Call for Papers
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SBAC-PAD is an international symposium, started in 1987, which has continuously
presented an overview of new developments, applications, and trends in parallel
and distributed computing technologies. SBAC-PAD is open for faculty members,
researchers, specialists and graduate students around the world.

In this edition, the symposium will be held at the University of Porto, Porto,
Portugal. The city of Porto is famous for its Port wine and beautiful scenery,
architecture and cultural events.

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts on a wide range of high-performance
and distributed computing areas. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

   * Application-specific systems

   * Architecture and programming support for emerging domains (Big Data, Deep
     Learning, Machine learning, Cognitive Systems)

   * Benchmarking, performance measurements, and analysis

   * Cloud, cluster, and edge/fog computing systems

   * Embedded and pervasive systems

   * GPUs, FPGAs and accelerator architectures

   * Languages, compilers, and tools for parallel and distributed programming

   * Modeling and simulation methodology

   * Operating systems and virtualization

   * Parallel and distributed systems, algorithms, and applications

   * Power and energy-efficient systems

   * Processor, cache, memory, storage, and network architecture

   * Real-world applications and case studies

   * Reconfigurable, resilient and fault-tolerant systems
