HCW 2026
The thirty-fifth Heterogeneity in Computing Workshop (HCW) will be held in New Orleans, USA, on May 26, 2026. HCW is annually organized in conjunction with the International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS). We are now inviting authors to submit original research in topics related to HCW 2026 by Thursday, January 29, 2026. Please see the Call for Papers for more details.
Heterogeneous computing systems comprise growing numbers of increasingly more diverse computing resources that can be local to one another or geographically distributed. The opportunity and need for effectively utilizing heterogeneous computing resources has given rise to the notions of cluster computing, grid computing, and cloud computing. HCW encourages paper submissions from both the research and industry communities presenting novel ideas on theoretical and practical aspects of computing in heterogeneous computing environments.
The proceedings of HCW 2026 will be distributed at the conference and submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library after the conference.
For location, registration, and accommodation details, please see the IPDPS 2026 website.
