BALTIMORE, MD -- Due to popular demand, the final deadline for submitting technical papers, tutorials and panels for SC2002 has been extended one week to Friday May 3. In addition, the SC2002 Education Program deadline has been extended to May 30 to give educators more time to form teams. The deadline for submitting research exhibit requests remains Friday, April 26, while the deadline for poster submissions is July 29. SC2002, the annual conference of high performance networking and computing, features the theme "From Terabytes to Insights," and includes seven days of technical programs, technological demonstrations and exhibits, and educational outreach. The conference convenes Nov. 16-22 at the Baltimore Convention Center. SC program submissions are now being accepted via the Web for panels, posters, technical papers (extended abstracts), and tutorials. The submissions pages can be accessed from the SC2002 Technical Program Web page: http://www.sc-conference.org/sc2002/program. Each technical paper submission must also identify the prize category for which it is to be considered, such as the Gordon Bell Award. SC2002 will bring together scientists, engineers, systems administrators, programmers, and managers to share ideas and glimpse the future of high performance networking and computing, data analysis and management, visualization, and computational modeling. The conference is sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Computer Society and by the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Computer Architecture.
