The 16th HIPS workshop, to be held as a full-day meeting at the IPDPS 2011 conference in Anchorage, focuses on high-level programming of multiprocessors, compute clusters, and massively parallel machines. Like previous workshops in the series, which was established in 1996, this event serves as a forum for research in the areas of parallel applications, language design, compilers, runtime systems, and programming tools. It provides a timely and lightweight forum for scientists and engineers to present the latest ideas and findings in these rapidly changing fields.
This year we especially encourage innovative approaches in the areas of emerging programming models for large-scale parallel systems and many-core architectures. The topics include but are not limited to:

| Submission deadline: | December 20, 2010 (extended) |
| Author notification: | February 7, 2011 |
| Camera-ready final papers due: | February 18, 2011 |
The HIPS workshop proceedings will be published electronically along with the IPDPS conference proceedings via IEEE Xplore. Submitted manuscripts should be formatted according to IPDPS proceedings guidelines: 10-point fonts, single-spaced, and two-column format. The page size is US letter (8.5x11 inch). The maximal length is 8 pages. All papers must be in English. A call for papers in pdf format can be found here.
The workshop uses the EDAS conference manager for submission and notification. An author needs to register with EDAS as a user if this has not been done previously. Start the paper by providing the title and the abstract in plain text, and then submit the full paper in PDF. Please click here to start the process and follow the instructions. If you experience any problem, please contact us immediately.
The best papers in the area of parallel computing will be considered for inclusion in a special issue of Elsevier Parallel Computing (PARCO).
