PDP 2024 aims to provide a premier forum for researchers and
professionals to present their original research findings, fostering
knowledge exchange and the exploration of new ideas at the highest
technical level. We invite submissions on a wide range of topics
related to Parallel, Distributed, and Network-Based Processing,
including but not limited to:

o ALGORITHMS: resource-aware and power-efficient algorithms;
real-time and fault-tolerant distributed/parallel algorithms;
graph and network algorithms
o APPLICATIONS: numerical and scientific applications with
multi-level parallelism; applications with computations over
irregular domains; models and methods to enhance functional/non-functional
application characteristics
o DATA-INTENSIVE PROCESSING: large-scale data processing;
distributed databases and archives; large-scale data management;
scalable and next-generation storage systems; I/O performance
tuning, benchmarking, and middleware; FAIR/open data systems
o DISTRIBUTED & NETWORK-BASED COMPUTING: cluster, grid,
fog/edge, mobile and cloud systems; FaaS and service-oriented
processing; stochastic and approximate computing; cost, security,
energy, and other non-functional requirements models and frameworks
o PARALLEL COMPUTING: accelerator-based systems inc. GPU,
FPGA, neuromorphic, and post-CMOS devices; embedded parallel
systems; dependability, survivability, and fault-tolerance; methodologies,
benchmarking/metrics, and performance analysis and tools
o PROGRAMMING MODELS & TOOLS: programming languages, compilers,
middleware, and OS; libraries, runtime, and systems software;
notations; performance prediction and analysis; simulation and
modelling of parallel/distributed systems
o SYSTEMS & ARCHITECTURES: high data throughput and streaming
architectures; memory organization; service-oriented architectures;
heterogeneous and hybrid systems; resource management; post-CMOS
architectures inc. quantum, neuromorphic, and others

= Submission of Papers =
==========================

Prospective authors should submit a full paper not exceeding
8 pages in the IEEE Conference proceedings format (IEEEtran,
double-column, 10pt) (https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html)
to the conference main track or one of the Special Sessions/Workshops
through the EasyChair submission system (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pdp2024)
indicating the Main Track or the chosen Special Session/Workshop.

Double-blind review: the paper should not contain authors' names
and affiliations; in the reference list, references to the authors'
work entries should be substituted with the string "omitted for
blind review".

Registration: At least one author of an accepted paper must register
for the conference and present in person their paper at the conference
venue in Dublin.

Publication: all accepted papers will be included in the same
proceedings volume published by Conference Publishing Services
(https://ieeecps.org). The Final Paper Preparation and Submission
Instructions will be announced after the notification of acceptance.
For an accepted paper to be included in the proceedings, the
author has to present in person the paper at the conference.
The Proceedings will be submitted for indexing to IEEE Xplore,
CDSL and other relevant outlets.
