*** SCOPE ***
Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that present original
unpublished research in all areas of parallel and distributed
processing, including the development of experimental or commercial
systems. Work focusing on emerging technologies and interdisciplinary
work covering multiple IPDPS areas are especially welcome.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Parallel and distributed algorithms;
* Applications of parallel and distributed computing;
* Parallel and distributed architectures;
* Parallel and distributed software.

Papers that cross the boundaries of the four traditional tracks of
IPDPS (Algorithms, Applications, Architecture and Software) are
encouraged and can be submitted to a newly established
multidisciplinary track. During submission of multidisciplinary
papers, authors should indicate their subject areas that can come from
any track.

*** BEST PAPERS AWARDS ***

The program committee will nominate papers for recognition in several
categories including the four conference topic areas as well as best
multidisciplinary paper and will consider other paper attributes that
merit recognition from the conference. The five top best papers will
be selected for presentation and the others will receive honorable
mention in the conference program.

*** WHAT/WHERE TO SUBMIT ***

Abstracts must be submitted by October 18th; submitted abstracts may
not exceed 500 words. Manuscripts must be submitted by October 23rd;
submitted manuscripts may not exceed ten (10) single-spaced
double-column pages using 10-point size font on 8.5x11 inch pages
(IEEE conference style), including figures, tables, and references.
The submitted manuscripts should include author names and
affiliations. Style templates are available on
http://www.ipdps.org/ipdps2017/2017_call_for_papers.html

Files should be submitted by following the instructions at the
EasyChair portal available at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ipdps17.

*** REVIEW OF MANUSCRIPTS ***

All submitted manuscripts will be reviewed. Submissions will be judged
on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance,
potential impact, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance
to the conference scope. Submitted papers should NOT have appeared in
or be under consideration for another conference, workshop or journal.
There will be a one week review feedback and author response period
from November 28th to December 5th. Questions may be sent to
