“SupercomputingAsia (SCA)” is an annual international HPC event in Asia, launched in 2018. Co-hosted by HPC centers in Australia, Japan, Singapore, and Thailand, it provides a platform for collaboration between the public and private supercomputing communities.
“HPCAsia” is an international conference in the Asia-Pacific region focused on HPC technologies. It facilitates the exchange of research findings, case studies, and ideas related to high-performance computing challenges.
“SCA/HPCAsia 2026” is a joint event bringing together two of Asia’s leading HPC conferences. Under the theme “Everything with HPC - AI, Cloud, QC and Future Society,” the event will connect communities in AI, cloud computing, and quantum computing with the world of supercomputing. Following the joint event held in Singapore in 2023, this will be the second such collaboration and the first time it is hosted in Japan.
