With 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 is now in the mainstream of computing and is 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 HPCC-07 conference provides 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.

We look forward to welcoming you in person to HPCC-07. The conference will be held at the up-scale Hotel ZaZa in the Houston, USA.

HPCC-07 continues the success of the first two HPCC conferences: HPCC-05 held in Sorrento, Italy, and HPCC-06 held in Munich, Germany, each with more than 300 submitted papers and more than 100 participants.
