Frontiers of High Performance Computing and Networking - Ispa 2007 Workshops: Ispa 2007 International Workshops, Ssdsn, Upwn, Wish, Sgc, Pardmcom, Hipcomb, and Ist-awsn, Niagara Falls, Canada, August, 28-september 1, 2007, Proce

This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of seven international workshops held in conjunction with the 5th International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing and Applications, ISPA 2007, held in Niagara Falls, Canada in August 2007. The 53 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from many high quality submissions. The workshops contribute to enlarging the spectrum of the more general topics treated in the ISPA 2007 main conference.
