ICCS Workshop on Urgent Computing

http://www.iccs-meeting.org/

 Objectives
 ==========
 Urgent computing is a new area of computer science addressing 
 algorithms, methods and tools enabling prioritized and immediate 
 access to large compute and storage systems for emergency computations 
 required for clever decision making in critical situations like floods, 
 earthquakes, wildfires, terroristic attacks, epidemics, pandemics, 
 instabilities in financial markets etc. Urgent computing is still in 
 development and the main aim of this workshop is to assess its current 
 status and indentify the most important challenges.
 We invite users and developers of such applications, scientists working 
 on methods and tools for urgent computing, resources providers, and 
 decision makers to submit papers addressing topics related to urgent
computing.

 Topics
 ======
 - applications requiring emergency computations
 - algorithms and methods of immediate access to large scale compute and 
   storage
 - tools, environment and middleware for urgent computing
 - data placement, resource management and optimization for urgent 
   computing
 - solutions enabling collaboration in urgent computing
 - SLA and policies in urgent situations
 - methods implementing urgent computing on a voluntary user-by-user 
   basis
