The ACM International Conference on Supercomputing is a forum for engineers
and scientists throughout the world to exchange ideas and research results
relating to high performance supercomputing systems.
The 11th Conference in the series, ICS'97, will be held in Vienna, Austria,
in July 1997. Vienna is the site of one of the oldest universities in the
world, which was the home of the Vienna Circle and of Kurt Gödel
and, in recent years, became a European Center for high performance
parallel computing. Located in the heart of Europe, Vienna offers the
visitor many attractive sites reflecting its 2000-year history, and
provides a wide range of cultural activities.
The conference will include an exhibition and a number of special sessions,
panels, and workshops whose details will be announced separately.
The main focus of ICS'97 will be high performance and parallel computing
systems viewed from the three perspectives of applications, software, and
architectures. Papers describing significant new research results and
experience in the development and application of such systems are
solicited. The Conference Proceedings will be published by ACM Press.
Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to, the following:
- Large-scale applications and parallel algorithms;
- New experimental and commercial systems;
- Program development tools;
- Programming languages and optimizing compilers;
- Operating systems and systems support software;
- Parallel, multithreaded and high performance computer architectures;
- Performance modeling and evaluation;
- Computing in heterogeneous systems.
Authors should submit papers (around 6,000 words maximum), preferably by
e-mail in PostScript format or on paper (5 copies), to the Vice Program
Chair for the appropriate technical area, as follows:
