* 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://ssl.linklings.net/conferences/HPCAsia/
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 an online 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.
