Call For Papers

The CUG 2008 conference, "Crossing the Boundaries", will bring together people who define and drive the future of high performance and technical computing. Sharing your experience and expertise are keys to the success of this conference.

The CUG Special Interest Group structure is undergoing a change, but the Technical Categories suggested for papers and presentations at the CUG Technical Meeting are unchanged. If you do not see a topic which matches your particular subject, please suggest an addition or modification to this list. We expect to have the new SIG structure in place in time to review the abstract submissions early in 2008.

We encourage you to submit an abstract of a paper in one of the following technical categories:

Applications & Programming Environment Systems Support

In-house & 3rd Party Software

System Operations

Facilities and Site Prep

If you are not from an active CUG member site, please read Who May Attend CUG conferences before submitting your abstract.

Prior to submitting your Abstract, please review the Instructions for Authors. These instructions describe how to prepare your paper for publication and how to prepare PowerPoint presentations using a template we provide. Note: The abstract requires only a short/concise descriptive paragraph; the actual paper is not due for several more months (see table below). An example of a typical abstract can be found at (sample abstract).

Once you are familiar with the instructions, use the Abstract Submission Form to submit your abstract.
