Introduction<br>
<br><font face="Verdana">The IEEE ISPA
201<span lang="en-au">8</span> (1<span lang="en-au">6</span>th
IEEE International Symposium on
Parallel and Distributed Processing
with Applications) 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. During the symposium,
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, and large
scale machines). </font></div><div><font face="Verdana"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana"><font face="Verdana" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">The 1<span lang="en-au" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">6</span>th
IEEE ISPA follows the tradition of
previous successful IEEE ISPA
conferences in the years from 2003
to 201<span lang="en-au" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">7</span> in
Asia, Europe, Australia and North
America. It will feature sessions of
regular presentations, workshops,
tutorials and keynote speeches. IEEE
ISPA 201<span lang="en-au" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">8</span>
is sponsored by the IEEE Technical
Committee on Scalable Computing (TCSC)
and the IEEE Computer Society. IEEE
ISPA is particularly interested
in research addressing heterogeneous
computing with the use of
accelerators, mobile computing,
approximate computing, tools and
methodologies to improve the quality
of parallel programming and applying
generic computing approaches to
networks, in particular Software
Defined networking and its
applications. </font>

Submission Guidelines<br>
<span style="font-family:Verdana">S</span>ubmissions must include an abstract, keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not exceed 8 pages for main conference, including tables and figures in IEEE CS format. The template files for LATEX or WORD can be downloaded here. All paper submissions must represent original and unpublished work. Each submission will be peer reviewed by at least three program committee members. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the conference and present the work. Submit your paper(s) in PDF file at the submission site: <font face="Verdana"><a href="http://www.swinflow.org/confs/2018/ispa/submission.htm" target="_blank">http://www.swinflow.org/<wbr>confs/<span lang="en-us">2018/ispa/</span>submission.ht<span lang="en-au">m</span></a><wbr>.</font>
