*******************************************************************************

  PPoPP, CGO, HPCA, and CC are conducted as co-located virtual conferences
  for the year 2021. Attendees of any conference can access the contents
  of all other co-located conferences.
  (PPoPP registration site:
https://ppopp21.sigplan.org/attending/registration)

Scope:
  PPoPP is the premier forum for leading work on all aspects of parallel
  programming, including theoretical foundations, techniques, languages,
  compilers, runtime systems, tools, and practical experience. In the
context
  of the symposium, “parallel programming” encompasses work on
  concurrent and parallel systems (multicore, multi-threaded, heterogeneous,
  clustered, and distributed systems; grids; data centers; clouds; and large
  scale machines). Given the rise of parallel architectures in the consumer
  market (desktops, laptops, and mobile devices) and data centers, PPoPP
  is particularly interested in work that addresses new parallel workloads
  and issues that arise out of extreme-scale applications or cloud
platforms,
  as well as techniques and tools that improve the productivity of parallel
  programming or work towards improved synergy with such emerging
  architectures.

Workshops:
* Programming Models and Applications for Multicores and Manycores (PMAM)
   (https://www.cs.otago.ac.nz/pmam2021/)
* Benchmarking in the Datacenter (BID): Expanding to the Cloud
   (https://parallel.computer)
* Workshop on Principles of Memory Hierarchy Optimization (PMHO)
