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.

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 at PDP (since 2014),
we are glad to invite you to our seventh edition which will take place
in Valladolid (Spain).
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

applications and systems. This special session focuses on research work
aimed at benchmarking modern parallel and distributed systems for
addressing a number of real world problems. As such, contributions
concerning the definition of new open platforms, new benchmarks to match
modern architectural evolutions, studies on the aspects of benchmarking
different aspects of systems (from raw runtime performance to energy
consumption to energy consumed per data movement) and mathematical
foundations of benchmarking are sought.

CALL FOR PAPERS & PARTICIPATION
As part of
The 18th International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation (HPCS 2020)
http://hpcs2020.cisedu.info/ or http://conf.cisedu.info/rp/hpcs20

SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Large parallel systems have become mainstream of both commercial and scientific computing. At the same time, high performance computing (HPC) has witnessed a revolution that has turned it into a jungle populated by very different types of parallel computing systems exploiting parallelism at different levels. They include multi- and many-core CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, TPUs or heterogeneous systems joining together several of those types of devices. Shared-memory systems with hundreds of processors are commercially available, while a new generation of massively parallel systems have pushed the limits of scalability to unprecedented levels. Designing and understanding these systems requires new simulation and modeling approaches that can be effective at those scales. New software- and hardware-based simulation techniques have been developed to cope with those challenges.
The goal of this workshop is to promote the discussion and presentation of new research and development in the area of simulation and modeling of large parallel and distributed systems as well as simulation and modeling of applications that use HPC systems. We encourage original contributions from work on the following areas:
MSPDS Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to the following areas:
* Simulation of Exascale Systems
* Simulation of Interconnection Architectures and Technologies
* Workload Characterization to help Simulation Studies
* Parallel and Distributed Simulators
* Hardware accelerators for simulating parallel systems
* Bootstrapping: Using a current generation system to design the next generation
* Modeling and simulation at the data centers level
* Use of reconfigurable logic for simulation of parallel systems
* Parallel and Distributed Discrete-Event Simulation
* Machine learning for developing models of parallel systems
* New and novel approaches to modeling and simulation of large and complex systems
* Modeling techniques, including reuse of models, modeling languages, agent-based M&S, and spatially explicit M&S
* M&S to manage and/or optimize operational systems and methodological challenges arising from these applications such as online simulation, symbiotic simulation, dynamic data-driven, real-time and embedded simulation, and emulation of real systems.
* Simulation of breaking technologies (e.g. quantum computing, wireless photonics, etc)
* Simulation and modeling of applications that use HPC systems
* Modeling of HPC systems and components
* Modeling in various domains of knowledge using HPC and parallel systems and algorithms, including (but not limited to) parallel models of complex systems, multiscale models, multi-agent systems, P-systems models, cellular automata and stencil computation, neuromorphic models, etc.
* Modeling and Evaluation Methods and Studies
