A number of problems in science, industry and commerce, which require 
broad international cooperation, may be addressed by using sophisticated 
equipment and top-level expertise. Therefore, the development and 
dissemination of techniques and technologies that allow virtualized, 
remote and shared access to industrial or scientific instruments are 
essential for the progress of society. The possibility of using 
scientific or industrial equipment independently of their physical 
location helps towards equality of opportunity for and unification of 
communities, and subsequently provides new momentum for industry, 
science, and business.
The current edition of the Workshop goes beyond exploitation of remote 
instrumentation on the Grid. First of all, it focuses on new Remote 
Instrumentation (RI) aspects related to middleware architecture, 
high-speed networking, wireless Grid for acquisition devices and sensor 
networks, QoS provisioning for real-time control, measurement 
instrumentation and methodology. Additionally, it will provide knowledge 
about automation of mechanisms oriented to accompanying processes that 
are usually performed by a human. Another important point of this 
workshop is focusing on the future trends concerning RI systems’ 
development and actions related to standardization of remote 
instrumentation mechanisms.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

*	Virtualization technologies in remote instrumentation
*	Security issues for the remote control of devices
*	Architectures and use cases involving remote control of devices
*	Grid middleware extensions for remote control of instruments and devices
*	Interoperability of information systems for the remote control of devices
*	Building of communities around remote control of devices
*	Distributed synchronization and calibration
*	Present and future trends in RIS development
*	Standards and standardization processes for RIS systems

Tele-working environments and e-learning:
*	Tele-working environments and tele-presence
*	Tele-services, tele-diagnosis and tele-robotics
*	Tele-communities and their social impact
*	Collaborative work in virtual engineering environments
*	Mixed-Reality environments for education and training
*	Demands in education and training, e-learning, b-learning, m-learning 
and ODL
*	Innovative organizational and educational concepts for remote engineering

Distributed data management:
*	Management of large scientific data sets
*	Networking solutions in support of scientific data transport
*	Distributed data acquisition in sensor networks
*	Data management in Wireless Sensor Networks
*	Metadata and advanced information systems for instruments and sensors

Grid integration of experimental and computational resources:
*	Workflow management for large-scale experiments
*	Visualization techniques
*	Grid integration of experimental and computational processes
*	Human computer interfaces, usability, reusability, accessibility
*	Deployment of large scale applications for online engineering
*	Supporting interactive applications in the grid environment


PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINE
===========================
The Workshop will be structured in technical sessions, some of which 
will be organized by leading researchers in the field, and will 
accommodate both invited and regular papers, selected on an open-call 
basis. INGRID 2010 allows also additional possibilities to be actively 
engaged in the conference program:
1) Special sessions – proposals for special sessions are welcome.Please 
provide the session description (1-1.5 page) including a draft session 
program. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least three members 
of the International Program Committee.
2) Extended abstracts – in alternative to full paper submission authors 
can provide an extended abstract (1-2 pages). The abstracts positively 
approved give a chance to make a presentation at the conference. A 
subsequent full paper will be reviewed independently, with a chance to 
add the paper to the post-workshop proceedings.
