Fifth International Workshop on
Heterogeneous High-performance Reconfigurable Computing (H^2RC 2019)
==========================================================================
Held in conjunction with Supercomputing 2019
and
In cooperation with the
IEEE Technical Consortium on High Performance Computing (TCHPC)
==========================================================================
Sunday, November 17, 2019 (ALL DAY)
Denver, CO
http://h2rc.cse.sc.edu
==========================================================================
Submission Deadline:
August 15, 2019 (4- and 8- page papers)
Accepted 8-page manuscripts published/archived by IEEE
(See below for descriptions of submission tracks.)
==========================================================================
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. Much of the
work in FPGA-based deep learning is built on these frameworks.
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 in its fifth 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.
==========================================================================
Submission Tracks and Contribution Selection:
==========================================================================
Submissions are solicited for two tracks:
Track 1: Full-length papers (8 pages) for 25-minute oral
presentation and publication in proceedings archived by IEEE TCHPC.
Track 2: Extended abstracts (4 pages) for 15-minute oral presentation
without publication.
Track 1 is targeted at technical papers containing a high level of
implementation detail and analysis discussion of experimental results.
Track 1 is suited for members of the academic and national lab community who
prefer to have their work peer-reviewed, indexed and archived by IEEE.
Track 2 is targeted at industrial contributions that describe new
capabilities and opportunities offered by emerging technologies and products,
or work in progress presentations by the academic and national lab
community. The emphasis of this track is to initiate a discussion with the
audience.
All submissions are reviewed and evaluated by at least three members of our
technical program committee. From the TPC evaluation of each
submission, the organizing committee will select papers for presentation
based on a criteria that equally weighs scientific merit and level of interest and
relevance to the HPC community.
==========================================================================
Topics:
==========================================================================
1. Improvement of performance or efficiency of HPC or data center applications with
FPGAs
2. System integration of FPGAs in clouds and HPC systems
3. Leveraging reconfigurability
4. Benchmarks
6. Programming languages, tools, and frameworks
7. Future-gazing

********** WORKS 2019 Workshop**********
14th Workflows in Support of Large-Scale Science Workshop
http://works.cs.cardiff.ac.uk/
Sunday 17 November 2019, Denver, CO
Held in conjunction with SC19, http://sc19.supercomputing.org/
Paper submission deadline: 5 August 2019
*****************************************
Call For Papers
Data-intensive Workflows (a.k.a. scientific workflows) are routinely
used in most scientific disciplines today, especially in the context of
parallel and distributed computing. Workflows provide a systematic way
of describing the analysis and rely on workflow management systems to
execute the complex analyses on a variety of distributed resources. They
are at the interface between end-users and computing infrastructures.
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, e.g.,
workflows played an important role in the discovery of Gravitational Waves.
This workshop focuses on the many facets of data-intensive workflow
management systems, ranging from job execution to service management and
the coordination of data, service and job dependencies. The workshop
therefore 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 that may optimize the execution of the workflow; 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,
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
