Call for papers - Emerging Cyberinfrastructure Capabilities and 
Opportunities 

American Institute of Chemical Engineers 2008 Annual Meeting 
November 16-21, 2008, Philadelphia, PA

Sponsored by Computing and Systems Technology Division (CAST) 
Area 10(e): Information Technology

Call for papers closes 5/11/2008

The session concentrates on chemical engineering and the 
emerging ‘scientific enterprise’ where science, computation and 
information technology are integrated. It is about the build out of IT 
infrastructure,i.e. the cyber infrastructure, and the innovative 
application of that infrastructure as a necessary means of doing research 
and development in frontier technologies. Cyber infrastructure provides 
the vehicle for external and internal exchange and contribution and plays 
a vital role in the business of conducting research. Papers about local, 
regional, national and international activities or case studies in 
companies, universities, institutes, foundations, and government are all 
welcome. A series of in-depth presentations will be followed by a 
roundtable discussion to further explore this topic with everyone in 
attendance.
