[Apologies for crossposting - please kindly disseminate to your colleagues] ***** CALL FOR PAPERS ***** 3rd European Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Computing Education for Undergraduate Students (Euro-EDUPAR), in conjunction with Euro-Par 2017, Santiago de Compostela, Spain, August 28/29, 2017. http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~rizos/euroedupar/index.html Submission deadline: May 5, 2017 Submission web site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=europar2017workshops SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES Parallel and Distributed Computing (PDC) is nowadays omnipresent. It is in all the computational environments, from mobile devices, laptops and desktops to clusters, large-scale data centers and supercomputers, often comprising CPUs and/or coprocessors of different types (GPU, MIC, FPGA). It becomes now vital to train new generations of scientists and engineers in the use of these computational systems: parallelism-related topics must be incorporated in Computer Science (CS) and Computer Engineering (CE) programs. In this context, the 3rd European Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Computing Education for Undergraduate Students (Euro-EDUPAR) invites unpublished manuscripts from individuals or teams from academia, industry, and other educational and/or research institutes on topics pertaining to the teaching of PDC topics in the Computer Science and Engineering curriculum as well as in Computational Science with PDC and/or High Performance Computing (HPC) concepts, with emphasis on European undergraduate teaching. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 1. Parallel and Distributed Computing (PDC) teaching in the European space 2. Pedagogical issues in PDC, educational methods and learning mechanisms 3. Novel ways of teaching PDC topics, including informal learning environments 4. Curriculum design, models for incorporating PDC topics in core CS/CE curriculum 5. Experience with incorporating PDC topics into core CS/CE courses 6. Experience with incorporating PDC topics in the context of other applications learning 7. Pedagogical tools, programming environments, and languages for PDC 8. e-Learning, e-Laboratory, online courses related to PDC 9. PDC teaching experiences at non-university levels: secondary school, industry, etc SUBMISSION GUIDELINES The submissions will follow the Euro-Par guidelines, in PDF format, and should not exceed 12 pages in the Springer LNCS style, which can be downloaded from the Springer Web site. Paper submission is handled electronically (EasyChair). The 12-page limit is comprehensive (text, figures, references). Complete LaTeX sources must be provided for accepted papers. Short papers and work-in-progress papers can be submitted and presented at the workshop, but they will not be eligible for the post-conference proceedings. Submissions will be reviewed by at least 3 members of the Program Committee and will be assessed according to impact at European level, the novelty of contributions, impact on broader undergraduate curriculum, relevance to the goals of the workshop, results and methodology. The workshop proceedings will be published in a LNCS Euro-Par 2017 Workshops volume after the conference. Only full papers between 10 and 12 pages presented at the workshop will be included. IMPORTANT DATES May 5, 2017: Paper submission deadline June 16, 2017: Author notification July 21, 2017: Paper due, for informal workshop proceedings October 3, 2017: Camera-ready paper (including LaTeX sources) deadline ORGANIZATION General Co-Chairs: Sushil K.
