Submissions & Deadlines


Deadlines

Important Submission Information

How to Participate

SIAM requests that individuals limit themselves to giving one talk. (This does not apply to invited plenary speakers). The co-chairs of the organizing committee may make exceptions to this request. A poster may be presented in addition to a talk, provided the talk and the poster are on different topics. All submissions are subject to review and final approval by the co-chairs.”

You are invited to contribute a presentation in one of the formats listed below.

Acceptance Notification

Authors will be notified by email in December 2021.

Speaker Cancellation

The Organizing Committee expects every speaker in a scheduled presentation to register and attend.

If it becomes necessary for a speaker to cancel a presentation, he or she should try to find an alternate presenter immediately, preferably a co-author. See SIAM Policy on Substitute Speakers and Remote Presentations. Contact SIAM at [email protected] immediately with any change to a scheduled presentation.

A “no-show” or cancelled presentation can cause serious inconvenience to the attendees and organizers. The committee thanks all speakers in advance for their compliance to this request.

While the expectation is that the COVID situation will be stable enough for the conference to be held physically, there remains uncertainty regarding international travel at the current moment. If an author cannot physically attend the conference due to COVID concerns, an alternative arrangement will be made possible.

Additional Information


Submission Formats

Minisymposia

A minisymposium generally consists of four 25-minute presentations, with an additional five minutes for discussion after each presentation. To ensure balance, SIAM prefers a single individual not be the organizer or co-organizer of more than one minisymposium, however, organizers can submit up to three (3) parts per minisymposium, allowing up to twelve (12) speakers. In addition, SIAM discourages minisymposia in which most of the speakers or co-authors come from the same institution.

A minisymposium comprised of multiple parts (up to 3) will be counted as a SINGLE minisymposium.

SIAM also requests speakers submit only one oral presentation, either a minisymposium presentation or contributed lecture. Minisymposium session organizers and individual speakers are equally responsible for ensuring participants adhere to the one talk per person rule.

It is recommended the first speaker provide an overview of the topic area. Each minisymposium speaker should submit an abstract no longer than 1,500 characters, including spaces. The organizing committee will referee minisymposium proposals. The number of minisymposia may be limited to retain an acceptable level of parallelism in sessions.

Please visit the Guidelines for Preparing a Minisymposium Proposal.

SIAM requires minisymposium organizers propose sessions with a minimum of three (3) confirmed speakers by the minisymposium submission deadline. Sessions submitted with a majority of speakers listed as “TBD/TBA,” or using placeholders, risk immediate rejection.

Prospective minisymposium organizers must submit a proposal consisting of a title, a description (not to exceed 1,500 characters, including spaces), a list of speakers, and presentation titles using the Conference Management System.

Deadline for submission of minisymposium proposals: August 24, 2021 Extended to September 14, 2021 (11:59 p.m. AoE)
Deadline for submission of minisymposium speaker abstracts: September 14, 2021 (11:59 p.m. AoE) Extended to September 28, 2021 (11:59 p.m. AoE)


Contributed Presentations in Lecture or Poster Format

Contributed presentations in lecture or poster format are invited in all areas consistent with the conference themes. A lecture format is generally a 15-minute oral presentation with an additional five (5) minutes for discussion. Talk lengths will be determined by the co-chairs at the close of submissions.

SIAM also requests speakers submit only one oral presentation, either a minisymposium presentation or contributed lecture.

A poster format involves the use of non-electronic visual aids for mounting on a 4’ x 8’ poster board. A poster session is two hours long. Each contributor, either for a lecture or a poster, must submit a title and a brief abstract not to exceed 1,500 characters, including spaces.

A poster may be presented in addition to a talk, provided the talk and the poster are on different topics.

Please submit contributed presentations in lecture or poster format using the Conference Management System.

Deadline for submission of contributed abstracts: September 14, 2021 (11:59 p.m. AoE) Extended to September 28, 2021 (11:59 p.m. AoE)


Proceedings

The SIAM Conference on Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing (SIAM PP22) and the SIAM Activity Group on Supercomputing (SIAG-SC) invite research paper submissions on parallel algorithms, scalable scientific computing, simulation, visualization, and machine learning. The SIAM PP conference series focuses on the design of numerical and discrete algorithms in the context of modern parallel computer architectures, covering both theory and practice.

Included Themes

  • Compilers and programming systems
  • Data analysis and visualization
  • Education in HPC
  • Fault-tolerance
  • Large-scale parallel applications
  • Parallel computer systems
  • Performance analysis, tuning, and debugging
  • Reproducibility
  • Scalable parallel algorithms
  • Scientific workflows

Special Themes

  • Algorithms and applications on multiphysics and multiscale computing
  • Frontiers of scientific computing
  • Integration of scientific computing and machine learning methods
  • Post Moore systems and algorithms
  • Verification, validation, and uncertainty quantification

The research papers will be peer-reviewed. We will use a rigorous academic peer-review process and single-blind reviewing. The reviewers will also nominate papers for best paper and best student paper, and the winners will be finalized during the conference.

Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of the SIAM Conference on Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing Conference, will be DOI indexed, and will be accessible through the SIAM proceedings web site. Integration of these papers into the SIAM PP series conference program would be in addition to the standard minisymposia and contributed talks.

Submission format: 10 pages without references. Supplementary material will be allowed.

Deadlines:
Papers due: October 1, 2021
