Overview

As volume of data and knowledge keeps increasing, new methods, modeling

paradigms, and structures

are supported to efficiently mount scalability requirements. In the last

few years, heterogeneous

distributed systems proliferate, ranging from simple networks of

workstations to highly complex

grid computing environments. Such computational paradigms have been

preferred due to their reduced

costs and inherent scalability, which pose many challenges to scalable

systems and applications

in terms of information access, storage and retrieval.

The fourth International Conference on Scalable Information Systems will

focus on a wide array of

scalability issues and investigate new approaches to tackle problems

arising from the ever-growing

size and complexity of information of all kinds.

Scope

Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not

currently under review by

another conference or journal, are solicited. Technical papers clearly

identifying how the specific

contributions fit to an overall working solution are particularly of

interest.

The Fourth International Conference on Scalable Information Systems will

focus on a wide array of scalability

issues and investigate new approaches to tackle problems arising from the

ever-growing size and complexity

of information of all kinds.

The conference invites original technical papers that were not previously

published and are not currently

under review for publication elsewhere. Topics include, but are not

limited to:

Scalable Parallel and Distributed Information Retrieval

Scalable Grid Information Systems

Scalable Peer-to-Peer Systems
