*** TYPES OF POSTERS ***
Participants submitting proceedings-published posters are required to
submit a short paper (2 pages) describing the poster content, the
research supporting it, and the relevance and importance to the
cluster, cloud, and grid computing community. If accepted, this short
paper will be published in the proceedings of the conference.

Participants submitting web-published posters are required to submit a
short 1-page extended abstract. These abstracts will not be included
in the conference proceedings.

Both proceedings-published and web-published posters will be displayed
during the conference. We encourage accepted authors of demos to
prepare a poster to accompany their demo. All accepted posters
(including posters prepared for demos) will be posted on the
conference website.

*** DISPLAY POSTER SIZE ***
The recommended poster size is A1 (594mm by 841mm, portrait).

*** SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ***
Submitted manuscripts should be structured as technical papers and may
not exceed 1 (web published) or 2 (proceedings published) letter size
(8.5 x 11) pages including figures, tables and references using the
IEEE format for conference proceedings.

*** IMPORTANT DATES ***
May 15, 2015 (extended) Posters Submission Deadline
May 9, 2015 Papers Acceptance Notification

*** STUDENT TRAVEL AWARDS ***
Several travel awards are sponsored by the National Science Foundation
for students enrolled in American institutions who participates in the
Student Mentoring Program
(http://www.mcs.anl.gov/ieeecluster2015/student-program/). Students
with accepted posters or papers must also apply to and participate in
the Student Mentoring Program to be eligible for the travel award. The
deadlines for the Student Mentoring Program application are at
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/ieeecluster2015/author-information/important-dates/.
Notice of travel awards will be made prior to the conference. The
travel awards will be distributed post-conference in the form of
reimbursements against actual travel, registration, and accommodation
expenses submitted by the student. The travel award will be contingent
on the participating of the awarded student in the Student Mentoring
Program at Cluster 2015.
