Registration is now open for the 3rd EGEE User Forum, to be held in Clermont-Ferrand, France on 11-14 February 2008.

Call for abstracts

Submitted abstracts should follow online guidelines and be submitted online. The deadline for abstract submission is 3 December 2007.

Abstracts should address one of three general themes:

• scientific results produced with the help of grid technology, with emphasis on how grid technology enhanced the result,
• functional requirements for application porting and deployment,
• existing or prospective grid services, explaining the purpose, typical use cases and interactions with other grid services.

Tutorials and Trainings

Those interested in organizing a tutorial or meeting in conjunction with the User Forum, should contact the Program and Local Organization Committee chairs. Tutorials and project meetings can be performed on Monday morning, Thursday afternoon or on Friday. Rooms for meetings and tutorials in parallel to the User Forum can not be delivered.

The User Forum provides an important opportunity for members of the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE user community and wider grid community to present their work, discuss grid technologies and learn about advances in middleware and application services.
