Parallel and grid computing are solutions to the increasing need for computing power. High level languages offer a high degree of abstraction which ease the development of complex systems. Moreover, being based on formal semantics, it is possible to certify the correctness of critical parts of the applications. Algorithmic skeletons, parallel extensions of functional languages such as Haskell and ML, parallel logic and constraint programming, parallel execution of declarative programs such as SQL queries, etc. have produced methods and tools that improve the price/performance ratio of parallel software, and broaden the range of target applications. The PAPP workshop focuses on practical aspects of high-level parallel programming: design, implementation and optimization of high-level programming languages and tools (performance predictors working on high-level parallel/grid source code, visualisations of abstract behaviour, automatic hotspot detectors, high-level GRID resource managers, compilers, automatic generators, etc.), applications in all fields of computational science, benchmarks and experiments. Research on high-level grid programming is particularly relevant. The PAPP workshop is aimed both at researchers involved in the development of high level approaches for parallel and grid computing and computational science researchers who are potential users of these languages and tools. TOPICS We welcome submission of original, unpublished papers in English on topics including: * high-level models (CGM, BSP, MPM, LogP, etc.) and tools for parallel and grid computing * high-level parallel language design, implementation and optimisation * functional, logic, constraint programming for parallel, distributed and grid computing systems * algorithmic skeletons, patterns and high-level parallel libraries * generative (e.g. template-based) programming with algorithmic skeletons, patterns and high-level parallel libraries * applications in all fields of high-performance computing (using high-level tools) * benchmarks and experiments using such languages and tools PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers in English presenting original research. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers will go through a rigorous reviewing process. Each paper will be reviewed by at least three referees. The accepted papers will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, as part of the ICCS proceedings. Submission must be done through the ICCS website: http://www.iccs-meeting.org/iccs2006/papers/upload.php We invite you to submit a full paper of 8 pages formatted according to the rules of LNCS, describing new and original results, no later than December 2, 2005. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. An early email to Anne.Benoit at ens-lyon.fr with your intention to submit a paper would be greatly appreciated (especially if you have doubts about the relevance of your paper). Accepted papers should be presented at the workshop and extended and revised versions will be published in a special issue of Parallel and Distributed Computing Practices, provided revisions suggested by the referees are made. IMPORTANT DATES December 2, 2005 Full paper due January 31, 2006 Referee reports and notification February 10, 2006 Camera-ready paper due May 2006 Journal version due June 2006 Referee reports July-October 2006 Revision of papers, final notification November 2006 Final paper due PROGRAM COMMITTEE Marco Aldinucci (CNR/Univ. of Pisa, Italy) Olav Beckmann (Imperial College London, UK) Anne Benoit (ENS Lyon, France) Alexandros Gerbessiotis (NJIT, USA) Stephen Gilmore (Univ. of Edinburgh, UK) Clemens Grelck (Univ. of Luebeck, Germany) Christoph Herrmann (Univ. of Passau, Germany) Zhenjiang Hu (Univ. of Tokyo, Japan) Frédéric Loulergue (Univ.
