Introduction
With the rapid growth in computing and communications technology,
the past decade has witnessed a proliferation of powerful parallel and
distributed systems and an ever increasing demand for practice of high
performance computing and communications (HPCC). HPCC has moved into the
mainstream of computing and has become a key technology in determining
future research and development activities in many academic and
industrial branches, especially when the solution of large and complex
problems must cope with very tight timing schedules.
Among a series of highly successful International Conferences on
High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC), the HPCC 2017
conference is the 19th edition of a forum for engineers and scientists
in academia, industry, and government to address the resulting profound
challenges and to present and discuss their new ideas, research results,
applications and experience on all aspects of high performance
computing and communications. IEEE HPCC 2017 is in the process of
seeking sponsorship by IEEE, IEEE Computer Society, and IEEE Technical
Committee on Scalable Computing (TCSC).
