Due to the grant growth of sequencing technologies a variety of bio-data have been revealed, the challenge to process and analyze these data becomes more and more important. Efficient database, high performance computing, cloud computing services, AI methodologies, and so forth have been applied to overcome this challenge. HPCB 2024 is intended to provide a forum for researchers to present their contributions as technical papers related to the new computation methods for analyzing big data in bioinformatics and all kinds of successful and potential applications. The papers solicited in HPCB 2024 cover a variety of topics including but not limited to :

• High Performance Computing methods on bioinformatics

• Deep Learning for NGS data analysis and applications

• Deep Learning for Medical Informatics

• GPU Computing for NGS data analysis and applications

• Novel Cloud Computing Service for Bioinformatics

• Computational Method for Big Data of Evolutionary Biology

• Scalable Computing for Evolutionary Genomics

• Database Technologies for Big Biological Dataset

• Machine Learning in Drug Discovery 

We invite you to submit papers with unpublished, original research describing recent advances on the areas related to this workshop. All papers will undergo peer review by the conference program committee. All papers accepted will be included in the Workshop Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press and will be available at the workshops. Authors of selected papers will be invited to extend their papers for submission to special issues in prestigious Journals
