Submissions are sought in all areas of parallel algorithms and architectures, broadly construed, including both theoretical and experimental perspectives. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
| Parallel and Distributed Algorithms | Parallel and Distributed Architectures |
| Parallel and Distributed Data Structures | Multiprocessor and Multicore Architectures |
| Parallel Complexity Theory | Transactional Memory Hardware and Software |
| Scheduling in Parallel Systems | Instruction Level Parallelism and VLSI |
| Compilers and Tools for Concurrent Programming | Specification and Verification of Concurrent Systems |
| Mobile, Ad-Hoc, Wireless and Sensor Networks | Algorithms for GPUs and Heterogeneous Hardware |
| Fault Tolerance and Reliability | High-Performance Computing and Architectures |
| Self-Stabilization and Self-Organization | Green & Power-Efficient Algorithms and Architectures |
| Algorithms for Social Networks | Security and Privacy in Parallel/Distributed Systems |
| Game Theory and Collaborative Learning | Biological Distributed Algorithms |
| Network Algorithms | Algorithms for Routing and Information Dissemination |
| Resource Management and Awareness | I/O Algorithms and Architectures |
| Parallel and Distributed Issues in Big Data | Peer-to-Peer Systems |
Regular papers should report on original research, submitted exclusively to this conference. Submissions may not exceed ten (10) single-spaced double-column pages, in addition to references and an optional appendix. Papers will be judged based on quality, not their length—shorter papers are welcome. All necessary details to substantiate the main claims of the paper should be included either in the body of the paper or in a clearly marked appendix.
Brief announcements:SPAA also solicits brief announcements that raise issues of interest to the SPAA community. Brief announcements may not exceed two (2) single-spaced double-column pages, in addition to references and an optional appendix. Examples of good brief announcements include: (i) papers previously published elsewhere of interest to SPAA, (ii) work in progress, (iii) announcement of tools/libraries, (iv) challenge problems posted to the community, (v) corrections to earlier results. Brief announcements may also include smaller results of interest.
Authors may request that a regular paper be considered as a brief announcement. As far as possible, the program committee will remain blind to this request until status as a regular paper has been resolved. Such a request will not affect the chances the manuscript be accepted as a regular paper.
Submission details:Manuscripts submitted for review must use a single-spaced double-column format for 8.5x11-inch paper, use at least a 9-point font size, and have reasonable margins and spacing throughout. Submissions may, but are not required to, adopt the final ACM sigconf format from https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. Regular papers may not exceed ten (10) pages and brief announcements may not exceed two (2) pages. References and the appendix do not count toward the limit, but everything else does.

Awards:Every regular paper is eligible for the best paper award.
