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 INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above and other topics related to modeling and simulation of high performance parallel and distributed computing systems and applications.

[CFP] IA^3 2020 - NEW DEADLINE SEPTEMBER 10th
by Tumeo, Antonino 29 Aug '20

29 Aug '20

[Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message.] !!!!!!!!! NEWS: DEADLINE EXTENDED TO SEPTEMBER 10th !!!!!!!! IA^3 2020 10th Workshop on Irregular Applications: Architectures and Algorithms http://hpc.pnl.gov/IA3 November 11, 2020 Virtual Workshop In conjunction with SC20 Sponsored by IEEE TCHPC -------------------- Call for Papers -------------------- Irregular applications occur in many subject matters. While inherently parallel, they exhibit highly variable execution performance at a local level due to unpredictable memory access patterns and/or network transfers, divergent control structures, and data imbalances. Moreover, they often require fine-grain synchronization and communication on large-data structures such as graphs, trees, unstructured grids, sparse matrices, deep nets, tables, and their combinations (such as, for example, attributed graphs). They have a significant degree of latent parallelism, which however is difficult to exploit due to their complex behavior. Current high performance architectures rely on data locality and regular computation to reduce access latencies, and often do not cope well with the requirements of these applications. Furthermore, irregular applications are difficult to scale on current supercomputing machines, due to their limits in fine-grained synchronization and small data transfers. Irregular applications pertain both to well established and emerging fields, such as machine learning, social network analysis, bioinformatics, semantic graph databases, Computer Aided Design (CAD), and computer security. Many of these application areas also process massive sets of unstructured data, which keep growing exponentially. Emerging supercomputing applications are moving towards a convergence of scientific simulation, data analytics, and learning algorithms, mixed in various ways. Addressing the issues of irregular applications on current and future architectures will become critical to solve the challenges in science and data analysis of the next few years. This workshop seeks to explore solutions for supporting efficient execution of irregular applications in the form of new features at the level of the micro- and system-architecture, network, languages and libraries, runtimes, compilers, analysis, algorithms. Topics of interest, of both theoretical and practical significance, include but are not limited to: - Micro- and System-architectures, including multi- and many-core designs, heterogeneous processors, accelerators (GPUs, vector processors, Automata processor), reconfigurable (coarse grained reconfigurable and FPGA designs) and custom processors - Network architectures and interconnect (including high-radix networks, optical interconnects) - Novel memory architectures and designs (including processors-in memory) - Impact of new computing paradigms on irregular workloads (including neuromorphic processors and quantum computing) - Modeling, simulation and evaluation of novel architectures with irregular workloads - Innovative algorithmic techniques - Combinatorial algorithms (graph algorithms, sparse linear algebra, etc.) - Impact of irregularity on machine learning approaches - Parallelization techniques and data structures for irregular workloads - Data structures combining regular and irregular computations (e.g., attributed graphs) - Approaches for managing massive unstructured datasets (including streaming data) - Languages and programming models for irregular workloads - Library and runtime support for irregular workloads - Compiler and analysis techniques for irregular workloads - High performance data analytics applications (including graph databases and solutions that combine graph algorithms with machine learning) - Applications that integrate scientific simulation, data analytics, and learning, and require efficient execution of irregular workloads Besides regular papers, papers describing work-in-progress or incomplete but sound, innovative ideas related to the workshop theme are also encouraged. We solicit both 8-page regular papers and 4-page position papers. Authors of exciting but not mature enough regular papers may be offered the option of a short 4-page paper and related short presentation. -------------------- Important Dates -------------------- Abstract Submission: September 10, 2020 (AoE) Position or Regular Paper Submission: September 10, 2020 (AoE) Notification: September 28, 2020 Artifact Evaluation: September 28, 2020 - October 10, 2020 Camera-ready: October 10, 2020 Workshop: November 11, 2020 -------------------- Submissions -------------------- Submission site: https://submissions.supercomputing.org Submitted manuscripts may not exceed eight (8) pages in length for regular papers and four (4) pages for position papers (excluding references).

The templates are available at: http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE Digital Library through IEEE TCHPC. -------------------- Artifact Description & Evaluation -------------------- This edition of the workshop invites authors of regular papers to follow a reproducibility initiative like the main SC Conference, with specific appendices for the Artifact Description (AD) and the Artifact Evaluation (AE). Please refer to the SC reproducibility page for further details on the rationale behind AD and AE: https://sc20.supercomputing.org/submit/transparency-reproducibility-initiat… Authors of regular papers will be able to use up to one (1) additional page to provide an Artifact Description (AD) Appendix, describing the details of their software environments and computational experiments to the extent that an independent person could replicate their results. Note that differently from the main conferene, this additional page is voluntary (not mandatory - i.e., if a paper has no computational results, do not attach it) for the workshop, and must focus only on details on software environments and methods to execute the experiments. It should not add details on the proposed technical approaches. Additionally, authors of accepted regular papers will be invited to formally submit their supporting materials to the Artifact Evaluation (AE) process. The process is voluntary, but authors that will participate in the AE will be eligible for the Best Paper Award of the workshop. Supporting materials for the AE include access to the actual software artifact, shared publicly (for example, through the CK - Collective Knowledge - https://github.com/ctuning/ck format), and two (2) further additional pages of the paper that details how to reproduce the results of the paper. For details on how to submit supporting materials to the AE process, please refer to: http://ctuning.org/ae/submission.html. Authors participating in the AE will receive an assessment of the artifact, and the related badge on their paper. For any additional question on the AD and the AE please contact the Artifact Evaluation Chair, Biagio Cosenza, at bcosenza(a)unisa.it. -------------------- Special Issue -------------------- Authors of papers accepted to the workshop will also be invited to submit extended version of their papers to a Special Issue of the journal of Parallel Computing (ParCO) on Hardware/Software Co-design for Sparse and Irregular Applications.

CFP HiPar20: submission deadline. extended to Sept. 7th
by Rizzi, Francesco NMN 28 Aug '20

28 Aug '20

--- Submission deadline extended to Sept. 7th --- ******************************************************************** Call for Participation Workshop on Hierarchical Parallelism for Exascale Computing ---HiPar20--- Held in conjunction with SC20 - virtual event In cooperation with: IEEE and TCHPC. www.hipar.net ******************************************************************** ================================ Summary ================================ High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms are evolving towards having fewer but more powerful nodes, driven by the increasing number of physical cores in multiple sockets and accelerators. The boundary between nodes and networks is starting to blur, with some nodes now containing tens of compute elements and memory sub-systems connected via a memory fabric. The immediate consequence is an increase in complexity due to ever more complex architectures (e.g., memory hierarchies), novel accelerator designs, and energy constraints. Spurred largely by this trend, hierarchical parallelism is gaining momentum. This approach embraces, rather than avoiding, the intrinsic complexity of current and future HPC systems by exploiting parallelism at all levels: compute, memory and network. This workshop focuses on hierarchical parallelism. It aims to bring together application, hardware, and software practitioners proposing new strategies to fully exploit computational hierarchies, and examples to illustrate their benefits to achieve extreme scale parallelism. ================================ Scope and Aims ================================ HiPar20 is designed to showcase new studies, approaches, and cutting-edge ideas on hierarchical parallelism for extreme-scale computing. We welcome papers and talks from the HPC community addressing the use of emerging architectures — focusing particularly on those characterized by fewer but more powerful nodes as well as systems with hierarchical network with tiered communication semantics. Specifically, the emphasis is on the design, implementation, and application of programming models for multi-level parallelism, including abstractions for hierarchical memory access, heterogeneity, multi-threading, vectorization, and energy efficiency, as well as scalability and performance studies thereof. Of particular interest are models addressing these concerns portably: providing ease of programming and maintaining performance in the presence of varied accelerators, hardware configurations, and execution models. Studies that explore the merits of specific approaches to addressing these concerns, such as generic programming or domain specific languages, are also in scope. The workshop is not limited to the traditional HPC software community. As one example, another key topic is the use of hierarchical parallelism in dealing with the challenges arising in machine learning due to the growing importance of this field, the large scale of systems tackled in that area, and the increasing interest from more traditional HPC areas. A goal of HiPar20 is to highlight not just success stories but also discuss drawbacks and challenges. HiPar20 welcomes HPC practitioners from all areas, ranging from hardware and compiler experts to algorithms and software developers, to present and discuss the state of the art in emerging approaches to utilize multi-level parallelism for extreme scale computing. ================================ Topics ================================ Submissions are encouraged in, but not limited to the following areas: * Hierarchical work scheduling and execution; * Hardware, software, and algorithmic advances for efficient use of memory hierarchies, multi-threading and vectorization; * Efficient use of nested parallelism, for example CUDA dynamic parallelism, for large scale simulations; * Programming heterogeneous nodes; * Leading-edge programming models, for example fully distributed task-based models and hybrid MPI+X, with X representing shared memory parallelism via threads, vectorization, tasking or parallel loop constructs. * Implementations of algorithms that are natural fits for nested work (for example approaches that use recursion); * Challenges and successes in managing computing hierarchies; * Examples demonstrating effective use of the combination of inter-node and intra-node parallelism; * Novel approaches leveraging asynchronous execution to maximize efficiency; * Challenges and successes of porting of existing applications to many-core and heterogeneous platforms; * Recent developments in compiler optimizations for emerging architectures; * Applications of hierarchical programming models from emerging AI fields, for example deep learning and extreme-scale data analytics. ================================ Submission Guidelines ================================ We solicit submissions in the following categories: (a) Regular research papers: Intended for submissions describing original work and ideas that have not appeared in another conference or journal, and are not currently under review for any other conference or journal. Regular papers must be at least (6) and must not exceed (10) letter size pages (U.S. letter – 8.5"x11"). Accepted regular papers will be published in the workshop proceedings in cooperation with IEEE TCHPC. (b) Short papers: Intended for material that is not mature enough for a full paper, to present novel, interesting ideas or preliminary results that will be formally submitted elsewhere. Short papers must not exceed four (4) pages. Short papers will NOT be included in the proceedings. Please note that: - The page limits above only apply to the core text, content-related appendices, and figures. References and reproducibility appendix do not count against the page limit. - When deciding between submissions with comparable evaluations, priority will be given to those with higher quality of presentation and whose focus relates more directly to the workshop themes. - Papers must be submitted electronically at https://submissions.supercomputing.org/ and must follow the IEEE format: www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html ================================ Reproducibility Initiative ================================ HiPar20 follows the SC20 reproducibility and transparency initiative. The SC20 details can be found at: https://sc20.supercomputing.org/submit/transparency-reproducibility-initiat…. HiPar20 requires all submission to include an Artifact Description (AD) Appendix. Note that the AD will be auto-generated from author responses to a form embedded in the online submission system. The Artifact Evaluation (AE) remains optional. We also encourage authors to follow the transparency initiative for two reasons: (a) it helps the authors themselves with the actual writing and structuring of the paper to express the research process; (b) it helps readers understand the thinking process used by the authors to plan, obtain and explain their results. ================================ HiPar20 will be virtual ================================ SCC20 will be fully virtual: https://sc20.supercomputing.org/2020/07/27/sc20-virtual-event-announced-by-… Please refer to our website www.hipar.net for latest updates. ================================ Important dates ================================ Submission Deadline: September 7th, 2020 (AoE) Author Notification: September 23, 2020 Camera Ready: October 5, 2020 Final Program: October 9, 2020 Virtual Workshop Date: November 11, 2020 (10am-6.30pm EST) ================================ Chairs and Committees ================================ Workshop chair: - Francesco Rizzi NexGen Analytics Organizing Committee: - D.S.
