Off to Hawaii for HPDC and GGF11

I am off to Hawaii tomorrow for HPDC-13 and GGF11 (yes, I know… my job sucks but somebody has to do it :-). I am one of the co-organisers of the “Building Service Based Grids” workshop which is taking place on the 6th (provisional program). Do come along if you are around. The papers presented are very interesting and we have two good invited speakers as well.

Jim is going to present our latest work on the WS-GAF Registry Service. He has some cool ideas about the presentation. If all goes well, we are hoping to swap service implementations during the talk without affecting the consumers of the services. It should be great fun.

Jim also promised he’d take me diving. So, you all know now that if I don’t make it back, he’d be the one responsible 🙂 He has started threatening me already.
