International Workshop on Networking, Architecture, and Storages 1-3 August 2006 Shenyang, China Proceedings

The last decade or so has seen rapid research and developments in computer technology, particularly the advent and proliferation of Internet and wireless networks, that has given way to a clear convergence of previously divert fields such as computer networking, architecture and storages. As a result, architectural designs are increasingly made more network-aware, if not network-centric; more classic architecture ideas are being adopted to network devices and protocols and vice versa; data grids and high-speed networks are making data ever more omnipresent and indeed the "life-blood" of computing and the main asset of any organization. This workshop brings together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to discuss cutting edge research on networking (wireline and wireless), high-performance computer architecture, and parallel and distributed data storage technologies. By discussing ongoing research, IWNAS 2006 exposes participants to the most recent developments in these interdisciplinary areas.IEEE Computer Society Staff is the author of 'International Workshop on Networking, Architecture, and Storages 1-3 August 2006 Shenyang, China Proceedings', published 2006 under ISBN 9780769526515 and ISBN 0769526519.
