Many areas of science, industry, and commerce are producing extreme-scale data that must be processed — stored, managed, analyzed — in order to extract useful knowledge. This topic seeks papers in all aspects of distributed and parallel data management and data analysis. For example, cloud and grid data-intensive processing, parallel and distributed machine learning, HPC in situ data analytics, parallel storage systems, scalable data processing workflows, federated learning and distributed stream processing are all in the scope of this topic.
