This book constitutes the proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Algorithms and
Architectures for Parallel Processing  ICA3PP 2017  held in Helsinki  Finland  in August 2017.
The 25 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 117 submissions. They
cover topics such as parallel and distributed architectures  software systems and programming
models  distributed and network-based computing  big data and its applications  parallel and
distributed algorithms  applications of parallel and distributed computing  service
dependability and security in distributed and parallel systems  service dependability and
security in distributed and parallel systems  performance modeling and evaluation.This volume
also includes 41 papers of four workshops  namely: the 4th International Workshop on Data  Text
Web  and Social Network Mining (DTWSM 2017)  the 5th International Workshop on Parallelism in
Bioinformatics (PBio 2017)  the First International Workshop on Distributed Autonomous
Computing in Smart City (DACSC 2017)  and the Second International Workshop on Ultrascale
Computing for Early Researchers (UCER 2017).
