Call for papers
Please note that the conference dates have changed.
Given the unpredictable COVID-19 pandemic situation over the world and at the request of many authors, the ISPDC 2021 edition has been delayed and will be held on July 28 – 30, 2021. The ISPDC 2021 edition will be organized as a virtual conference (online event).
Today, Parallel and Distributed Computing (PDC) is an important research area that has a strong contribution to the advancements in science, engineering and society at large. Its evolution is characterized by a continuous development of new approaches in the modeling, design, analysis, evaluation, and programming of parallel and distributed computing systems and applications. The goal of the 20th International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing (ISPDC 2021) is to bring together researchers, engineers, and practitioners for the purpose to share their experiences in the development of new algorithms, applications, architectures for parallel and distributed computing, as well as modelling and simulation, visualization, and data analytics. We cordially invite you to submit your contributions to the ISPDC 2021. The event will host invited talks, presentations of contributed papers, tutorials, workshops, and industrial sessions. The Proceedings of the ISPDC 2021 conference will be published in IEEE Xplore digital library, indexed by Scopus (Elsevier) and Web of Science (WoS).
We cordially invite you to submit your contributions to the ISPDC 2021. The event will host invited talks, presentations of contributed papers, tutorials, workshops, and industrial sessions.Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that present original unpublished research in all areas of parallel and distributed computing.

Submission Guidelines
Indicate the kind of paper you are submitting:
• Full Paper
• Short Paper / Work in progress
We encourage authors to select the appropriate length of paper based on the scope of the contribution of their research. Short papers generally have a smaller scope and/or contribution; they provide an opportunity to describe significant novel work in progress or research. Accepted full papers and short papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
Manuscripts must be submitted by the submission deadline; full paper manuscripts may not exceed eight (8) and short paper manuscripts may not exceed five (5) single-spaced double-column pages using 10-point size font on 8.5x11 inch pages (IEEE conference style), including figures, tables, and references. The submitted manuscripts should include author names and affiliations. Instructions for submission will be posted on the conference’s website.The IEEE conference style templates for MS Word and LaTeX provided by IEEE eXpress Conference Publishing are available for download. See the latest versions here (https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html)Files should be submitted by following the instructions at the ISPDC 2021 Submission Site. All submissions are handled through the Easychair platform.
