CALL FOR PAPERS  

 PPAM 2015      

 11th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON  PARALLEL PROCESSING AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS  

 

Krakow, Poland,

September 6-9, 2015

http://ppam.pl <http://ppam.pl/>

 

The PPAM 2015 conference, eleven in a series, will cover topics in

parallel and distributed computing, including theory and applications,

as well as applied mathematics. The focus will be on models, algorithms,

and software tools which facilitate efficient and convenient utilization

of modern parallel and distributed computing architectures,

as well as on large-scale applications, including big data problems.

 

PPAM is a biennial conference started in 1994, with the proceedings

published in the LNCS series. The PPAM Proceedings are indexed in main

databases such as Web of Science, SciVerse Scopus, and DBLP.

 

PPAM 2015 will take place in beautiful Krakow, the old capital of Poland,

a major national academic, cultural and artistic centre.

 

---- PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION ---

 

Authors should submit full papers (draft versions) before April 26,

2015. Regular papers are not to exceed 10 pages (LNCS style). Papers

will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit

and relevance to the conference topics. The proceedings will be

published after the conference in the LNCS series.
