database systems, data  
> streaming systems and hybrid systems. Submission from both providers  
> of grid infrastructure (computer scientists) and consumers of grid  
> infrastructure (domain scientists) are encouraged.  The workshop  
> will provide a venue for producers and consumers to discuss  
> challenges in data quality management and determine future direction  
> of research in this relatively new area of grid computing.
>
> Topics of interest to the workshop include:
>
> *  Use cases of data quality from different application domains
> *  Data quality model for scientific application
> *  Data integration and data cleansing
> *  Cleansing and aggregation of streaming data
> *  Tracking workflow execution state
> *  Fault tolerance in scientific workflow
> *  Data quality in curated database
>
> Please contact workshop chairs for further information on other  
> possible topics of interest.

> Submission Guidelines
> =====================
>
> Submit a full paper in English.  Short papers representing leading  
> edge advancements in data quality will be limited to 6 pages, more  
> mature applications of data quality will be limited to 12 pages.
>
> Paper should be prepared following the ACM publication guideline, http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates 
> .  All papers will be reviewed by at least two reviewers. Submission  
> of a paper should be regarded as a commitment that, if the paper is  
> accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend the  
> conference. Accepted papers will be published in an ACM publication.
