--PURPOSE AND SCOPE--

The conference provides an international forum for scientists, engineers, and users to exchange and share their experiences, new ideas, and latest research results on all aspects of parallel and distributed systems. All papers accepted for ICPADS 2008 conference and workshops will appear in the Proceedings of ICPADS 2008, which is to be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.

Awards will also be given to the best papers. Contributions are solicited in all areas of parallel and distributed systems research and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Parallel and Distributed Applications and Algorithms
* High Performance Computational Biology and Bioinformatics
* Multi-core and Multithreaded Architectures
* Power-aware Computing
* Distributed and Parallel Operating Systems
* Resource Management and Scheduling
* Peer-to-Peer Computing
* Cluster and Grid Computing
