The IPTPS proceedings wouldn't be a bad place to start:

http://www.cs.rice.edu/Conferences/IPTPS02/
http://iptps03.cs.berkeley.edu/program.html
http://iptps04.cs.ucsd.edu/

The papers are short (many went on to become full-fledged conference 
papers) and cover a broad range of topics in the field.

Happy reading.
