With the rapid growth in computing and communications technology,
the past decade has witnessed a proliferation of powerful parallel
and distributed systems and an ever increasing demand for practice
of high performance computing and communications (HPCC). HPCC-07 is a 
forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government 
to address the resulting profound challenges and to present and discuss 
their new ideas, research results, applications and experience on all 
aspects of high performance computing and communications.

HPCC-07 plans to continue the success of the previous HPCC conferences, 
such as held 2005 in Sorrento, Italy, and HPCC-06 held in Munich, 
Germany, each with over 300 submitted papers and more than 100 participants.
