Welcome to HiPC 2026

33rd edition of the IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing

For over three decades, the IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing (HiPC) has been a premier global forum for advances in parallel and distributed computing. Now in its 33rd edition, HiPC has played a uniquely transformative role in the Indian context—serving as a vital bridge between Indian academia, national laboratories, start-ups, and the IT industry, while connecting them to the international research community. For researchers and students across India and Asia, HiPC has provided a globally visible platform to present breakthrough work, forge enduring collaborations, and help shape the region’s leadership in advanced computing. With proceedings published in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library, the conference has consistently upheld the highest scholarly standards while strengthening the broader Asian HPC ecosystem.

HiPC’s stature has been further reinforced by distinguished keynote speakers over the years—pioneers of supercomputing, architects of transformative systems, leaders of major industrial research labs, and visionaries in AI and emerging technologies—whose insights have influenced research and innovation across India, Asia, and the world. As computing enters a new era, HiPC is rebranding around five forward-looking thematic areas:

  • High Performance Computing Systems and Applications: Advances in scalable algorithms, architectures, system software, and exascale applications that power modern science and engineering.
  • Artificial Intelligence Systems and Applications: Explores AI/ML for system design and optimization, as well as scalable infrastructure and hardware for training and deploying intelligent models.
  • Quantum Computing Systems and Applications: Focuses on quantum and hybrid quantum–classical algorithms, programming environments, and architectures for next-generation computation.
  • Edge Computing Systems and Applications: Addresses distributed intelligence, sustainable edge AI, cloud–edge convergence, and secure, communication-efficient learning at scale.
  • Hardware Systems, Accelerators, and Emerging Technologies: Focuses on heterogeneous architectures, post-Moore innovations, specialized accelerators, and energy-efficient designs that underpin future high-performance platforms.

Together, these themes position HiPC at the convergence of HPC, AI, quantum, edge, and advanced hardware—ensuring that the conference continues to lead, serve, and inspire the Indian, Asian, and global computing communities.

IEEE Conduct and Safety Statement

IEEE believes that science, technology, and engineering are fundamental human activities, for which openness, international collaboration, and the free flow of talent and ideas are essential. Its meetings, conferences, and other events seek to enable engaging, thought provoking conversations that support IEEE’s core mission of advancing technology for humanity. Accordingly, IEEE is committed to providing a safe, productive, and welcoming environment to all participants, including staff and vendors, at IEEE-related events.

IEEE has no tolerance for discrimination, harassment, or bullying in any form at IEEE-related events. All participants have the right to pursue shared interests without harassment or discrimination in an environment that supports diversity and inclusion.

Participants are expected to adhere to these principles and respect the rights of others. IEEE seeks to provide a secure environment at its events. Participants should report any behavior inconsistent with the principles outlined here, to on site staff, security or venue personnel, or to  [email protected].

IEEE Computer Society Open Conference Statement

Expanding participation in computing is central to the goals of the IEEE Computer Society and all of its conferences. The IEEE Computer Society is firmly committed to broad participation in all sponsored activities, including but not limited to, technical communities, steering committees, conference organizations, standards committees, and ad hoc committees that welcome the entire global community. IEEE’s mission to foster technological innovation and excellence to benefit humanity requires the talents and perspectives of people with many disciplinary backgrounds.

All individuals are entitled to participate in any IEEE Computer Society activity free of discrimination and harassment.
