[CFP] IA^3 2017 - Seventh SC Workshop on Irregular Applications: Architectures and Algorithms
by Tumeo, Antonino 24 Jul '17

24 Jul '17

[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] IA^3 2017 Seventh Workshop on Irregular Applications: Architectures and Algorithms http://hpc.pnl.gov/IA3/ November 13, 2017 In conjunction with SC17 In collaboration with ACM SIGHPC 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, tables, sparse matrices, deep nets, 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. 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 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. Artifact Evaluation For this edition of IA3, authors of accepted regular papers will be invited to formally submit their supporting materials to the Artifact Evaluation process, similarly to the process followed for SC17.

CFP-10th IEEE Int. Conf. on Service Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2017)
by Anna Kobusińska 21 Jul '17

21 Jul '17

Call For Papers - IEEE SOCA 2017 in Kanazawa, Japan, November 22-25, 2017 The 10 th IEEE International Conference on Service Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2017) http://conferences.computer.org/soca Kanazawa, Japan, November 22-25, 2017 --------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------------------- Service-oriented computing (SOC) is considered today a key enabler for the development of robust and high-quality intelligent Internet-scale distributed applications. Extensive research and development in the past few years has pushed SOC technology into state-of-the-art applications in emerging areas such as Cloud computing, Internet-of-Things (IoT), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs), Mobile-Edge Computing, Social computing as well as mobile and enterprise systems. However, many of the critical components on building reliable, robust, and user-centric, cloud-based service-oriented architecture applications and systems are still open for research. Hence, it is time to face new service-oriented architecture (SOA) research opportunities by addressing new research challenges on emerging applications domains like smart cities, smart logistics, smart factories and e-Health, just to mention a few. Many of the service components are deployed on resource-limited embedded systems and are performance sensitive; others are deployed on cloud servers providing highly parallel services and on edge servers in the middle of resource-limited systems and high-end servers. Edge servers and clouds are connected through various types of networks, including emerging network function virtualization services. These components are part of complex applications and systems that span multiple execution environments. Their capabilities are increasingly being managed and (re)configured via emerging software-defined and elasticity mechanisms. In addition, they have to interact with humans in order to obtain useful human-sensing data and solve complex problems. Thus, on the one hand, SOC may provide effective solutions for managing the ever-increasing complexity while meeting the challenging requirements of services on largely distributed, heterogeneous and dynamic resource environments. On the other hand, the exploitation of emerging trends in such environments to build SOC applications and systems for large-scale service-based systems is an open research challenge. The 2017 IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2017 http://conferences.computer.org/soca/) provides an international forum for researchers from multiple disciplines to exchange and share their experiences, ideas, and latest research results on all aspects of service- oriented computing. The conference includes three days of parallel-track program, special-topic workshops, keynotes and tutorials, and panel discussion. We invite submissions of high-quality papers describing fully developed results or ongoing work on the following topics and related areas: -Service-oriented architectures, engineering, and applications -Cloud-based service systems -SOCA in IoT and Cyber-Physical Systems -Service Models and Applications for Mobile-Edge Computing -Service coordination techniques in IoT and cloud environments -SOC-based smart process and workflow management -Configurable, reconfigurable and software-defined service middleware -Data analytics and data services in and for SOC-based systems -IoT and data marketplaces -Smart data and service contracts -Cognitive computing techniques for SOCA -Social computing for and atop SOCA -SOCA development, deployment and testing tools and methodologies -Security and privacy for SOCA -Dependable and trustworthy SOCA -SOCA for smart applications (cities, transportation systems, factories, homes and offices, etc.) ------------------------ Important Dates ------------------------ Workshop/Special Session Proposal May 30, 2017 Workshop/Special Session Notification June 15, 2017 Paper Submission Deadline August 10, 2017 Acceptance Notification September 15, 2017 Camera-Ready Submission October 1, 2017 ---------------------------- Paper Format and Submission ---------------------------- We seek for both full and short papers.

You are included in this mailing list based on your participation or interest in a previous HPC conference or other event. The purpose for providing a single mailing list is to allow participants to easily identify such emails, and handle them appropriately. Some options include: 1. If you feel that the number of such emails is too many, filter them to less-frequently-read folders in your email client. 2. Change your subscription to a digest option (https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/hpc-announce) which will consolidate emails sent that week into a single summary email. If you do not remember your password (which is needed to change these options), you can reset it using the "Unsubscribe or Edit Options" button at the bottom of the page. 3. Finally, if you do not wish to receive any emails from hpc-announce, you can unsubscribe from the mailing list (https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/hpc-announce). Once unsubscribed, we guarantee that you will not be added back in through participation in a different HPC related conference or event. You will need to send an email to hpc-announce-owner(a)mcs.anl.gov to be added back on. If you need help with any of the above, please email us at hpc-announce-owner(a)mcs.anl.gov. ********************************************************************************

The 2017 ICDM Workshop on Data Science and Big Data Analytics (DSBDA 2017)
by ICT DataScience 21 Jul '17

21 Jul '17

The 5th ICDM Workshop on Data Science and Big Data Analytics (DSBDA 2017) [http://www.bigdatalab.ac.cn/~dsbda/2017/] In conjunction with The IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM 2017) [http://icdm2017.bigke.org/] New Orleans, USA · November 18, 2017 Introduction ================ Due to the rapid development of IT technology including Internet, Cloud Computing, Mobile Computing, and Internet of Things, as well as the consequent decrease of cost on collecting and storing data, big data has been generated from almost every industry and sector as well as governmental department. The volume of big data often grows exponentially or even in rates that overwhelm the well-known Moore’s Law. Meanwhile, big data has been extended from traditional structured data into semi-structured and completely unstructured data of various types, such as text, image, audio, video, click streams, log files, etc. It is no doubt that big data can offer us unprecedented opportunities. However, it also poses many grand challenges. Due to the massive volume and inherent complexity, it is extremely difficult to store, aggregate, manage, and analyze big data and finally mine valuable information/knowledge from the complex data/information networks. Therefore, in the presence of big data, the theories, models, algorithms and methods of traditional data related fields, such as, data mining, data engineering, machine learning, statistical learning, computer programming, pattern recognition and learning, visualization, uncertainty modeling, and high performance computing etc., become no longer effective and efficient. On the other hand, some data is generated exponentially or super-exponentially in a streaming manner. Therefore, how to delicately analyze and deeply understand big data so as to obtain dynamical and incremental information / knowledge, is a grand challenge. In general, at the era of big data, it is expected to develop new theories, models, algorithms, methods, and paradigms for mining, analyzing, and understanding big data, and even a new inter-discipline, Data Science, for studying the perception, acquisition, transportation, storage, management, analysis, visualization, and applications of big data, and finally implement the transformation from data to knowledge. DSBDA 2017 aims to provide a networking venue that will bring together scientists, researchers, professionals, and practitioners from both industry and academia and from different disciplines (including computer science, social science, network science, etc.) to exchange ideas, discuss solutions, share experiences, promote collaborations, and report state-of-the-art research work on various aspects of data science and big data analytics. Topics ================ The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Data science and data analytics * Acquisition, representation, indexing, storage, and management of big data * Processing, pre-processing, and post-processing of big data * Models, algorithms, and methods for big data mining and understanding * Knowledge discovery and acquisition from big data * Visualizing analytics and organization for big data * Streaming data processing * Context data mining from big Web data * Social computing over big Web data * Industrial and scientific applications of big data * Tools for big data analytics Submissions ================ The page limit of workshop papers is 8 pages in the standard IEEE 2-column format ( http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html), including the bibliography and any possible appendices. All papers must be formatted according to the IEEE Computer Society proceedings manuscript style, following IEEE ICDM 2017 submission guidelines available at http://icdm2017.bigke.org/. Papers should be submitted in PDF format, electronically, using the CyberChair submission system: https://wi-lab.com/cyberchair/2017/icdm17/scripts/submit.php?subarea=SP04&u… . Note that all accepted papers will be included in the IEEE ICDM 2017 Workshops Proceedings volume published by IEEE Computer Society Press, and will also be included in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. The workshop proceedings will be in a CD separated from the CD of the main conference. The CD is produced by IEEE Conference Publishing Services (CPS). Therefore, papers must not have been accepted for publication elsewhere or be under review for another workshop, conferences or journals. Important Dates ================ Submissions Due Date: August 7, 2017 Notifications of Acceptance: September 7, 2017 Camera-Ready Deadline: September 15, 2017 Workshop Date: November 18, 2017 Steering Committee =================== Prof. Benjamin W.

CFP: 3rd Workshop on Heterogeneous High-performance Reconfigurable Computing (H2RC 2017) at SC17: Extended abstracts due Sept. 1
by Jason D. Bakos 19 Jul '17

19 Jul '17

========================================================================== ** Call for Papers ** ========================================================================== Third International Workshop on Heterogeneous High-performance Reconfigurable Computing (H2RC 2017) Held in conjunction with Supercomputing 2017 Friday Morning, November 17, 2017 Denver, CO http://h2rc.cse.sc.edu ========================================================================== Submission Deadline: September 1, 2017 (one 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 in its third year, brings together HPC and heterogeneous-computing researchers to demonstrate and share experiences on legacy and new high-level programming models, optimizations specific to scientific computing and data analytics, tools for performance/energy improvements, FPGA computing in the cloud, and popular applications for reconfigurable computing such as machine learning and big data. ========================================================================== Submissions (one page extended abstract): Submissions are solicited that explore the state of the art in the use of FPGAs in heterogeneous high-performance computing 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. Submissions may report on theoretical or applied research, implementation case studies, benchmarks, standards, or any other area that promises to make a significant contribution to our understanding of heterogeneous high-performance reconfigurable computing and will help to shape future research and implementations in this domain. A non-comprehensive list of potential topics of interest is given below: 1. FPGAs in Supercomputer, Cloud and Data Center: FPGAs in relation to challenges to Cloud/Data Center/Supercomputing posed by the end of Dennard scaling 2. Supercomputing, Cloud and Data Center Applications: Exploiting FPGA compute fabric to implement critical cloud/HPC applications 3. Leveraging Reconfigurability: Using reconfigurability for new approaches to algorithms used in cloud/HPC applications 4. Benchmarks: Compute performance and/or power and cost efficiency for cloud/HPC with heterogeneous architectures using FPGAs 5. Implementation Studies: Heterogenous Hardware and Management Infrastructure 6. Programming Languages/Runtimes/OS/Tools/Frameworks for Heterogeneous High Performance Reconfigurable Computing 7. Future-gazing: New Applications/The Cloud Enabled by Heterogeneous High Performance Reconfigurable Computing, Evolution of Computer Architecture in relation to Heterogeneous High Performance Reconfigurable Computing 8. Community building: Standards, consortium activity, open source, education, initiatives to enable and grow Heterogeneous High Performance Reconfigurable Computing Prospective authors are invited to submit original and unpublished contributions as a ONE PAGE EXTENDED ABSTRACT in ACM SIG Proceedings format. ========================================================================== You can submit your contribution(s) through a link on the H2RC website: http://h2rc.cse.sc.edu ========================================================================== Important dates: Submission Deadline: September 1, 2017 Acceptance Notification: October 15, 2017 Camera-ready Manuscripts Due: November 4, 2017 Workshop Date: November 17, 2017 ========================================================================== Workshop Format: H2RC is a half-day Friday workshop. It will be comprised of Keynote and invited talks and talks selected from paper submissions. ========================================================================== Organizing Committee: Workshop Organizers: Michaela Blott, Xilinx Franck Cappello, Argonne National Lab Torsten Hoefler, ETH Zurich Jason D.
