The theme of this year's meeting is "Innovating through e-Science" reflecting how the UK e-science programme has generated innovative solutions in both computing and application science. The goal of the meeting is to provide a forum in which information on e-Science projects from all disciplines can be communicated and where the capabilities being developed within projects can be demonstrated. AHM 2005 will begin on the evening of Monday 19th September with a programme of mini-symposia. The main conference programme will begin on Tuesday 20th September and end late afternoon on Thursday 22nd September. The conference will feature presentations by groups from throughout the UK who are active in e-Science projects, in addition to poster sessions, mini-workshop sessions, project demonstrations, and birds-of-a-feather sessions. The schedule will also include a number of invited Keynote speakers involved in leading Grid and e-Science activities. A buffet dinner will be provided during the poster session on Tuesday evening and a conference dinner is planned for the Wednesday evening. We hope that this schedule of activities will provide a stimulating and engaging environment. There are several options if you wish to participate in the All Hands Meeting, namely, v Presentation in a parallel session (25 mins) o These presentations will be grouped into parallel sessions. Every effort will be made to allow individuals to move between sessions. v Presentation in a mini-workshop (25 mins) o The mini-workshops are sessions organised by individuals to bring together a number of presenters for a particular theme. AHM 2005 will feature the following mini-workshops: § Portals and VREs. § UKLight the First Year: Applications and Research Using the New Optical R&D Network § Web Services Architecture and Dependability: an e-Science Perspective. § Knowledge Management: Priorities for the Way Forward. § Visualisation on the Grid: Technologies and Applications. § Data Integration in eScience: what does the Grid give us? § e-Science and Data Mining. § Making e-Science Usable. § Inter and Intra Authorisation in the Virtual Organisation. § Text Mining, e-Research and Grid-enabled Language Technology v Poster Presentation o There will be a poster session on Tuesday, where colleagues will have the opportunity to explain projects to the conference delegates. v Birds-of-a-Feather o The accommodation for the meeting will allow 5 parallel Bird-of-a-Feather sessions. Each of these possible options will require a proposal to be submitted for consideration by the Programme Committee. The proposal should be no more than 2 pages (including pictures) in either pdf or Word format, and accompanied by a plain text abstract of about 100 words. As the number of each type of presentation is constrained, there will be a full review process. There will be a proceedings for the conference, which will be provided in CD format with an ISBN number. Abstracts can be submitted any time from early February to 1st April.
