4th Workshop on Heterogeneous High-performance Reconfigurable Computing (H2RC 2018) at SC18: Extended abstracts due Aug. 15
by Jason D. Bakos 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

========================================================================== ** Call for Papers ** ========================================================================== 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. ========================================================================== Important dates: Submission Deadline: August 15, 2018 Acceptance Notification: September 18, 2018 Camera-ready Manuscripts Due: October 15, 2018 Workshop Date: November 11, 2018 ========================================================================== Workshop Format H2RC is a half-day Sunday workshop. It will be comprised of: -- Keynote and invited talks -- Talks selected among paper submissions ========================================================================== Organizing Committee Workshop Organizers: Michaela Blott, Xilinx Franck Cappello, Argonne National Lab Torsten Hoefler, ETH Zurich Jason D. Bakos, University of South Carolina ========================================================================== -- Jason D. Bakos, Ph.D. Professor Dept. of Computer Science and Engineering Univ. of South Carolina 301 Main St., Suite 3A01L Columbia, SC 29208 803-777-8627 (voice), 803-777-3767 (fax) http://www.cse.sc.edu/~jbakos jbakos(a)cse.sc.edu
