24th IEEE International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing with Applications (IEEE ISPA 2026) December 27-30, 2026 @ Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia https://ieee-ai-for-science.org/2026/ispa/cfp.php CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE ISPA is a forum for presenting leading work on parallel and distributed computing and networking, including architecture, compilers, runtime systems, applications, reliability, security, parallel programming models and much more. Scientists and engineers in both academia and industry are invited to present their work on concurrent and parallel systems (multicore, multithreaded, heterogeneous, clustered systems, distributed systems, grids, clouds, edge, and large scale machines). IEEE ISPA 2026 is particularly interested in research addressing heterogeneous computing with accelerators, mobile computing, approximate computing, tools and methodologies to improve the quality of parallel programming, and applying generic computing approaches to networks. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Track 1: Systems and Architectures * Cloud computing and data center technology * Migration of computations * Multi-cloud environments, cloud federation, interoperability * Energy management and green computing * Wireless and mobile networks * Systems and architectures for artificial intelligence * Distributed/parallel algorithms and applications * Social networks, crowdsourcing, and P2P systems * Distributed file and storage systems, I/O systems Track 2: Technologies and Tools * Parallel and distributed computing paradigms * Novel parallel programming paradigms * Programming models for cloud services * Code generation and optimization * Compilers for parallel computers * Middleware and tools * Scheduling and resource management * Reliability, fault tolerance, and dependability * Generative AI, agents, and world models Track 3: Applications and Services * High-performance scientific and engineering computing * Grid and cluster computing * Pervasive and ubiquitous computing * Databases, data mining, and data management * Big data and business analytics * Scientific cloud systems and services * Internet computing and web services * Software defined networking and its applications * LLMs powered by parallel and distributed computing Track 4: Security and Blockchain * Security in parallel AI systems * Federated learning * Blockchain-based applications and services * Blockchain security and privacy * Blockchain in cyber-physical systems * Scalability issues in blockchain * Blockchain in edge and cloud computing * Decentralized blockchain-enabled AI systems Papers are published by IEEE Computer Society.
