======================================================

27th ACM Symposium on
Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA 2015)
June 13-15, 2015
Portland, Oregon, USA
http://www.spaa-conference.org

This year, SPAA will be part of the Federated Computing Research Conference (FCRC)
General FCRC information is available at http://fcrc.acm.org

======================================================

Important Dates:

Submission deadlines:
- Abstract: January 14, 11:59pm EST
- Full versions: January 16, 11:59pm EST

Rebuttal period: March 4-5
Notification: March 23

======================================================

Contributed papers are sought in all areas of parallel algorithms and
architectures, encompassing any computation system that can perform multiple
operations or tasks simultaneously. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:

- parallel and distributed algorithms
- parallel and distributed data structures
- green computing & power-efficient architectures
- management of massive data sets
- parallel complexity theory
- parallel and distributed architectures
- multi-core architectures
- instruction level parallelism and VLSI
- compilers and tools for concurrent programming
- supercomputing architecture and computing
- transactional memory hardware and software
- game theory and collaborative learning
- routing and information dissemination
- resource management and awareness
- peer-to-peer systems
- mobile, ad-hoc, and sensor networks
- robustness, self-stabilization, and security
- synergy of parallelism in algorithms, programming, and architecture

Conference presentations will have two formats:

Regular presentations will be allotted a 25-minute talk and up to 10
pages in the proceedings. This format is intended for contributions
reporting original research, submitted exclusively to this conference.

Brief announcements will be allotted a 10-minute talk and a 2-page
abstract in the proceedings. This format is a forum for brief
communications, which may be published later in other conferences.

Every regular paper is eligible for the best paper award. The program
committee may decline to make this award or may split the award among
multiple papers.

Submission:

Authors of contributed papers are encouraged to submit their manuscript
electronically. To submit electronically, visit http://www.spaa-conference.org
for instructions. This is the preferred method of submission.  Authors unable
to submit electronically should contact the program chair Kunal Agrawal at 
kunal at wustl.edu to receive instructions on how to proceed.

Submissions for regular presentations should include an introduction
understandable to a nonspecialist including motivation and previous work, and
a technical exposition directed to a specialist. A submission should not
exceed 10 double-column pages in 9-point font, including figures, tables, and 
references.  More details may be supplied in a clearly marked appendix to
be read at the discretion of the program committee. A submission for brief
announcements should be no longer than two double-column pages in 9-point
font. 

Rebuttal Period:

There will be a rebuttal period in which the authors can point out
misunderstandings or comment on critical questions that PC members may have.
The rebuttal period will take place on March 4-5.
