timely work, the quality of this program would not be as high nor would the process have run so smoothly. Ialsowishtothanktheothersupportingcastmemberswhohelpedinputtingtogether thisprogram,includingthosewhoorganizedthekeynotes,tutorials,workshops,awards, poster session, industrial track session, and those who performed the administrative functions that are essential to the success of this conference. The work of Sushil K. Prasad in putting together the conference proceedings is also acknowledged, as well as the support provided by Mathieu Jan and Sebastien ´ Monnet, PhD students at IRISA, in maintaining the CyberChair online paper submission and evaluation software. Last, but certainly not least, I express heartfelt thanks to our General Co-chairs, Viktor Prasanna and Uday Shukla, and to the Vice-General Chair, David A. Bader, for all their useful advice. The preparation of this conference was unfortunately marked by a very sad and unexpectedevent:thesuddendemiseofDr.UdayShukla,whowasastrongsupporterof HiPC over the past ten years. He passed away on July 20, 2004 after a very brief illness. Dr. Shukla had been involved in organizing HiPC since the beginning. In addition to his encouragement in organizing HiPC, Dr. Shukla was a strong supporter of research activitiesincomputerscienceandinformationtechnologyinIndia.Wewillmissafriend of HiPC.
