The CoreGRID Network of Excellence (NoE) project began in September
2004. Two months later, in November 2004, the first CoreGRID
Integra tion Workshop was held within the framework of the
prestigious international Dagstuhl seminars. CoreGRID aims at
strengthening and advancing long-term research, knowledge transfer
and integration in the area of Grid and Peer-to- Peer technologies.
CoreGRID is a Network of Excellence - a new type of project within
the European 6th Framework Programme, to ensure progressive
evolution and durable integration of the European Grid research
community. To achieve this objective, CoreGRID brings together a
critical mass of we- established researchers and doctoral students
from forty-two institutions that have constructed an ambitious
joint programme of activities. Although excellence is a goal to
which CoreGRID is committed, durable integration is our main
concern. It means that CoreGRID has to carry out activ ities to
improve the effectiveness of European research in Grid by
coordinating and adapting the participants' activities in Grid
research, to share resources such as Grid testbeds, to encourage
exchange of research staff and students, and to ensure close
collaboration and wide dissemination of its results to the
international community. Organising CoreGRID Integration Workshops
is one of the activities that aims at identifying and promoting
durable collaboration between partners involved in the network."
Euro-Par Conference Series Euro-Par is an annual series of
international conferences dedicated to the p- motion and
advancement of all aspectsof parallelcomputing. The major themes
can be divided into the broad categories of hardware, software,
algorithms and applications for parallel computing. The objective
of Euro-Par is to provide a forum within which to promote the
development of parallel computing both as an industrial technique
and an academic discipline, extending the frontier of both the
state of the art and the state of the practice. This is
particularly - portant at a time when parallel computing is
undergoing strong and sustained development and experiencing real
industrial take-up. The main audience for, and participants at,
Euro-Par are seen as researchers in academic departments,
government laboratories and industrial organizations. Euro-Par's
objective is to be the primary choice of such professionals for the
presentation of new - sults in their speci?c areas. Euro-Par also
targets applications demonstrating the e?ectiveness of parallelism.
This year's Euro-Par conference was the tenth in the conference
series. The previous Euro-Par conferences took place in Sto- holm,
Lyon, Passau, Southampton, Toulouse, Munich, Manchester, Paderborn
and Klagenfurt. Next year the conference will take place in Lisbon.
Euro-Par has a permanent Web site hosting the aims, the
organization structure details as well as all the conference

?cient parallel applications. PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) and
MPI (Message Passing Interface) are the most frequently used tools
for programming message passing applications. This volume includes
the selected contributions presented at the 10th - ropean PVM/MPI
Users' Group Meeting (Euro PVM/MPI 2003), which was held in Venice,
Italy, September 29-October 2, 2003. The conference was jointly
organized by the Department of Computer Science of the Ca' Foscari
University of Venice, Italy and the Information Science and
Technologies Institute of the National Research Council (ISTI-CNR),
Pisa, Italy. TheconferencewaspreviouslyheldinLinz, Austria(2002),
Santorini, Greece (2001), Balatonfured, ] Hungary (2000),
Barcelona, Spain (1999), Liverpool, UK (1998), and Krakow, Poland
(1997). The ?rst three conferences were devoted to PVM and were
held in Munich, Germany (1996), Lyon, France (1995), and Rome,
Italy (1994). The conference has become a forum for users and
developers of PVM, MPI, and other message passing environments.
Interactions between these groups has proved to be very useful for
developing new ideas in parallel computing, and for applying some
of those already existent to new practical ?elds. The main topics
of the meeting were evaluation and performance of PVM and MPI, ext-
sions, implementations and improvements of PVM and MPI, parallel
algorithms using the message passing paradigm, and parallel
applications in science and engineering. In addition, the topics of
the conference were extended to include Grid computing, in order to
re?ect the importance of this area for the hi- performance
computing community."
