ICPP 2019 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 2019 welcomes proposals for half or full 
day workshops affiliated with the conference, on topics of interest to 
ICPP 2019 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 48th ICPP will be held in Kyoto, Japan during August 5-8, 2019. 
Workshops will be held on Monday August 5th.


Important Dates:

Workshop proposal submissions: December 9, 2018

Workshop proposal notifications: December 14, 2018


Workshop proposal guidelines:

The proposals should include the following information:
     1. Title/Acronym for the workshop.
     2. Short biography of the Workshop organizers (5-10 lines).
     3. Abstract on the workshop theme.
     4. Discussion of the topic's relevance and workshop goals.
     5. A description of the target audience.
     6. Expected length (half-day or full-day).
     7. Publicity plan for attracting submissions.
     8. If applicable, details on previous instantiations of the workshop.

All workshop proposals will be evaluated by the ICPP Workshops 
Committee. The decision will be made based on the overall quality of the

highly recommended that workshop proposals with similar scopes only 
submit a joint proposal.
