Overview
--------
We are witnessing an increasing demand for high-performance computing (HPC)
infrastructures. Modern applications require processing of computationally intensive
workloads, across diverse domains driven by AI/ML, federated learning, and data-intensive
needs in distributed Cloud-Edge-HPC environments.

Traditional distinctions between HPC and cloud infrastructures are blurring as modern
cloud and edge environments incorporate capabilities historically exclusive to HPC systems.

The AHPC3 workshop focuses on achieving HPC via Cloud-Edge architectures, promoting
energy-efficient execution, green computing, and intelligent resource management.
It explores adaptation of technologies like serverless computing, microservices,
and fine-grained task offloading for scalable and resilient HPC applications.

We welcome original contributions on programming paradigms, runtime systems, orchestration
frameworks, efficient data management, fault tolerance, security, and sustainability
in hybrid environments.
