-------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS HPCC-07 The 2007 International Conference on High Performance Computing and Communications September 26 - 28, Houston, Texas, USA, http://www.tlc2.uh.edu/hpcc07/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- With the rapid growth in computing and communications technology, the past decade has witnessed a proliferation of powerful parallel and distributed systems and an ever increasing demand for practice of high performance computing and communications (HPCC). HPCC has moved into the mainstream of computing and has become a key technology in determining future research and development activities in many academic and industrial branches, especially when the solution of large and complex problems must cope with very tight timing schedules. The HPCC-07 conference provides a forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to address the resulting profound challenges and to present and discuss their new ideas, research results, applications and experience on all aspects of high performance computing and communications. With this third event in this new conference series, HPCC-07 plans to continue the success of the first two HPCC conferences, held 2005 in Sorrento, Italy, and HPCC-06 held in Munich, Germany, each with over 300 submitted papers and more than 100 participants.
