Considered a premier European conference site, the hotel tower provides spectacular views of gardens and the blue Aegean Sea alongside its modern conference facilities. Situated on the Mediterranean Sea at the crossroads of two continents, Rodos combines the worldliness of Europe with the mystery of the Orient in an atmosphere that allows visitors to discover ancient Greek cities, a medieval town with its own castle, charming small villages, and sun drenched beaches. Rodos is also one of the most developed islands in the Mediterranean, providing every holiday amenity, including a yachting harbor, entertaining night life, and casino and sports facilities. The Rodos airport has direct flights to major international cities and other Aegean islands as well as many daily flights from Athens International Airport. With 300 sunny days per year, the island holds the Greek record for sunshine, and its remarkably rich legacy in archaeological treasures and developed tourism infrastructure make Rodos a very special place to gather for IPDPS 2006. Plan to arrive early and stay late!

Westrom, Future Scientists & Engineers of America, USA IPDPS 2006 WORKSHOPS Workshops at IPDPS are held on the first and last day of the symposium. Next year in Greece that will be Tuesday, April 25th and Saturday, April 29th. Workshops are an opportunity to explore special topics, and running a workshop in association with IPDPS offers many advantages. For more information on organizing a workshop, contact Workshops Chair Alan Sussman (als@cs.umd.edu). Workshops already planned for 2006 are listed on the IPDPS Web at www.ipdps.org. IPDPS 2006 COMMERCIAL PARTICIPATION There are three exciting forums available for commercial participants to showcase their technologies at IPDPS 2006: (1) Give a presentation in a special Commercial Track, which includes publication of a technical article in the proceedings of the symposium. (2) Offer an evening Commercial Tutorial to provide orientation and training to symposium participants interested in using and/or learning more about your technology. (3) Participate in three days of Commercial Exhibits by having a booth where your company can promote awareness about its recent technological advances in a "walk-up-and-talk" setting with a diverse audience. Participants in one or more of the above events will be designated as Commercial Sponsors and will have their company logo linked on the IPDPS home page. For more detailed information and to reserve your spot, contact one of the Commercial Co-chairs - John K. Antonio (antonio@ou.edu) or Theodoros Komninos (komninos@cti.gr) - as early as possible but no later than January 1, 2006. IPDPS BIRDS-OF-A-FEATHER These are informal sessions in which a group of researchers can gather for discussions on a topic of mutual interest. BOF space will be available early in the evening and a typical BOF session will last one to two hours. We'll provide the space, you provide the topic and gather the people. Please reserve space in advance by contacting the General Vice Chair Charles Weems (weems@cs.umass.edu). Reservations should be made by January 16, 2006. BOF sessions will be advertised in advance of the meeting on the IPDPS web site and can be linked to a BOF announcement web page. The goal of the BOF sessions is to encourage new collaborations and research directions, to inspire educational initiatives, and to nurture the development of new workshop proposals and other initiatives and interactions within our community. ================================== ==================================
