All presenters, including those in workshops, are required to attend and present in person. However, organizers may opt to hold workshops in a hybrid format that allows for remote viewing. Please note that SCA/HPCAsia 2026 will not provide the equipment or online meeting tools needed for hybrid formats?organizers must make their own arrangements.

SCA/HPCAsia 2026 is planning to provide a publication method. In past SCA and HPCAsia conferences, workshop papers were published in ACM-affiliated proceedings. However, each workshop organizer was responsible for ensuring a proper peer review process. Details will be provided to organizers after notification. SCA/HPCAsia will also offer access to a paper review management system (Linklings) if needed.
