===============================================================

MISSION:
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease progressively affect speech production through changes in motor control, cognition, language, and respiratory function. Speech and voice therefore represent promising non-invasive and easily accessible biomarkers for supporting disease assessment, monitoring progression, and evaluating treatment response.
SBiND 2027 aims to bring together researchers, clinicians, engineers, and industry professionals working on speech and voice biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases. The workshop will promote interdisciplinary discussion on the development of reliable signal-processing and artificial-intelligence methods and their translation into clinically meaningful and deployable solutions.
Building on previous research and challenge-based initiatives in this field, SBiND will address the methodological, clinical, and technological barriers that currently limit the generalizability, interpretability, reproducibility, and real-world adoption of speech-based biomarkers.

TOPICS:
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Speech and voice biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases
• Speech signal processing for neurological assessment and monitoring
• Acoustic, phonetic, prosodic, linguistic, and conversational biomarkers
• Artificial intelligence and machine learning for speech-based assessment
• Deep learning, self-supervised learning, and foundation models
• Automatic detection, classification, and differential diagnosis
• Longitudinal modelling and disease-progression prediction
• Multilingual, cross-lingual, and cross-corpus generalization
• Domain adaptation and robust learning across recording conditions
• Explainable and clinically interpretable artificial intelligence
• Multimodal integration of speech, language, clinical, imaging, and sensor data
• Digital phenotyping and remote patient monitoring
• Mobile, wearable, and telemedicine solutions for speech assessment
• Data quality, annotation protocols, and dataset harmonization
• Privacy-preserving learning and secure health-data processing
• Federated learning for distributed clinical data
• Bias, fairness, ethics, and responsible AI in clinical applications
• Reproducibility, benchmarking, and open science
• Clinical validation and real-world deployment
• Human-centred technologies and clinician–AI collaboration
• Regulatory and translational challenges for speech-based digital biomarkers

IMPORTANT DATES:
• Paper submission deadline: November 11, 2026

The 26th International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing (ISPDC 2027): First Call for Papers

The 26th International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Computing
(ISPDC 2027)

July 7-9, 2027, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus

Distributed systems have seen an increasing convergence between traditional workflows
(such as HPC simulations) and agentic AI workflows. Simulation remains the workhorse of
high-performance computing, but supercomputers are increasingly asked to host a
second class of workload alongside it. Agentic AI systems (e.g., foundation models acting
autonomously through iterative loops of reasoning and tool use) now issue tool calls that
are themselves HPC tasks: simulations, solvers, and data-analysis pipelines. Serving them
adds interactive, asynchronous and bursty demands to machines designed for bulk-
synchronous batch jobs. The question this raises for our community is not one of
replacement but of extension: how schedulers, runtimes, communication layers, I/O
stacks and memory hierarchies should be extended so that agentic and other AI
workloads can coexist with, and feed back into, traditional large-scale computation. ISPDC
welcomes work on these new capabilities as much as continued advances in the classical
foundations of parallel and distributed computing.

We invite original research contributions to ISPDC 2027 in the following categories: full
papers, short papers, posters, and talks.

● Performance modeling, analysis, and evaluation
● Parallel and distributed I/O, storage and data management
● Architectures and environments for parallel and distributed computing
● Resource management and scheduling, including co-scheduling of interactive AI
services with batch workloads
● Reproducibility and explainability in parallel and distributed computing
● Cloud computing, edge computing, federated learning
● Machine learning in the context of parallel and distributed systems
● Distributed training and inference at scale: parallel strategies, memory offloading,
checkpointing, model serving
● Extending HPC systems for agentic AI: tool calls into simulations, agent memory and
context data management
