Student research Symposium – 18th IEEE International conference on High Performance Computing
Student Research Symposium
HiPC 2011 will feature the fourth student research symposium on High Performance Computing (HPC) aimed at stimulating and fostering student research, and providing an international forum to highlight student research accomplishments. We particularly encourage submissions from PhD students in India as well as from international universities. The symposium will also expose students to the best practices in HPC in academia and industry. The one-day symposium will feature brief presentations by student authors on their research, followed by a poster exhibit. Short invited talks by leading HPC researchers/practitioners will be included in the program. The Conference Reception and Student Symposium Poster Exhibits will provide an opportunity for students to interact with HPC researchers and practitioners (and recruiters) from academia and industry. To be considered, students should submit a 5 page extended abstract of their research.

For additional details, please contact the Symposium Co-Chairs at student_symposium AT hipc.org

Submission Instructions
Please submit an extended abstract of your research results in PDF format electronically through EDAS. Authors can use last year’s papers, available at http://hipc.org/hipc2010/studentsymposium.php, as samples. Your document should be at most 5 letter or A4 size (8.5 x 11) pages in 11 pt or 12 pt font, single spaced, with at least one-inch margins on all sides. Please identify the names of student authors in a footnote. Poster selection will be competitive and all submissions will be reviewed. Manuscripts will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance to the conference attendees. If some part of your submission was published by you previously, then you should cite your prior work and indicate how the current submission differs from it.
Submissions will be handled electronically through EDAS.
The selected extended abstracts will be published online on the conference web site and on a CD to be distributed at the conference. They will not be part of the official conference technical paper proceedings.
Eligibility
To be eligible to present at the symposium, the research work should primarily be the result of student research and should be presented by a student author. The student author should have been a full-time student at some point in 2011. Non-student co-authors are permitted.
Deadlines
Paper submission deadline: September 16, 2011.
Awards
A separate awards committee will select authors for Best Poster and Best Presentation awards, sponsored by the IEEE Technical Committee on Parallel Processing (TCPP). These awards are expected to include a cash component of Rs. 10,000 each.
Scholarship opportunities
Scholarship opportunities will be available for authors of accepted papers. Please check back later for more information
