SCOPE AND TOPICS
----------------

The ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering
(ICPE) is the leading international forum for presenting and
discussing novel ideas, innovations, trends, and experiences in the
field of performance engineering.

Performance, energy efficiency, and reliability are becoming central
to the acceptance and sustainability of modern computing systems.
Digitalization brings computing technology closer to people and
manages most aspects of their life. In turn, human interaction
increasingly shapes the behavior of computing systems. As a result,
our systems become more complex and, therefore, more difficult to
engineer and understand. We need to be able to manage this complexity
so that our systems remain reliable, trustable, and performant.

ICPE brings together researchers and practitioners to report on open
problems, state-of-the-art solutions, and in-progress research in
performance engineering of software and systems - targeting
performance and associated quality attributes such as efficiency and
reliability in all phases of the computing system lifecycle, from
specification and development to run time and maintenance.

ICPE deals with performance and associated quality attributes across
all application domains. We encourage contributions that help extend
the state-of-the-art in particular, but not exclusively, in the
following areas:

- Measurement and Empirical Evaluation
- Modeling
- Design and Development Processes
- Performance Testing
- Managing Systems at Runtime
- Platform-Related Optimizations
- Benchmarking

ICPE caters to a wide range of submission types with eight distinct
submission tracks:

- Research track for regular research papers on the conference topics
- Industry track for contributions connecting to the industry
- Journal-first track for contributions from recent journal publications (new)
- Artifact track for sharing software and data artifacts
- Emerging research track for discussing preliminary or vision contributions
- Poster and demo track for short interactive contributions
- Tutorials track for presentations by leading scientists and practitioners
- Workshops track for specific aspects of performance engineering
- Data challenge track for addressing the challenges presented
  by a performance dataset

The conference proceedings are published in ACM Digital Library.
