SBAC-PAD is an annual international conference series, which presents the
latest trends, current research and developments, and novel tools and
applications in the fields of Computer Architecture, High-Performance
Computing, and Parallel and Distributed Computing technologies. SBAC-PAD is
open to industry, faculty, researchers, practitioners, and undergraduate
and graduate students from around the world. Its scientific program is
composed of high-quality submitted papers, selected by a thorough peer
review process, and invited talks from renowned researchers.

***** Important dates
Abstract submission deadline   July 16th, 2024 AoE (FIRM)
Paper submission deadline July 16th, 2024 AoE (FIRM)
Rebuttal period August 19 — August 22, 2024
Author notification September 02, 2024
Camera-ready submission September 23, 2024
The program committee will select the top-ranked papers as finalists, and
one paper will be selected during the conference as the Best Paper.
Selected papers will also be invited to submit an extended version to a
special issue of the Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing.

***** Topics of Interest
Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts to one of five tracks
that address challenges in any of the following areas related to the fields
of Computer Architecture (CA) and High-performance and Distributed
Computing (HPDC). 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;
Artificial intelligence and machine learning methods for CA and HPDC, and
CA and HPDC for Artificial intelligence applications;
Benchmarking, performance modeling, analysis, and evaluation;
Blockchain and distributed ledgers;
Cloud, cluster, and edge/fog computing systems;
Data-intensive workloads and tools;
Data management, storage, and I/O;
Embedded and pervasive systems;
GPUs, FPGAs, and accelerator architectures;
Languages, compilers, and tools for parallel and distributed programming;
Modeling and simulation methodologies;
Operating systems and virtualization;
Parallel and distributed systems, algorithms, models, and applications;
Power and energy-efficient systems;
Predictive models to improve performance of scientific applications
Processing-in-memory or near-data processing technologies
Processor, cache, memory, storage, and network architecture;
Quantum computing in CA and HPDC;
Real-world applications and case studies;
Reconfigurable, resilient, and fault-tolerant systems;
Security and privacy in CA and HPDC;
Workflow systems.

***** Paper submission
Papers submitted to SBAC-PAD 2024 must present original research results
and must not have been published or concurrently be submitted anywhere
else. Please check the conference website for the submission link:

https://sites.google.com/ime.usp.br/sbac2024/home

Paper submissions must be in English, have 10 pages maximum (excluding the
references), and follow the IEEE conference manuscript formatting
guidelines for double-column text using a single-spaced 10-point font on
8.5 × 11-inch pages. Templates are available from
http://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html. Papers that do
not meet these requirements might be rejected without a review. To be
published in the conference proceedings and to be eligible for publication
at the IEEE Xplore, one of the authors must register at the full rate and
present his/her work at the conference.

The SBAC-PAD 2024 submissions will undergo a double-anonymized review
process, where reviewers will not know the authors' identities, and
vice-versa. Therefore, authors should “anonymize” their submission by
adopting the following guidelines, otherwise papers will be rejected
without review:

The authors cannot include their names, affiliations, funding sources, or
acknowledgments in any part of the for-review version of their paper;
Self-references that are relevant to the work are allowed, but they should
not appear in the text in the first person. Instead, they should be
referenced in the third person, like “Smith et al. found that… [4].”, and;
For the authors' own unpublished work, they need to use anonymous citations.
