2nd Call for Participation
--------------------------
The 1st International Workshop on World Wide Work Flow Grid
(1st WWWFG) will be held at the Biopolis in Singapore on
June 5-7, 2007 during GridAsia@Singapore, a festival of events
on Grid Computing.

The 1st WWWFG is the first workshop in the region focused on
the triple convergence of Grid Computing with Workflow
Integration systems and Semantic Web technologies. This unique
workshop aims to bring together key players in these areas and
to provide unique opportunities that might lay the foundation
for the next wave of killer applications supported by
Grid Technologies.

*********************************************************
Since the first call for participations, the response
has been tremendous. A new Track, Track 3 has been added.
*********************************************************

Oral Presentations in all areas related to any one,
or a combination of, the three areas are still being invited.

Proceedings for publication are being negotiated.

Highlights of the Workshop:
---------------------------
TRACK 1: Workflow and Grid Integration Systems:
         Killer Applications in the making.

* This track focuses on a survey of all key workflow integration
  systems and their convergence with the grid infrastructure and
  semantic technologies.

TRACK 2: Knowledge Discovery and the Semantic Web:
         Prelude to a World Wide WorkFlow Grid

* This track focuses on key technologies crucial to realization
  of Semantic Web and their connection to Workflow Integration and
  Grid Computing.

TRACK 3: Workflow engineering: Constructing and running large-scale
         software infrastructures based on scientific workflows

* This track focuses on how workflows affect large-scale projects in
  industry and academia an examines issues that arise at the development
  stage, in project management and across enterprise operations.

Throughout the workshop the Life Science domain will be used mainly
as an exemplar of the triple convergence Grid, Semantic Web and
Workflows. Other areas of deployment and challenge fields are also welcome.
