Scope
High performance computing is a key technology to solve large problems in science, engineering, and business by utilizing computing power which has been evolving to the future. HPCAsia, which is an international conference series on HPC technologies in Asia Pacific region, and was held in the past several times in several countries in Asia regional site to discuss the issues on high performance computing and to exchange information of research and development results. Following the success in 2018 and 2019, the International Conference on High Performance Computing in Asia-Pacific Region, or HPCAsia2020 is organized in order to exchange ideas, case studies, and research results related to all issues of high performance computing.

Paper Submission
Authors are invited to submit technical papers of at most 10 pages in PDF format including figures and references. Papers should be formatted in the ACM Proceedings Style (http://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template) and submitted at https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf+AD0-hpcasia2020
Submitted papers must be original work that has not appeared in and is not under consideration for another conference or a journal.

The review process is single-blind. Each paper will be assigned 4 reviewers. 1 months is allowed for reviews, and a face-to-face meeting among the track chairs will be held to determine the accepted papers. There will be no revision stage.

Proceedings
All accepted papers will be published by ACM, and included in ACM digital library if presented at the conference. Please contact the Program Chairs for any questions/clarifications.
