Featured23Nov2026World Congress on Emerging Trends in Artificial Intelligence (WCETAI)The 26th International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing (ISPDC 2027) is a conference on Engineering and Technology taking place on 7–9 July 2027 in Limassol, Cyprus, organized by SEIT Lab, Department of Computer Science, University of Cyprus.
Distributed systems have seen an increasing convergence between traditional workflows
(such as HPC simulations) and agentic AI workflows. Simulation remains the workhorse of
high-performance computing, but supercomputers are increasingly asked to host a
second class of workload alongside it. Agentic AI systems (e.g., foundation models acting
autonomously through iterative loops of reasoning and tool use) now issue tool calls that
are themselves HPC tasks: simulations, solvers, and data-analysis pipelines. Serving them
adds interactive, asynchronous and bursty demands to machines designed for bulk-
synchronous batch jobs. The question this raises for our community is not one of
replacement but of extension: how schedulers, runtimes, communication layers, I/O
stacks and memory hierarchies should be extended so that agentic and other AI
workloads can coexist with, and feed back into, traditional large-scale computation. ISPDC
welcomes work on these new capabilities as much as continued advances in the classical
foundations of parallel and distributed computing.
We invite original research contributions to ISPDC 2027 in the following categories: full
papers, short papers, posters, and talks.
