The International Conference on High Performance Computing and
Communications (HPCC), 2017, is the 18th edition of a highly
successful forum of discussion for engineers and scientists in
academia, industry, and the government. The forum aims to provide a
venue to discuss profound challenges and to present and discuss new
ideas, research results, applications, and experience on all aspects
of high performance computing and communications.

HPCC has been continuously sponsored by IEEE since its inception. We
expect such sponsorship for 2017 as well, and are awaiting the final
approval from IEEE.

We are soliciting paper submissions in the following topic areas:

1. Parallel and distributed system architectures
2. Languages and compilers for high performance computing
3. Parallel and distributed software technologies
4. Parallel and distributed algorithms
5. Resource management for parallel and distributed systems
6. Embedded systems
7. Peer-to-peer computing
8. Grid and cluster computing
9. Web services and Internet computing
10. Cloud computing
11. Utility computing
12. Performance evaluation and measurement
13. Tools and environments for software development
14. Distributed systems and applications
15. High-performance scientific and engineering computing
16. Database applications and data mining
17. Biological/molecular computing
18. Bioinformatics
19. Collaborative and cooperative environments
20. Mobile computing and wireless communications
21. Computer Networks
22. Telecommunications
23. Pervasive/ubiquitous computing and intelligence
24. Autonomic computing, reliability, and fault-tolerance
25. Trust, security, and privacy
26. Energy-aware computing

Submissions must include an abstract, keywords, and the e-mail address
of the corresponding author. The submission may not exceed 8 pages for
main conference, including tables and figures, in IEEE CS format. The
template files for LATEX or WORD can be downloaded from
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html.
All paper submissions must represent original and unpublished work.
Each submission will be peer reviewed by at least three program
committee members. The authors commit that if the submission is
accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the conference
and present the work. Submit your paper(s) in PDF file at the
submission site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hpcc17

Accepted and presented papers will be included in the IEEE Conference
Proceedings published by IEEE CS CPS (EI Index), which will be
uploaded to IEEE Xplorer. At least one of the authors of an accepted
paper must have full registration and present the work at the
conference, otherwise the paper may be removed from the digital
libraries of IEEE CS after the conference.
