Scope

HPC Asia is an international conference series held every 18 months on an Asia-Pacific regional site. It is one of the most important international events that bring together HPC researchers, developers, and users throughout the world to exchange ideas, case studies, research results and future development issues in the field of High Performance Computing, Grid and e-Science, and Network Applications. The 9th conference, HPC Asia 2007, will be held at LOTTE Hotel Seoul in Seoul, Korea on September 9-12, 2007.

The conference offers an excellent opportunity to learn from the latest achievement from Asia-Pacific countries. By sharing experiences from a variety of HPC field this conference provides the potential HPC developers and users with invaluable insights for developing HPC technology and applications. The conference will consist of keynotes/plenary lectures, research paper & poster presentation, tutorials, exhibition booths from research centers and vendors, and demonstrations from leading international HPC, Grid and e-Science projects.

Authors are invited to submit manuscript of original unpublished research work in all area of high performance computing. This conference will focus on (but not limited to) the following;

• System Architecture and Models for HPC
• System Software for HPC
• Algorithms and Applications for HPC
• Computational Science & Scientific Computation (BT, NT, ST, ET, etc.)
• Grid Computing, its Applications and Business Models
• e-Science and/or cyber-infrastructure
• High Performance Network and Networked Applications

Technical Paper Submission

Authors are invited to submit papers of no more than 8 pages of double column text using single spaced 10 point size type on 8.5x11 inches papers, as per IEEE 8.5x11 manuscript guidelines
(see http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm).

Authors should submit a Postscript (level 2) file that will print on a Postscript printer using 8.5 x 11 inch size (letter size) paper. Paper submission instruction will be placed on the conference official web site.
