IPDPS 2020 General Co-chairs Closing Message
To say that this was an unusual year would be much more than an understatement. Nevertheless, the essence of IPDPS as a premier conference in the area remains strong, healthy and vibrant. We owe this to the countless people (authors, and many others included) who have silently helped bring the pieces together. In the spirit of a city that came roaring back from the calamity of Katrina, and the rest of us looking to emerge from the COVID-19 situation, we are eager for IPDPS to experience the magic of New Orleans sometime in the near future. For now, we hope that you and your families continue to stay safe and healthy…
