- Resource Management and Awareness
- I/O Algorithms and Architectures
- Parallel and Distributed Issues in Big Data
- Peer-to-Peer Systems
Regular papers:
Regular papers should report on original research, submitted exclusively
to this conference. Submissions may not exceed ten (10) single-spaced
double-column pages, in addition to references and an optional appendix.
Papers will be judged based on quality, not their lengthâ€"shorter
papers are welcome. All necessary details to substantiate the main
claims of the paper should be included either in the body of the paper
or in a clearly marked appendix.
Brief announcements:
SPAA also solicits brief announcements that raise issues of interest to
the SPAA community. Brief announcements may not exceed two (2)
single-spaced double-column pages, in addition to references and an
optional appendix. Examples of good brief announcements include: (i)
papers previously published elsewhere of interest to SPAA, (ii) work in
progress, (iii) announcement of tools/libraries, (iv) challenge problems
posted to the community, (v) corrections to earlier results. Brief
announcements may also include smaller results of interest.
Authors may request that a regular paper be considered as a brief
announcement. As far as possible, the program committee will remain
blind to this request until status as a regular paper has been resolved.
Such a request will not affect the chances the manuscript be accepted as
a regular paper.
Submission details:
Manuscripts submitted for review must use a single-spaced double-column
format for 8.5x11-inch paper, use at least a 9-point font size, and have
reasonable margins and spacing throughout. Submissions may, but are not
required to, adopt the final ACM sigconf format from
https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. Regular papers
may not exceed ten (10) pages and brief announcements may not exceed two
(2) pages. References and the appendix do not count toward the limit,
but everything else does. Visit this link for submission details.
Awards:
Every regular paper is eligible for the best paper award.
