===========================================================

  International Workshop on High-Performance Big Data Computing (HPBDC)
                   http://web.cse.ohio-state.edu/~luxi/hpbdc2015

                               In conjunction with the 35th IEEE
  International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems (ICDCS 2015)

                 June 29th - July 2nd, 2015, Columbus, Ohio, USA

===========================================================

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------
International Workshop on High-Performance Big Data Computing (HPBDC), aims to
bring HPC and Big Data processing into a ‘convergent trajectory’. The workshop
provides a forum for scientists and engineers in academia and industry to
present their latest research findings in major and emerging topics for this
field.

HPBDC 2015 will be held in conjunction with the 35th International Conference
on Distributed Computing Systems (ICDCS 2015), Columbus, Ohio, USA, June 29th -
July 2nd, 2015.

HPBDC 2015 welcomes original submissions in a range of areas, including but not
limited to:

* High-performance Big Data analytics frameworks, programming models, and
  tools

* Performance optimizations for Big Data systems and applications with HPC
  technologies

* High-performance in-memory computing technologies and abstractions

* Performance modeling and evaluation for emerging Big Data Computing
  technologies

* Big Data on HPC, Cloud, and Grid computing infrastructures

* Fault tolerance, reliability and availability for high-performance Big Data
  Computing

* Green Big Data Computing

* Scientific Computing with Big Data

Papers should present original research. As Big Data spans many disciplines,
papers should provide sufficient background material to make them accessible to
the broader community.


SUBMISSION INFORMATION
----------------------------------------
All submissions should follow the IEEE standard 8.5” x 11” two-column format.
Paper submissions should not exceed 8 pages.

All papers will be carefully reviewed by at least three reviewers.  Papers
should not be submitted in parallel to any other conference or journal.

The proceedings of this workshop will be published together with the
proceedings of other ICDCS 2015 workshops by the IEEE Computer Society Press.
At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register as a
participant of the workshop and present the paper at the workshop, in order to
have the paper published in the proceedings.
