PDCAT 2014 - 16th International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing, Applications and Technologies

The International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing, Applications and Technologies (PDCAT) is a major forum for scientists, engineers, and practitioners throughout the world to present their latest research, results, ideas, developments and applications in all areas of parallel and distributed computing. Beginning in Hong Kong in 2000, PDCAT will come back to Hong Kong in 2014 after 14 years of successful journey through various countries/regions including Taiwan, Japan, China, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, and Korea across Asia-Oceania. We are inviting new and unpublished papers on, but not limited to, the following areas in the field of parallel and distributed computing: Networking, Architectures, Software Systems and Technologies, Algorithms, Applications, Security and Privacy.
Hong Kong being one of the most visited metropolitan destinations needs no introduction. December is by far the best time to visit Hong Kong when the climate is most gentle (average temperature 16-20 °C), and when the holiday season is approaching and festive mood setting in. Other than being a shopper’s paradise, Hong Kong is also well known for its hiking trails and many outdoor or recreational fascinations, and Hong Kong is a doorstep away from Macau (China’s Las Vegas) as well as China Mainland itself.
The 3-day conference will take place (tentatively) on the campus of The University of Hong Kong which is situated on the lush and green north-western slopes of Hong Kong Island, overlooking the beautiful Victoria Harbour.
