The next High-performance Signal and Data Processing in South Africa (HPSPSA) Workshop will take place between 27-31 January 2014 at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. The workshop aims to bring together key people to discuss grand challenges facing the signal processing community in Radio Astronomy, Gamma Ray Astronomy and Particle Physics, and to provide knowledge sharing to delegates in both a lecture format, as well as a classroom environment for hands-on hardware training. General overviews and in-depth presentations will be given. The conference focuses on signal processing for high performance applications based on FPGA-accelerator platforms, and will feature both local and international speakers. Tutorials on FPGA-based processing systems, including a tutorial on using the Rhino platform, will be available for participation.

Travel subsidies to attend or present a paper at the conference can be applied for. This year we’re planning to bring our a peer-reviewed proceedings after the conference. To present and have a paper considered for inclusion in the proceedings, you need to submit an abstract of your presentation by 31 Dec 2013.
