Developing parallel or distributed applications is a hard task and it requires advanced algorithms, realistic modeling, efficient design tools, high-level programming abstractions, high-performance implementations, and experimental evaluation. Ongoing research in this field emphasizes the design and development of correct, high-performance, portable, and scalable parallel programs. Related to these central needs, important work addresses methods for reusability, performance prediction, large-scale deployment, self-adaptivity, and fault-tolerance. Given the rich history in this field, practical applicability of proposed methods, models, algorithms, or techniques is a key requirement for timely research. This topic is focusing on parallel and distributed programming in general, except for work specifically targeting multicore and manycore architectures, which has matured to becoming a Euro-Par topic of its own.
