CALL FOR PARTICIPATION - PDSW-DISCS '18

The 3rd Joint International Workshop on Parallel Data Storage and Data
Intensive Scalable Computing Systems (PDSW-DISCS'18)

Monday, November 12, 2018 9:00am - 5:30pm

SC'18 Workshop - Dallas, TX

### WORKSHOP ABSTRACT ###

The 3rd Joint International Workshop on Parallel Data Storage and Data
Intensive Scalable Computing Systems (PDSW-DISCS’18) will be hosted at
SC18: The International Conference for High Performance Computing,
Networking, Storage and Analysis. This one day joint workshop combines two
overlapping communities to promote and stimulate researchers’ interactions
to address some of the most critical challenges for scientific data
storage, management, devices, and processing infrastructure for both
traditional compute intensive simulations and data-intensive high
performance computing solutions.
