*Call for Expression of Interest (EOI) *

*to Host IPDPS 202**8*



The IPDPS Steering Committee will consider EOI to host IPDPS 2028.
Following the usual IPDPS rotation of locations (twice in the US followed
by an international location), IPDPS 2028 event is planned to be held
outside the US. EOI must be from active researchers, not from conference
management entities. Proposers must have had previous IPDPS experience (for
example, participant in the meeting, volunteer at the meeting including
serving on the program committee, etc.). Selected EOI will be asked to
submit further details and will be advised in its preparation. EOI should
be brief (three to five pages) and should contain information on:

●     the site (local infrastructure, hotels to consider that can
accommodate IPDPS requirements and travel connections),

●     the organization team (the general chair(s) and key volunteers, their
experience in running major conferences, their prior experience with IPDPS,
their research experience in topics of interest to IPDPS). May also suggest
program chair candidates, but is not required to do so, and

●     key budget items (including room rates, meeting space cost, etc.).



The steering committee will also discuss and finalize a program chair(s)
for the meeting(s). EOI must be self-contained (no external links to shared
info.) and submitted in electronic form to steeringcom at ipdps.org. *Submission
deadline: March 15, 202**6.*



EOI may include, as appendices, brochures or other printed material
concerning the locale and conference facilities, if these are available.
IEEE will negotiate with the proposed hotel(s) directly. EOI will be
evaluated using the following criteria:

●     Economic viability

●     Academic reputation of key volunteers

●     Level of commitment

●     Transport and accessibility

●     Maintaining a balance between different locations

●     Experience of the organizers in hosting international conferences



IPDPS is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, in all of its
activities, and aims to recruit volunteers representative of the diversity
of the research community. For information - people, places, and programs -
