The IPDPS PhD Forum focuses on current graduate students working
toward a PhD in broadly defined areas related to parallel and
distributed processing. This forum at IPDPS offers graduate students
an opportunity to present a research poster describing their ongoing
dissertation to the entire IPDPS conference audience. It is also an
opportunity to discuss their research with experts in academia and
industry during the conference and to make useful contacts regarding
future career opportunities related to their research. Moreover, the
authors may describe their dissertation proposal and preliminary
results in a short paper, which will be published with the proceedings
of the IPDPS Workshops. These papers will be available through the
IEEE Computer Society Digital Library and IEEE Xplore and will be EI indexed.

KEY DATES
27 January 2012  Extended Submission deadline
14 February 2012  Submission of faculty endorsement
22 February 2012  Acceptance notification sent
