Message from the HCW Steering Committee Chair

These are the proceedings of the “22nd Heterogeneity in Computing Workshop,” also known as HCW 2013. A few years ago, the title of the workshop was changed from the original title of “Heterogeneous Computing Workshop” to reflect the breadth of the impact of heterogeneity, as well as to stress that the focus of the workshop is on the management and exploitation of heterogeneity. All of this is, of course, taken in the context of the parent conference, the International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS), and so explores heterogeneity in parallel and distributed computing systems.
