The 16th annual IEEE International Conference on High Performance
Computing
(HiPC 2009) will be held in Cochin, India, during December 16-19,
2009. It
will serve as a forum to present the current work by researchers from
around
the world, and act as a venue to provide stimulating discussions and
highlight high performance computing (HPC) activities in Asia.
The conference has a history of attracting participation from reputed
researchers from all over the world.

The 15th HiPC Conference held in Bangalore, India, in December 2008,
had 46
contributed papers chosen from 317 submissions from 27 countries. The
conference included technical paper sessions, keynotes from leading HPC
researchers, a poster paper session, an exhibition, an industry
session with
presentations from leading HPC companies, a HPC user community meeting,
tutorials on hot topics in computing and networking, and several
workshops
focused on emerging areas. The 14th HiPC Conference, held in Goa,
India, in
December 2007, had 52 contributed papers that were selected from over
253
submissions from 31 countries and approximately 300 participants
attended
the meeting, and 13th HiPC Conference held in Bangalore, India, in
December
2006, had 52 contributed papers that were selected from over 335
submissions
from 40 countries. The HiPC attendance is approximately 300 with a
good mix
of participants from India and the rest of the world. Further
information
about HiPC 2009 and the HiPC series of meetings is available on the
conference website at http://www.hipc.org.

HiPC 2009 will focus on the design and analysis of high performance
computing
and networking systems and their scientific, engineering, and commercial
applications. In addition to technical sessions consisting of
contributed
papers, the conference will include invited presentations, a poster
session,
tutorials, and vendor presentations.

following the link
http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=6874. Manuscripts must be received by
May 15,
2009. Manuscripts should demonstrate current research in any area of
high performance
computing. All manuscripts will be reviewed and will be judged on
correctness,
originality, technical strength, significance, quality of
presentation, and interest
and relevance to the conference attendees. There will be a short
rebuttal phase for
the authors before the final decisions on the submissions are made.

Submitted papers must represent original unpublished research that is
not currently
under review for any other conference or journal. Papers not following
these guidelines
will be rejected without review and further action may be taken,
including (but not
limited to) notifications sent to the heads of the institutions of the
authors and
