Euro-Par is an international conference dedicated to the promotion 
and advancement of all aspects of parallel computing.  
The major themes of the conference can be divided into the broad 
categories of hardware, software, algorithms and applications for 
parallel computing. The objective of Euro-Par is to provide a forum
within which to promote the development of parallel computing both 
as an industrial technique and an academic discipline, extending 
the frontier of both the state of the art and the state of practice.
This is particularly important at a time when parallel computing is 
undergoing strong and sustained development and experiencing real 
industrial take up. 
The main audience for and participants in Euro-Par are researchers 
in academic departments, government laboratories and industrial 
organisations. 

Euro-Par is the premier European academic conference on parallel 
computing and normally attracts about 350 participants.

Euro-Par is organised as a number of Workshops under the following
topics for which papers are solicited.

        Support Tools and Environments
        Performance Evaluation and Prediction
        Scheduling and Load Balancing 
        Automatic Parallelisation 
        Parallel and Distributed Databases
        Object-Oriented Programming
        Symbolic Computation 
        Real-Time Control and Data Fusion
        Data Warehousing and Data Mining
