PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The 2013 International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation (HPCS 2013) is to address, explore and exchange information on the state-of-the-art in high performance and large scale computing systems, their use in modeling and simulation, their design, performance and use, and their impact. The Conference will be held on July 1 - 5, 2013 in Helsinki, Finland. The conference will include a session for poster presentations.

HPCS 2013 is soliciting poster papers and posters, both technical and industry based, on all HPCS related topics for the posters session. The posters session is an effective and interactive forum for presenting works addressing preliminary results, innovative ideas, work in progress, late-breaking results, tools, platforms and products, and other works, possibly not suitable for a formal full paper. Posters will be held in a special session where presenters will demonstrate their work directly to conference attendees, and will remain in place during the remainder of the Conference.

All HPCS related topics.
