INTRODUCTION
=============

With the rapid growth in computing and communications technology, the past
decade has witnessed a proliferation of powerful parallel and distributed
systems and an ever increasing demand for practice of high
performance computing and communications (HPCC). HPCC has moved into the
mainstream of computing and has become a key technology in determining
future research and development activities in many academic and industrial
branches, especially when the solution of large and complex problems must
cope with very tight timing schedules.

The 2018 High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC-2018) will
provide a high-profile, leading-edge forum for researchers, engineers, and
practitioners to present state-of-art advances and innovations in
theoretical foundations, systems, infrastructure, tools, testbeds, and
applications for the HPCC, as well as to identify emerging research topics
and define the future.

Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers to HPCC-2018. All
accepted papers are expected to be included in IEEE Xplore and will be
indexed by Engineering Index (EI). The authors of selected best papers will
be invited post conference to extend their contributions for special issues
of prestigious journals to be planned in conjunction with the conference.
