Editorial message: special track on distributed systems and grid computing

ABSTRACT

It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the 21st annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing, Special Track on Distributed Systems and Grid Computing (DSGC) in Dijon, France. The objective of the DSGC track is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers and practitioners in academia, industry and research institutes to share technical ideas, experiences and results and to present their latest findings in any aspects of Parallel, Distributed, and Grid Computing. The topics of the track emphasize the design, architecture, and software of distributed systems and grid computing environments with their scientific and engineering applications.
