SBAC-PAD 2018 - Call for Posters

SBAC-PAD is an international symposium, started in 1987, which has
continuously presented an overview of new developments, applications,
and trends in parallel and distributed computing technologies.
SBAC-PAD is open for faculty members, researchers, specialists and
graduate students around the world. In this edition, the symposium
will be held at the Ecole Normale Superieure of Lyon, in France. Known
