1ST INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON WORLD WIDE WORKFLOW GRID (WWWFG) 2007 @ GRID ASIA 2007 SINGAPORE 1st Call for Participation (released in Feb 2007) The 1st International Workshop on World Wide Work Flow Grid (1stWWWFG) at GridAsia@Singapore, Biopolis, Singapore. June 5-7, 2007. http://www.apbionet.org/wwwfg/ The 1st International Workshop on World Wide Work Flow Grid (1st WWWFG) will be held at the Biopolis in Singapore on June 5-7, 2007 during GridAsia@Singapore, a festival of events on Grid Computing. The 1st WWWFG is the first workshop in the region focused on the triple convergence of Grid Computing with Workflow Integration systems and Semantic Web technologies. This unique workshop aims to bring together key players in these areas and to provide unique opportunities that might lay the foundation for the next wave of killer applications supported by Grid Technologies. Oral Presentations in all areas related to any one, or a combination of, the three areas are invited. Proceedings for publication are being negotiated. Highlights of the Workshop: TRACK 1: Workflow and Grid Integration Systems: Killer Applications in the making. * This track focuses on a survey of all key workflow integration systems and their convergence with the grid infrastructure and the semantic web. TRACK 2: Knowledge Discovery and the Semantic Web: Prelude to a World Wide WorkFlow Grid * This track focuses on key technologies crucial to realization of Semantic Web and their connection to Workflow Integration and Grid Computing. Throughout the workshop the Life Science domain will be used mainly as an exemplar of the triple convergence Grid, Semantic Web and Workflows. Other areas of deployment and challenge fields are also welcome. Keynote and other invited speakers Keynote and other invited speakers include: Carole Goble, University of Manchester UK (myGrid) Robert Stevens, University of Manchester, UK Yike Guo, Imperial College, University of London (Inforsense) Tom Oinn, European Bioinformatics Institute (Taverna) Akihiko Konagaya,RIKEN GSC, Japan (The Ba) Ross D King, University of Wales, Aberystwyth, UK (Expo) Lim Teck Sin, KOOPrime Pte Ltd, Singapore (KOOP) Bertil Schmidt, University of New South Wales UNSWAsia (Quascade) Lane Shen, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (Goalnet) Arun Krishnan, Inst for Advd Biosciences, Keio Univ, Japan (Wildfire/GEL) Miao Chunyan, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (B-GST) Simon See, Sun Microsystems Asia Pacific Science and Technology Centre Tim Littlejohn, IBM Australia (eBioinformatics workflows) Panel Discussions: Panel discussions will be organized to identify ways in which the triple convergence of Workflow Systems, Ontologies and the Semantic Web with Grid Computing can be we can accelerated. Exhibitors and Sponsors are welcome. Please contact the CoChairs below. Tutorials for training in Taverna, Web Ontology Language (OWL) and KOOP workflow system will be conducted.
