The 15th IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC 2013) will provide a forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to address the resulting profound challenges and to present and discuss their new ideas, research results, applications and experience on all aspects of high performance computing and communications.

SSS is an international forum for researchers and practitioners in the design and development of distributed systems with self-* properties: (classical) self-stabilizing, self-configuring, self-organizing, self-managing, self-repairing, self-healing, self-optimizing, self-adaptive, and self-protecting. Research in distributed systems is now at a crucial point in its evolution, marked by the importance of dynamic systems such as peer-to-peer networks, large-scale wireless sensor networks, mobile ad hoc networks, cloud computing, robotic networks, etc. Moreover, new applications such as grid and web services, banking and e-commerce, e-health and robotics, aerospace and avionics, automotive, industrial process control, etc. have joined the traditional applications of distributed systems.

The “Cloud” is a natural evolution of distributed computing and of the widespread adoption of virtualization and SOA. In Cloud Computing, IT-related capabilities and resources are provided as services via the Internet and in an on-demand manner, being accessible without requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology. The IEEE International Conference and Workshops on Cloud Computing Technology and Science, steered by the Cloud Computing Association, aim to bring together researchers who work on cloud computing and related technologies.

CSE 2013 is the next event, in a series of highly successful International Conferences on Computational Science and Engineering, held mainly as the International Workshop on High Performance Scientific and Engineering Computing for 10 editions, mostly in conjunction with International Conference on Parallel Processing (ICPP), as COATA-98 (Orlando, USA, July 1998), HPSEC-99 (Fukushima, Japan, September 1999), HPSEC-00 (Toronto, Canada, August 2000), HPSEC-01 (Valencia, Spain, September 2001), HPSEC-02 (Vancouver, Canada, August 2002), HPSEC-03 (Kaohsing, Taiwan, October 2003), HPSEC-04 (Montreal, Canada, August 2004), HPCSE-04 with WCC-04 (Toulouse, France, August 2004), HPSEC-05 (Oslo, Norway, June 2005), HPSEC-06 (Columbus, USA, August 2006) and CSE-08 (São Paulo, Brazil, July 2008). The previous CSE-09, CSE-10, CSE-11 and CSE-12 were held in Vancouver, Canada, August 29-31, 2009, Hong Kong, China, December 11-12, 2010, Dalian, China, August 24-26, 2011 and December 5-7, 2012, Paphos, Cyprus.
