  The 15th annual IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing (HiPC 2008) will be held in Bangalore, India, during December 17-20, 2008. 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 14th HiPC Conference held in Goa, India, in December 2007, had 53 contributed papers chosen from 253 submissions from 31 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 13th HiPC Conference held in Bangalore, India, in December 2006, had 52 contributed papers that were selected from over 335 submissions from 40 countries, and the 12th HiPC Conference held in Goa, India, in December 2005, had 50 contributed papers that were selected from over 362 submissions from 30 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 2008 and the HiPC series of meetings is available on the conference website at  http://www.hipc.org.

HiPC 2008 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.

  Manuscript Guidelines
  Submitted manuscripts should be structured as technical papers and may not exceed 14 letter size (8.5 x 11) pages including figures, tables and references. Formatting requirements are 12-point font size, single column, single spaced or higher, with margins of at least 1 inch on each of the four sides. Submissions not conforming to these guidelines may be returned without review. Authors should submit the manuscript in PDF format and make sure that the file will print on a printer that uses letter size (8.5 x 11) paper. The official language of the meeting is English.

Manuscript submission will start on April 5, 2008. Manuscript submission procedures will then be available over the Web at http://www.hipc.org. Electronic submissions must be in the form of a readable PDF file. Manuscripts must be received by May 12, 2008. 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.

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 sponsors of the conference. Submissions received after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately structured may also not be considered. Authors may contact the Program Chair at the address below for further information or clarification. Notification of review decisions will be mailed by July 14, 2008. Camera-ready papers are due by August 18, 2008. The proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag, Lecture Notes in Computer Science, and will be available at the conference.
