ScalA’17: 8th Workshop on Latest Advances in
Scalable Algorithms for Large-Scale Systems
held in conjunction with the
SC17: The International Conference on High Performance
Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis
in cooperation with ACM SIGHPC
November 13, 2017, Denver, CO, USA
<http://www.csm.ornl.gov/srt/conferences/Scala/2017>
Novel scalable scientific algorithms are needed in order to enable key
science applications to exploit the computational power of large-scale
systems. This is especially true for the current tier of leading petascale
machines and the road to exascale computing as HPC systems continue to scale
up in compute node and processor core count. These extreme-scale systems
require novel scientific algorithms to hide network and memory latency, have
very high computation/communication overlap, have minimal communication, and
have no synchronization points.
Scientific algorithms for multi-petaflop and exa-flop systems also need to be
fault tolerant and fault resilient, since the probability of faults increases
with scale. Resilience at the system software and at the algorithmic level is
needed as a crosscutting effort. Finally, with the advent of heterogeneous
compute nodes that employ standard processors as well as GPGPUs, scientific
algorithms need to match these architectures to extract the most performance.
This includes different system-specific levels of parallelism as well as
co-scheduling of computation. Key science applications require novel
mathematical models and system software that address the scalability and
resilience challenges of current- and future-generation extreme-scale HPC
systems.

10th Workshop on Resiliency in High Performance Computing (Resilience)
in Clusters, Clouds, and Grids
<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>
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
BETWEEN 10 AND 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>. Papers with

guidelines. 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

SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Incorporating new advancements of Information Technology (IT) in general and High Performance Computing (HPC) in particular in the domain of Life Sciences and Biomedical Research continues to receive tremendous attention of researchers, biomedical institutions and the rest of the biomedical community. Although medical instruments have benefited a great deal from the technological advances of the couple of decades, the impact of integrating IT advancements in addressing critical problems in biomedical research remains limited and the process of penetrating IT tools in the medical profession continues to be a very challenging problem. For example, the use of electronic medical records and Hospital Information Systems in improving health care remains fragmented. Similarly, the use of advanced computational tools seamlessly in the biomedical research cycle continues to be minimal.
Due to the computational intensive problems in life sciences, the marriage between the Bioinformatics domain and high performance computing is critical to the advancement of Biosciences. In addition, the problems in this domain tend to be highly parallelizable and deal with large datasets, hence using HPC is a natural fit. The Bioinformatics domain is rich in applications that require extracting useful information from very large and continuously growing sequence of databases. Most methods used for analyzing DNA/Protein sequences are known to be computationally intensive, providing motivation for the use of powerful computational systems with high throughput characteristics.
Moreover, high-throughput wet lab platforms such as next generation sequencing, microarray and mass spectrometry, are producing a huge amount of experimental "omics" data. The increasing availability of omics data poses new challenges to bioinformatics applications that need to face in a semi-automatic way an overwhelming availability of raw data. Main challenges regard: 1) the efficient storage, retrieval and integration of experimental data; 2) their efficient and high-throughput preprocessing and analysis; 3) the building of reproducible "in silico" experiments; 4) the integration of analysis results with pre-existing knowledge usually stored into ontologies.
As the storage, preprocessing and analysis of raw experimental data is becoming the main bottleneck of the analysis pipeline, parallel computing is playing an important role in all steps of the life sciences research pipeline, from raw data management and processing, to data integration and analysis, and to data exploration and visualization. Moreover, Cloud Computing is becoming the key technology to hide the complexity of computing infrastructures, to reduce the cost of the data analysis task, and especially to change the overall business model of biomedical research and health provision.
Considering the complex analysis pipeline of the biomedical research, the bottleneck is more and more moving toward the storage, integration, and analysis of experimental data, as well as their correlation and integration with publicly available data banks In such a scenario, large-scale distributed databases and parallel bioinformatics tools are key tools for organizing and exploring biological and biomedical data with the aim to discover new knowledge in biology and medicine.
In the current Information age, further progress of Medical Sciences requires successful integration with Computational and Information Sciences. The workshop attempts to attract innovative ways of how such integration can be achieved via Bioinformatics and Biomedical Informatics research, particularly in taking advantage of the new advancements in HPC systems. The focus of data analysis and data mining tools in biomedical research highlights the current state of research in the key biomedical research areas such as bioinformatics, medical informatics and biomedical imaging. Addressing performance concerns in managing and accessing medical data, while facilitating the ability to integrate and correlate different biomedical databases remains an outstanding problem in biomedical research. The amount of available biomedical data continues to grow in an exponential rate; however, the impact of utilizing such resources remains minimal. The development of innovative tools in HPC environments to integrate, analyze and mine such data sources is a key step towards achieving large impact levels.
The workshop focuses on topics related to the utilization of HPC systems and new models of parallel computing and cloud computing in problems related to Biomedical Informatics and Life Sciences, along with the use of data integration and data mining tools to support biomedical research and Health Care.
The BILIS Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

Fourth International Workshop on
Heterogeneous High-performance Reconfigurable Computing (H^2RC)
==========================================================================
Held in conjunction with Supercomputing 2018
Sunday Morning, November 11, 2018
Dallas, TX
http://h2rc.cse.sc.edu
==========================================================================
Submission Deadline:
August 15, 2018 (1 to 4 page extended abstracts)
==========================================================================
As conventional von-Neumann architectures are suffering from rising
power densities, we are facing an era with power, energy efficiency, and
cooling as first-class constraints for scalable HPC. FPGAs can tailor
the hardware to the application, avoiding overheads and achieving higher
hardware efficiency than general-purpose architectures. Leading FPGA
manufacturers have recently made a concerted effort to provide a range
of higher-level, easier to use high-level programming models for FPGAs.
Such initiatives are already stimulating new interest within the HPC
community around the potential advantages of FPGAs over other
architectures. With this in mind, this workshop, now its fourth year,
brings together HPC and heterogeneous-computing researchers to
demonstrate and share experiences on how newly-available high-level
programming models, including OpenCL, are already empowering HPC
software developers to directly leverage FPGAs, and to identify future
opportunities and needs for research in this area.
==========================================================================
Topics
==========================================================================
Submissions are solicited that explore the state of the art in the use
of FPGAs in heterogeneous high-performance compute architectures and, at
a system level, in data centers and supercomputers. FPGAs may be
considered from either or both the distributed, parallel and composable
fabric of compute elements or from their dynamic reconfigurability. We
particularly encourage submissions which focus on the mapping of
algorithms and applications to heterogeneous FPGA-based systems as well
as the overall impact of such architectures on the compute capacity,
cost, power efficiency, and overall computational capabilities of data
centers and supercomputers. A non-comprehensive list of potential
topics of interest is given below:
1. FPGAs in the cloud and data center
2. Cloud and data center applications
3. Leveraging reconfigurability
4. Benchmarks
5. Implementation studies
6. Programming languages, tools, and frameworks
7. Future-gazing
8. Community building
==========================================================================
Special theme for 2018
==========================================================================
For this year's workshop we especially encourage the submission of
papers on the topic of FPGA-based support for non-volatile memory and
near-memory computing.
Non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies such as Flash and Phase-Change
memory potentially facilitate shared storage in the microsecond regime.
In emerging systems, NVM may serve as a new level of memory hierarchy or
as a networked resource. To this end, early work in developing both
system-level interfaces to NVM (such as NVMe) and network-level
interfaces to NVM (such as RDMA over Converged Ethernet 2) rely heavily
on FPGAs as low-latency intermediaries.
==========================================================================
Prospective authors are invited to submit relevant contributions as an
extended abstract in ACM SIG Proceedings format of up to four pages.
You can submit your contribution(s) through a link on the H2RC website:
http://h2rc.cse.sc.edu
The authors of accepted papers will be invited to present their work at
the workshop.

********** WORKS 2018 Workshop **********
Workflows in Support of Large-Scale Science Workshop
http://works.cs.cardiff.ac.uk/
Sunday 11 November 2018, Dallas, TX.
Held in conjunction with SC18, http://sc18.supercomputing.org/
Paper submission deadline: 13 August 2018
*****************************************
Call For Papers
Data-intensive workflows (a.k.a. scientific workflows) are routinely used in
most scientific disciplines today, especially in the context of
high-performance, parallel and distributed computing. They provide a
systematic way of describing a complex scientific process and rely on
sophisticated workflow management systems to execute on a variety of
parallel and distributed resources. With the dramatic increase of raw data
volume in every domain, they play an even more critical role to assist
scientists in organizing and processing their data and to leverage HPC or
HTC resources, being at the interface between end-users and computing
infrastructures.
This workshop focuses on the many facets of data-intensive workflow
management systems, ranging from actual execution to service management and
the coordination and optimization of data, service and job dependencies. The
workshop covers a broad range of issues in the scientific workflow lifecycle
that include: data-intensive workflows representation and enactment;
designing workflow composition interfaces; workflow mapping techniques to
optimize the execution of the workflow for different infrastructures;
workflow enactment engines that need to deal with failures in the
application and execution environment; and a number of computer science
problems related to scientific workflows such as semantic technologies,
compiler methods, scheduling and fault detection and tolerance.
The topics of the workshop include but are not limited to:
Big Data analytics workflows
Data-driven workflow processing (including stream-based workflows)
Workflow composition, tools, and languages
Workflow execution in distributed environments (including HPC, clouds, and
grids)
Reproducible computational research using workflows
Dynamic data dependent workflow systems solutions
Exascale computing with workflows
In Situ Data Analytics Workflows
Interactive workflows (including workflow steering)
Workflow fault-tolerance and recovery techniques
Workflow user environments, including portals
Workflow applications and their requirements
Adaptive workflows
Workflow optimizations (including scheduling and energy efficiency)
Performance analysis of workflows
Workflow debugging
Workflow provenance
Workflows in constrained environments e.g. IoT, Edge computing, etc.

AIMS AND SCOPE
The development of models through which computers can simulate the
evolution of artificial and natural systems is fundamental for the
advancement of Science. In the last decades, the increasing power of
computers has allowed to considerably extend the application of computing
methodologies in research and industry, but also to the quantitative study
of complex phenomena. This has permitted a broad application of numerical
methods for differential equation systems (e.g., FEM, FDM, etc.) on one
hand, and the application of alternative computational paradigms, such as
Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm Intelligence,
etc., on the other. These latter have demonstrated their effectiveness for
modelling purposes when traditional simulation methodologies have proven to
be impracticable.
Following the success of our past HPCMS workshops we are glad to invite you
to our sixth edition which will take place in Pavia (Italy).
An important mission of the HPCMS Workshop is to provide a platform for a
multidisciplinary community composed of scholars, researchers, developers,
educators, practitioners and experts from world leading Universities,
Institutions, Agencies and Companies in Computational Science, and thus in
the High Performance Computing for Modelling and Simulation field.
HPCMS intent is to offer an opportunity to express and confront views on
trends, challenges, and state-of-the art in diverse application fields,
such as engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, medicine,
ecology, sociology, traffic control, economy, etc.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- High-performance computing in computational science: intra-disciplinary
and multi-disciplinary research applications
- Complex systems modelling and simulation
- Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm
Intelligence implementations
- Integrated approach to optimization and simulation
- MPI, OpenMP, GPGPU applications in Computational Science
- Optimization algorithms, modelling techniques related to optimization in
Computational Science
- High-performance Software developed to solve science (e.g., biological,
physical, and social), engineering, medicine, and humanities problems
- Hardware approaches of high performance computing in modeling and
simulation

CALL FOR THE 12TH IEEE INTERNATIONAL SCALABLE COMPUTING CHALLENGE (SCALE
2019)
The 12th IEEE International Scalable Computing Challenge (SCALE 2019) is
sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Scalable
Computing (TCSC). The objective of the SCALE Challenge is to highlight
and showcase real-world problem solving using computing that scales.
Effective solutions to many scientific and engineering problems require
applications that can scale. There are different dimensions to
application scalability. For example, applications can scale-up to a
large number of cores on a compute unit, scale-out to utilize multiple
distinct compute units, or exhibit elastic scaling to acquire and
release resources on-demand, based on current need. The result may be an
application that can solve a larger problem, increase throughput, and/or
reduce execution time. In order to scale, applications need to be
supported by tools, middleware, software cyber-infrastructure,
programming frameworks, computing infrastructure, etc. The SCALE
Challenge is concerned with advances in application development and
their supporting infrastructure to enable scaling. All papers presented
at the SCALE challenge and selected by the Scale Challenge Committee of
IEEE/ACM CCGrid 2019 will be submitted to IEEE Xplore for publication
and EI indexing.
Proposal submission: 31 Jan 2019
