The 25th International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing, Applications and Technologies (PDCAT) will take place in Hong Kong, China, during December 13-15, 2024. It will be a great opportunity to share your excellent research work with esteemed colleagues from all over the world.

PDCAT serves as a primary platform for scientists, engineers, and practitioners globally to present the most recent research findings, outcomes, concepts, advancements, and applications in all facets of parallel and distributed computing, including parallel architectures, algorithms, and programming techniques. Over its 24-year history, PDCAT has been successfully convened in many countries spanning Asia-Oceania, including China, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand. We earnestly wish participants to gain insights into foundational theories, practical experimental data, emerging business models, and the most recent academic trends from this conference.
