UPCOMING DEADLINE - Contributed Papers Deadline is April 7, 2017 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC) 2017 - Call for Papers December 3-6, 2017 Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa 11011 W. Charleston Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89135 www.wintersim.org WSC TURNS 50: SIMULATION EVERYWHERE! >From experimentation to theory; standards and advanced methodologies, modeling and simulation is continually pushing the envelope of the available technologies, as many sectors have growing needs to process, visualize, make readable, understand, and deploy complex models that use immense amounts of data. These players need to transform data into hypothesis building and critical decision-making, and to change their models in response to new hypotheses, usually involving multiple highly specialized experts working together in geographically distant areas. After 50 years, we are now beyond Modeling and Simulation using Grid and Cloud computing, Web-based and distributed simulation and other recent technologies. We need to deal with computing power and storage in heterogeneous environments, resources virtualization; services consumed on demand (with minimal limitation for resource location), power issues, massive datasets. We face new challenges as we have ubiquitous processors that can process applications on demand. WSC 2017 focus is on addressing how to achieve the goal of having Simulation Everywhere! WSC 2017 is sponsored by: ACM/SIGSIM, IISE (Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers), INFORMS-SIM and SCS (Society for Modeling and Simulation International), with Technical Co-Sponsorship from ASA (American Statistical Association), ASIM (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Simulation), IEEE/SMC (Systems, Man and Cybernetics) and NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology). LOCATION WSC 2017 will be held at the Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa in Las Vegas, NV. The resort hotel provides an idyllic getaway just minutes from the world-renowned Las Vegas Strip and is ideally situated near the entrance to the Red Rock Canyon National Recreation Center. PROGRAM WSC 2017 features a comprehensive program ranging from introductory tutorials to state-of-the-art research and practice. Planned tracks are: - Agent-Based Simulation - Analysis Methodology - Architecture and Construction - Aviation Modeling and Analysis - Cyber-Physical Systems - Environment and Sustainability Applications - Future of Simulation - Gaming - Healthcare Applications - History of Simulation - Hybrid Simulation - Manufacturing Applications - Logistics, SCM, Transportation - Military Applications and Homeland Security - Intelligent, Adaptive and Autonomous Systems (MSIAAS) - Modeling Methodology - Project Management - Simulation Education - Simulation Optimization - Social and Behavioral Simulation - Introductory Tutorials - Advanced Tutorials Also, a PhD Colloquium, Poster Session, Vendor and Case Studies tracks provide background on established and new methods, tools and application domains. WSC 2017 continues to incorporate the MASM (Modeling and Analysis for Semiconductor Manufacturing) Conference, the leading modeling and analysis conference for global semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain operations. KEYNOTE & TITAN SPEAKERS 50th Anniversary Keynote - Barry L Nelson Northwestern University WSC 2067: What Are The Chances? At the November 1967 "Conference on the Applications of Simulation Using GPSS" it seems unlikely that anyone was wondering if the conference would still be occupying a big hotel in 2017. Conferences persist for many reasons, but a technical conference like WSC has to remain relevant to users, vendors, researchers and consumers (not just hotels) to survive. If our kind of simulation vanished, then so (eventually) would WSC. What is required for simulation to "remain relevant" for the next 50 years? Without fear of having to answer for my crimes in 2067, I boldly speculate on what SHOULD matter for the next 10-20 years, if not the next 50, with a focus on our strength: dealing with uncertainty. 50th Anniversary Titans Robert G.

CFP: Resilience@Euro-Par 2017 - Papers due May 5
by Christian Engelmann 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this call for papers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10th Workshop on Resiliency in High Performance Computing (Resilience) in Clusters, Clouds, and Grids <http://www.csm.ornl.gov/srt/conferences/Resilience/2017 <http://www.csm.ornl.gov/srt/conferences/Resilience/2017>> in conjunction with the 23rd International European Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing (Euro-Par), Santiago de Compostela, Spain, August 28 - September 1, 2017 <http://europar2017.usc.es <http://europar2017.usc.es/>> Overview: Resilience is a critical challenge as high performance computing (HPC) systems continue to increase component counts, individual component reliability decreases (such as due to shrinking process technology and near-threshold voltage (NTV) operation), and software complexity increases. Application correctness and execution efficiency, in spite of frequent faults, errors, and failures, is essential to ensure the success of the extreme-scale HPC systems, cluster computing environments, Grid computing infrastructures, and Cloud computing services. While a fault (e.g., a bug or stuck bit) is the cause of an error, its manifestation as a state change is considered an error (e.g., a bad value or incorrect execution), and the transition to an incorrect service is observed as a failure (e.g., an application abort or system crash). A failure in a computing system is typically observed through an application abort or a full/partial service or system outage. A detectable correctable error is often transparently handled by hardware, such as a single bit flip in memory that is protected with single-error correction double-error detection (SECDED) error correcting code (ECC). A detectable uncorrectable error (DUE) typically results in a failure, such as multiple bit flips in the same addressable word that escape SECDED ECC correction, but not detection, and ultimately cause an application abort. An undetectable error (UE) may result in silent data corruption (SDC), e.g., an incorrect application output. There are many other types of hardware and software faults, errors, and failures in computing systems. Resilience for HPC systems encompasses a wide spectrum of fundamental and applied research and development, including theoretical foundations, fault detection and prediction, monitoring and control, end-to-end data integrity, enabling infrastructure, and resilient solvers and algorithm-based fault tolerance. This workshop brings together experts in the community to further research and development in HPC resilience and to facilitate exchanges across the computational paradigms of extreme-scale HPC, cluster computing, Grid computing, and Cloud computing. Submission Guidelines: Authors are invited to submit papers electronically in English in PDF format. Submitted manuscripts should be structured as technical papers and may not exceed 12 pages, including figures, tables and references, using Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) format at <http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0 <http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0>>. Submissions should include abstract, key words and the e-mail address of the corresponding author. Papers not conforming to these guidelines may be returned without review. All manuscripts will be reviewed and will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance to the conference attendees. Submitted papers must represent original unpublished research that is not currently under review for any other conference or journal. Papers not following these guidelines will be rejected without review and further action may be taken, including (but not limited to) notifications sent to the heads of the institutions of the authors and sponsors of the conference. Submissions received after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately structured may also not be considered. The proceedings will be published in Springer's LNCS as post-conference proceedings. At least one author of an accepted paper must register for and attend the workshop for inclusion in the proceedings. Authors may contact the workshop program chairs for more information.

IWOMP 2017 - 13th International Workshop on OpenMP
by OpenMP ARB 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

*IWOMP 2017 - 13th International Workshop on OpenMP* September 21-22, 2017 Stony Brook, NY, USA https://you.stonybrook.edu/iwomp2017/ *Background* For many years, OpenMP has provided a very rich and flexible programming model for shared memory architectures. OpenMP 4.0 is a major advance that adds new forms of parallelism: device constructs for accelerators, SIMD constructs for vector units, and several significant extensions for work-sharing and task-based parallelism. OpenMP 4.5 further extends OpenMP for use with today's complex heterogeneous architectures. The International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP) is an annual workshop dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel programming with OpenMP. It is the premier forum to present and discuss issues, trends, recent research ideas, and results related to OpenMP. We solicit submissions of unpublished technical papers detailing innovative, original research and development related to OpenMP. *Topics* All topics related to OpenMP are of interest, including OpenMP performance analysis and modeling, OpenMP performance and correctness tools, proposed OpenMP extensions, and OpenMP applications in any domain (e.g., scientific and numerical computation, video games, computer graphics, multimedia, information retrieval, optimization, text processing, data mining, finance, signal and image processing, and machine learning). Advances in technologies, such as new kinds of memory, deep memory hierarchies, multi-core processors, and support in OpenMP for devices (accelerators such as GPGPUs, DSPs and FPGAs), Multiprocessor Systems on a Chip (MPSoCs), present new opportunities and challenges for software and hardware developers. Recent advances in the C, C++ and Fortran base languages also offer interesting opportunities and challenges to the OpenMP programming model. IWOMP 2017 particularly solicits submissions in these areas as well as ones that discuss how to apply OpenMP to additional models of parallelism such as event loops. *Paper Submission and Registration* Submitted papers for review should be limited to 12 pages and follow LNCS guidelines. Submission deadline is April 28, 2017 (AOE). Authors of accepted papers will be asked to prepare a final paper of up to 15 pages. As in previous years, IWOMP 2017 will publish formal proceedings of the accepted papers in Springer Verlag's LNCS series. *Important Dates* Paper Submission Deadline: April 28, 2017 Notification of acceptance: May 25, 2017 Deadline for final version: June 8, 2017 *Organizers* General Chair: - Abid Malik, Brookhaven National Laboratory, USA Program Committee Co-chairs: - Bronis R. de Supinski, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA - Stephen Olivier, Sandia National Laboratories, USA
