Call for Research Papers and Posters

Research paper submission is open!

Prospective authors are invited to submit extended abstracts, full papers or poster presentations on conference topics.

Original papers not being submitted to journals or other conferences will be considered. All submitted papers will be reviewed by the program committee according to their originality, significance, fundamental insights, potential long-term contribution, correctness, presentation and relevance. We encourage authors to present their work on practical studies and experiments, critique of existing works, emerging issues, and novel ideas under development. Abstracts, full papers and poster presentations must be submitted electronically after registration as a conference participant. All of the authors of each presented paper must be registered as participants of the conference for the paper to be included in the proceedings.

Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Proceedings will be issued on CD and will be given to participants during registration.

Call for Workshops / Birds-of-Feather (BoFs)

Workshops are interactive courses focusing on key topics of HPC, Clouds and storage systems.

We invite like-minded HPC-UA attendees get together to discuss selected HPC topics in an informal atmosphere. Each BoF session has its own topic and is led by one or more persons. HPC-UA is an ideal marketplace to reach your special audience!

Call for Industrial Section

During conference the industrial exhibition will be held presenting software and hardware products ready for industrial and commercial use.

Each exhibition place will be equipped with one table, 1-2 chairs and 220V electric power supply with standard Euro-socket. Also it would be possible to stick a poster and/or make multimedia presentation. Exhibitors must bring their own computer and office equipment needed for the demonstration.

For authors of accepted papers an exhibition place is available free of charge. For private companies and vendors we have special exhibition package. Please contact us for more details.
