The 2008 Access Grid Retreat will take place at Simon Fraser University in
Vancouver, Canada, May 28-30.
The Access Grid Retreat is an annual event which brings together users,
developers, and researchers in a show of recent activity and future planning
related to internet collaboration. The Retreat Program typically includes
presentations suitable for people at all levels of technical understanding,
from first time users to developers to researchers in collaborative technology
and streaming media. More information about the current and past retreats is
available at www.accessgrid.org/events<http://www.accessgrid.org/events>. For
more information about the Access Grid, please visit

research, including but not limited to the following:

Speakers are requested to submit abstracts of no more than 1000 words, not
including figures or references; PDF format is preferred. Speakers should
define their interest in submitting an individual presentation (including
title), or a panel discussion (including title and proposed speakers) .
Abstracts should be written so as to be self-contained and to provide the
technical substance required for the program committee to evaluate the
presenter's contribution, and to provide sufficient detail for the program.
Presentations including live demonstrations, for example introducing a new
shared application or service, should include the hardware and network
requirements necessary for the demonstration.
Abstracts must be submitted by Friday, April 11, 2008. Please submit to
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.
Speakers will be selected by Friday, April 18, 2008. Confirmations will be sent
via email.

available shortly.
