Manuscript and Submission Guidelines
Abstracts of no more than 300 words must be submitted by the abstract submission deadline. The title and abstract submitted by this deadline should have sufficient detail and not just be a placeholder. Authors are strongly advised to submit their papers with the final list of authors, as changes may not be feasible at later stages.
Manuscripts can be submitted under two categories: full papers and short papers. Submitted manuscripts should be structured as technical papers and the full papers may not exceed ten (10) single-spaced double-column pages using 10-point size font on 8.5×11 inch pages (IEEE conference style), including figures, tables, and references. The short papers may not exceed five (5) single-spaced double-column pages using 10-point size font on 8.5×11 inch pages (IEEE conference style), including figures, tables, and references. All submitted manuscripts will be reviewed by the Program Committee under a double-blind review process, so the submitted paper should NOT list the authors or their affiliations. For additional guidelines, read the double blind review policy.
The IEEE conference style templates for MS Word and LaTeX provided by IEEE eXpress Conference Publishing are available for download. See the latest versions here. Electronic submissions must be in the form of a readable PDF file.
Submitted papers must represent original unpublished research that is not currently under review for any other conference or journal. Papers not following these guidelines will be rejected without review and further action may be taken, including (but not limited to) notifications sent to the heads of the institutions of the authors and sponsors of the conference. Submissions received after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately structured may also not be considered. Papers must be submitted under one of the 6 technical tracks listed above. The topics listed under each track are representative, but not exhaustive. A published proceeding will be available at the conference. At the time of publishing, authors of accepted papers may buy upto two pages in addition to the page limits specified above for their manuscript. Authors may contact the Program Chair at the email address above for further information or clarification.
No Show Policy: At least one author of each paper must be registered for the conference in order for the paper to be published in the proceedings. Accepted full papers will be presented in technical sessions and selected regular papers and short papers will be presented in a separate poster session. Presentation of an accepted paper is a requirement for publication in the proceedings. Depending on how the COVID-19 pandemic situation evolves, the presentation may be in person or in a virtual format. Details of these will be specified at the time of paper acceptance. Any paper not meeting requirements will not be included in the conference proceedings under IEEE Xplore.
Authors of selected high-quality papers in HiPC 2022 will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers for possible publication in a special issue of the Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing.

Review Process
All manuscripts will be reviewed by the Program Committee and evaluated on originality, relevance of the problem to the conference theme, technical strength, rigor in analysis, quality of results, and organization and clarity of presentation of the paper. Authors are highly encouraged to list the key contributions of their paper, for example in a separate paragraph in the introduction of the paper. The review process is “double-blind” (i.e., authors should not include their names or affiliations in the manuscript and all references to the previous works of the authors should be mentioned in third person).
The initial decision for the submission may be Accept, Reject or Revise. Papers that are recommended for revision will have to address the comments from the reviewers, and submit a revised article along with a summary of changes. The revised manuscript will go through another round of review and the final decision will be communicated.
