Announcement of ADASS 2010 BOSTON

We are pleased to announce the 20th annual conference on Astronomical
Data Analysis Software and Systems (ADASS).  The conference will be
held in Boston, MA, USA, at the Seaport Hotel and World Trade center
from  7-11 November 2010, hosted by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for
Astrophysics. Registration will open in May or June.

The ADASS conference is held each year at a different hosting
astronomical institution. The conference provides a forum for
scientists and programmers concerned with algorithms, software
and software systems employed in the acquisition, reduction,
analysis, and dissemination of astronomical data.  The program
includes invited talks, contributed papers, display sessions,
tutorials, and computer demonstrations, as well as special
interest ("Birds of a Feather" or BOF) meetings.  These
activities aim to encourage communication between software
specialists, scientists, and also to stimulate further development
of astronomical software and systems.  We encourage you to
participate in this exciting conference by submitting an oral or
poster abstract, a demonstration, or a BoF proposal.

Key topics for this year's conference include but are not
limited to:

* Education and Public Outreach
* Scientific Computing
* Large Observatory Challenges
* Cross Catalog Matching
* Solar Astronomy
* Grid and Grid Virtualization

Details on the submission process can be found on the Conference
