Join us at the 2026 IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing and Communications

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.

Among a series of highly successful International Conferences on High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC), the HPCC-2026 conference is a leading 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. IEEE HPCC-2026 is sponsored by IEEE, IEEE Computer Society, and IEEE Technical Committee on Scalable Computing (TCSC).

IEEE HPCC-2026 follows the tradition of previous successful IEEE HPCC conferences held from 2005 to 2025 in Asia, Europe, Australia, and America. It will feature sessions of regular presentations, workshops, tutorials and keynote speeches. IEEE HPCC-2026 will be hosted in Luoyang, China, a historic city known for its rich cultural heritage and as one of the ancient capitals of China. Luoyang is home to numerous historical landmarks, including the renowned Longmen Grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the famous White Horse Temple, regarded as the cradle of Buddhism in China. The city also offers a harmonious blend of tradition and modern development, making it an attractive destination for international visitors.

Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers to HPCC-2026. Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements. 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.
