*** Call for Workshop proposals ***

Parallel and distributed computing is a central topic in science, 
engineering and society. ICPP, the International Conference on Parallel 
Processing, provides a forum for engineers and scientists in academia, 
industry and government to exchange ideas and present results of 
on-going research in most state-of-the-art in all aspects of parallel 
and distributed computing.

The Workshops Committee of ICPP 2018 welcomes proposals for half or full 
day workshops affiliated with the conference, on topics of interest to 
ICPP 2018 attendees. The purpose of these workshops is to create new 
opportunities for presenting novel ideas in particular topics of 
interest, creating an specialized forum that may open new opportunities 
of collaboration and discussion.

The 47th ICPP will be held in Eugene, OR, USA during August 13-16, 2018. 
Workshops will be held on Monday August 13th. More information of ICPP 
2018 can be found at http://oaciss.uoregon.edu/icpp18/index.php

Important Dates:
Workshop proposal submissions: February 19, 2018
Workshop proposal notifications: February 23, 2018


Workshop proposal guidelines:
1. The proposals should include the following information:
2. Title/Acronym for the workshop.
3. Short biography of the Workshop organizers (5-10 lines).
4. Abstract on the workshop theme.

6. A description of the target audience.
7. Expected length (half-day or full-day).
