ISC High Performance 2019

ISC HPC 2019


Computing Systems



The ISC research paper sessions provide world-class opportunities for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to present and discuss issues, trends, and results that will shape the future of high performance computing (HPC), Networking, Storage and AI/Machine Learning.
Submitted research papers will be reviewed by the ISC 2019 Research Papers Committee, which is headed by Dr.-Ing. Carsten Trinitis, TU Munich, as Chair and Saday Sadayappan, Ohio State University, as Deputy Chair as well as Dr. Michèle Weiland, EPCC as Proceedings Chair and Guido Juckeland, Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, as Proceedings Deputy Chair.
The research paper sessions will be held from Monday, June 17, through Wednesday, June 19, 2019. Attendance will require a Conference Pass.
The ISC organizers as well as the German Gauss Center for Supercomputing will again sponsor the call for research papers with two awards for outstanding research papers: the Hans Meuer Award and the GAUSS Award.
