HPCS 2017 SPONSORS AND SPONSORSHIPS

The 15th International Conference on High Performance Computing and Simulation (HPCS 2017) is a premier international conference on topics at the confluence of high performance and large scale computing systems, their use in modeling and simulation, their design, performance and use, and their impact, and related issues. Running annually since 2003, it currently attracts over 160 participants, including the best talent in industry, academia, and government research labs. The purpose of the conference is to identify challenging problems facing the development of future high performance computing systems and to shape up future research directions through the publication of applied and theoretical research findings of the highest quality. The program will foster collaboration and bridge the academic-industry-government gap in the high performance computing technologies & systems, Multicores, cloud computing, big data and data analytics, services computing, and several related and applied issues such as modeling and simulation, healthcare and bioinformatics, education, robotics and autonomous systems, emergency response, financial sector, and gamification communities. Attendees will hear about recent research results and be able to network with luminaries, researchers, and practitioners in the field. HPCS 2017 which will be held in Genoa, Italy will attract some of the best researchers, practitioners and graduate students, from academic, industrial and government research institutions, and offer unparalleled opportunities for recruiting top talent.

Sponsor Opportunities

HPCS 2017 offers a variety of sponsorship opportunities suitable for both large as well as small organizations. Sponsors of HPCS gain visibility for their organizations, demonstrate their support for critical high performance computing systems and technologies as well as modeling and simulation solutions and tools and related research and development, and also contribute to the success of the conference. Five levels of sponsorship are available:

  • Platinum: $3,500 and above

  • Gold: $1,750 and above

  • Silver: $850 and above

  • Bronze: less than $850

Sponsors will also have the opportunity to sponsor individual awards and events with reduced benefits.

  • Awards - HPCS 2017 is offering opportunities to sponsor student travel awards and outstanding paper and poster paper awards. The sponsor's name will be announced and prominently displayed during the awards ceremony.

  • Events - HPCS 2017 is offering opportunities to sponsor a conference speaker, a conference luncheon, a conference reception, and the conference banquet. During these events, the sponsor's name will be prominently displayed and the sponsor will be offered 10 minutes to make a presentation for the purpose of recruiting and/or advertising. HPCS is also offering opportunities to sponsor student luncheons -- these will be offered to student attendees at the time of registration.
