Submission of Papers:
Papers reporting original and unpublished research results on above and related HPC topics are solicited. 
Please submit an electronic copy of your full manuscript (not to exceed 15 double-spaced pages
 including figures, tables, and references).  Please clearly indicate the corresponding author. 
 Include up to 6 keywords from the above list and an abstract of no more than
300 words.  Papers must be submitted - in .pdf (preferred) or word.doc format via web at the following
conference website: http://www.engr.udayton.edu/faculty/wsmari/hpc06.  More detailed submission
procedures will be available on this website.  If accepted, the final camera-ready manuscript will follow
the ECMS 2006 format, which will be made available to all authors. 
 
Consistent with standard practice, each submitted paper will receive a minimum of three reviews.  Papers
will be selected based on their originality, timeliness, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. 
Initial selection will be based on full papers.  Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the
authors to register and present the paper, if accepted.  All accepted papers in the conference are required
to be presented and will be included in the conference proceedings which will be published by ECMS. 
 
If you have any questions about paper submission, please contact conference Program Chair:  Waleed W.
Smari, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Dayton, 300 College Park, Dayton,
OH 45469-0226, USA, Voice: (937) 229-2795, Fax: (937) 229-4529, Email:
