ACM Symposium on High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing

Welcome to HPDC'12

The organizing committee is delighted to invite you to HPDC'12, the 21st International ACM Symposium on High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing, to be held in Delft, the Netherlands, which is a historic, picturesque city that is less than one hour away from Amsterdam-Schiphol airport.

HPDC is the premier annual conference on the design, the implementation, the evaluation, and the use of parallel and distributed systems for high-end computing. HPDC is sponsored by SIGARCH, the Special Interest Group on Computer Architecture of the Association for Computing Machinery.

HPDC'12 will be held at Delft University of Technology, with the main conference taking place on June 20-22 (Wednesday to Friday 1 PM), and with affiliated workshops on June 18-19 (Monday and Tuesday).
