The Second International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM 2018)
by Massimo Cafaro 08 Feb '18

08 Feb '18

The Second International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM 2018) http://sara.unisalento.it/~cafaro/WPDM2018/ CALL FOR PAPERS As part of The 18th International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA 2018), http://www.iccsa.org July 2 - 5 2018, Melbourne, Australia Submission Deadline: March 8, 2018 SPECIAL ISSUE Selected extended versions of workshop papers will be invited to a Special Issue to appear in the Algorithms journal (see http://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/Parallel_Distributed_…) SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES The Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining is an international forum which brings together researchers and practitioners working on different high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms, enabling novel applications. Data mining techniques and algorithms to process huge amount of data in order to extract useful and interesting information have become popular in many different contexts. Algorithms are required to make sense of data automatically and in efficient ways. Nonetheless, even though sequential computer systems performance is improving, they are not suitable to keep up with the increase in the demand for data mining applications and the data size. Moreover, the main memory of sequential systems may not be enough to hold all the data related to current applications. Therefore, there is an increasing interest in the design and implementation of parallel data mining algorithms. On parallel computers, by exploiting the vast aggregate main memory and processing power of processors and accelerators, parallel algorithms can easily address both the running time and memory requirement issues. Anyway, parallelizing existing algorithms in order to achieve good performance and scalability with regard to massive datasets is not trivial. Indeed, it is of paramount importance a good data organization and decomposition strategy in order to balance the workload while minimizing data dependences. Another concern is related to minimizing synchronization and communication overhead. Finally, I/O costs should be minimized as well. The Workshop will allow exchanging ideas and results related to on-going research, focusing on high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms and applications. Creating breakthrough parallel algorithms for high-performance data mining applications requires addressing several key computing problems which may lead to novel solutions and new insights in interdisciplinary applications. The focus of the workshop is on all forms of advances in high-performance data mining algorithms and applications, and related topics. The WPDM Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following: - Parallel data mining algorithms using MPI and/or OpenMP - Parallel data mining algorithms targeting GPUs and many-cores accelerators - Parallel data mining applications exploiting FPGA - Distributed data mining algorithms - Benchmarking and performance studies of high-performance data mining applications - Novel programming paradigms to support high-performance computing for data mining - Performance models for high-performance data mining applications and middleware - Programming models, tools, and environments for high-performance computing in data mining - Caching, streaming, pipelining, and other optimization techniques for data management in high-performance computing for data mining INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above topics.

Authors are invited to submit research and application papers according the following guidelines: two columns, single-spaced, including figures and references, using 10 pt fonts and number each page. For the main conference as well as the workshops submission papers are classified into 3 categorizes representing original, previously unpublished work: -full paper (10 pages) -short paper (6 pages) -workshop paper (8 pages, a maximum of 10 pages is tolerated) Formating Instructions / template: Please read the template instructions carefully before submitting a paper, they can be found here (http://www.acm.org/publications/article-templates/proceedings-template.html/). Papers submitted to ARES 2018 have to use the SigConf template! Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, presentation and clarity of exposition. Simultaneous submission of the same work to multiple venues, submission of previously published work, or plagiarism constitutes dishonesty or fraud. ARES, like other scientific and technical conferences and journals, prohibits these practices and may take action against authors who have committed them. Contact author must provide the following information at the ARES conference system: paper title, authors' names, affiliations, postal address, phone, fax, and e-mail address of the author(s), about 200-250 word abstract, and about five keywords. Accepted papers will be given guidelines in preparing and submitting the final manuscript(s) together with the notification of acceptance. Double blind review: ARES requires anonymized submissions - please make sure that submitted papers contain no author names or obvious self-references. Submission of a paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and present the paper in the conference. The ARES submission system (EasyChair) is available here: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ares2018 Publishing preprints to Arxiv or other, open repositories is allowed prior to the notification of ARES and does not violate the requirement for novelty. Reviewers will be asked to not search for and ignore preprints that can deanonymize blinded submission. Important Note: To avoid accepting papers for ARES 2018 which are not presenting original work your paper will be plagiarism checked by PlagScan Plagarism Check. If you don't want your paper to be checked automatically please contact us. ************ PROGRAM COMMITTEE ************ Isaac Agudo Ruiz, University of Malaga, Spain Todd R.
