A Workshop on Scheduling for Parallel Computing (SPC) shall be held in conjunction with the 9th International Conference on Parallel Processing and Applied Mathematics PPAM 2011 in Torun, Poland, on September 11-14, 2011.

The SPC workshop is intended to be a forum for exchanging ideas in the field of scheduling parallel and distributed applications primarily, but also scheduling in general. Suggested topics include (but are not limited to):

* cluster, grid, heterogeneous platforms scheduling
* scheduling for large scale distributed data processing
* new scheduling models
* divisible load theory
* load balancing
* scheduling workload measuring and modeling
* scheduling and computer performance
* algorithms for scheduling problems
* deterministic scheduling theory
* scheduling in general.

PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
The rules of PPAM conference apply. In particular:

* Authors should submit papers before April 30, 2011.
* Papers are not to exceed 10 pages (LNCS style).
* Submit papers as .pdf to EasyChair, look for SPC track.
* Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit, relevance to the workshop topics, originality, correctness and quality of presentation.
* Papers presented at the workshop will be published after the conference in the Springer-Verlag LNCS series. Abstracts of the accepted papers will be available during the conference as a brochure.
* Final camera-ready versions of the accepted papers will be required by October 31, 2011.
