[Erik Saule]

(Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP)

The deadline for submission of workshop proposals has been extended to August 15th.

====================================================================
CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS to be colocated with IPDPS 2019

33rd IEEE International Parallel & Distributed Processing Symposium

May 20-24, 2019

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
====================================================================

ABOUT IPDPS WORKSHOPS

Held on the first and last day of the conference, IPDPS workshops provide an extended forum that allows the IPDPS community an opportunity to fully explore special topics and to present work that is more preliminary and cutting-edge or that has more practical content than the more mature research presented in the main symposium. Each workshop has its own requirements and schedule for submissions. Workshop papers’ submission dates typically fall after the notification date for the main symposium papers. Proceedings of the workshops are distributed at the conference and are submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library after the conference.
