CFP PDSEC-22 Workshop -- held in conjunction with IPDPS22
by Shontz, Suzanne Michelle 06 Dec '21

06 Dec '21

(apologies for cross-postings) The 23nd IEEE International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Scientific and Engineering Computing (PDSEC-22) (http://www.ieee-tcsc.org/2022/pdsec/) will be held on May 30, 2022 in Lyon, France in conjunction with IPDPS 2022. Deadline: PDSEC-22 deadline: 21 Jan 2022 (AoE) Scope and Interests: The technological trends in HPC system evolution indicates an increasing burden placed on application developers due to themanagement of the unprecedented complexity levels of hardware and its associated performance characteristics. Many existing scientific applications codes are unlikely to perform well on future systems without major modifications or even complete rewrites. In the future, it will be necessary to utilize, in concert, many characteristics such as multiple levels of parallelism, many lightweight cores, complex memory hierarchies, novel I/O technology, power capping, system-wide temporal/spatial performance heterogeneity and reliability concerns. The parallel and distributed computing (PDC) community has developed new programming models, algorithms, libraries and tools to meet these challenges to accommodate productive code development and effective system use. However, the scientific application community still needs to identify the benefit through practical evaluations. Thus, the focus of this workshop is on methodologies and experiences used in scientific and engineering applications and algorithms to achieve sustainable code development for better productivity, application performance and reliability.

CfP - Ada Developer Room at FOSDEM 2022, online
by Dirk.Craeynest＠cs.kuleuven.be 05 Dec '21

05 Dec '21

----------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Presentations 11th Ada Developer Room at FOSDEM 2022 Sunday 6 February 2022, Online, Everywhere www.cs.kuleuven.be/~dirk/ada-belgium/events/22/220206-fosdem.html Organized in cooperation with Ada-Belgium and Ada-Europe ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Ada FOSDEM community is pleased to announce the 11th edition of the Ada DevRoom! This time, however, it will take place online on the 6th of February. This edition of the Ada DevRoom is organized in cooperation with Ada-Belgium [1] and Ada-Europe [2]. General Information about FOSDEM -------------------------------- FOSDEM [3], the Free and Open source Software Developers' European Meeting, is a free and non-commercial two-day weekend event organized early each year in Brussels, Belgium. This year, for obvious reasons, it has been turned into an online event, just like last year. It is highly developer-oriented and brings together 8000+ participants from all over the world. No registration is necessary. The goal is to provide open source developers and communities a place to meet with other developers and projects, to be informed about the latest developments in the open source world, to attend interesting talks and presentations on various topics by open source project leaders and committers, and to promote the development and the benefits of open source solutions. Ada Programming Language and Technology --------------------------------------- Awareness of safety and security issues in software systems is ever increasing. Multi-core platforms are now abundant. These are some of the reasons that the Ada programming language and technology attracts more and more attention, among others due to Ada's support for programming by contract and for multi-core targets. The latest Ada language definition was updated early 2016. Work on new features is ongoing, such as improved support for fine-grained parallelism, and will result in a new Ada standard scheduled for 2022. Ada-related technology such as SPARK provides a solution for the safety and security aspects stated above. More and more tools are available, many are open source, including for small and recent platforms. Interest in Ada keeps further increasing, also in the open source community, from which many exciting projects have been started. Ada Developer Room ------------------ FOSDEM is an ideal fit for an Ada Developer Room. On the one hand, it gives the general open source community an opportunity to see what is happening in the Ada community and how Ada can help to produce reliable and efficient open source software. On the other hand, it gives open source Ada projects an opportunity to present themselves, get feedback and ideas, and attract participants to their project and collaboration between projects. At previous FOSDEM events, the Ada-Belgium non-profit organization organized successful Ada Developer Rooms, offering a full day program in 2006 [4], a two-day program in 2009 [5], and full day programs in 2012-2016 [6-10], and in 2018-2020 [11-13]. An important goal is to present exciting Ada technology and projects, including people outside the traditional Ada community. This edition is no different, and since it will take place online, we hope to attract people from all over the world. Call for Presentations ---------------------- We would like to schedule technical presentations, tutorials, demos, live performances, project status reports, discussions, etc, in the Ada Developer Room. Do you have a talk you want to give? Do you have a project you would like to present? Would you like to get more people involved with your project? The Ada organizers call on you to: - discuss and help organize the details, subscribe to the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list [14]; - for bonus points, be a speaker: the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list is the place to be! - don't hesitate to propose a topic that you would like to present to the community, we are eager to know what you have in store for us! We're inviting proposals that are related to Ada software development, and include a technical oriented discussion. You're not limited to slide presentations, of course. Be creative. Propose something fun to share with people so they might feel some of your enthusiasm for Ada! Speaking slots should be 15 or 30 minutes, plus 5 or 10 minutes resp. for Q&A, if the same schedule as last year is followed. However, this schedule is flexible and can be modified for longer talks. For example, a long technical talk can be transformed into a 45 minutes talk, plus time for Q&A. Depending on interest, we might also have a session with lightning presentations (e.g. 5 minutes each), and/or an informal discussion session. Note that all talks will be streamed live (audio+video) and should be prerecorded. After the streaming of the talk, a live Q&A session will take place. By submitting a proposal, you agree to being recorded and streamed. You also agree that the contents of your talk will be published under the same license as all FOSDEM content, a Creative Commons (CC-BY) license. Submission Guidelines --------------------- Your proposal must be submitted to the FOSDEM Pentabarf system [15]. If you already had an account from previous years, please, reuse it. If, for whatever reason, you cannot use Pentabarf, you can also submit your proposal by messaging the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list [14]. If needed, feel free to contact us at the Ada-FOSDEM Mailing list or at <irvise (at) irvise.xyz> (without spaces). Please include: - your name, affiliation, contact info; - the title of your talk (be descriptive and creative); - a short descriptive and attractive abstract; - potentially pointers to more information; - a short bio and photo. See programs of previous Ada DevRooms (URLs below) for presentation examples, as well as for the kind of info we need. Here is the slightly flexible schedule that we will follow: - December 26, 2021: end of the submission period. Remember, we only need the information in the list above. You do not have to submit the entire talk by this date. Try to submit your proposal as early as possible. It is better to submit half of the details early than all late, so do not wait for the last minute.

[Please accept our apologies for multiple postings.] CALL FOR PAPERS ******************************************************************************* ExSAIS 2022: Workshop on Extreme Scaling of AI for Science https://hpc.pnl.gov/exsais/ June 3, 2022 Co-Located with IPDPS 2022 Lyon, France ****************************************************************************** Call for Papers --------------- The evolution of machine perception to machine learning and reasoning, and ultimately machine intelligence, has a potential to significantly impact acceleration and advancement of autonomous scientic discovery and the operation of scientic instruments. While machine reasoning will enable intelligent systems to better understand and interact with their physical world, machine intelligence through modeling, simulation and automation, closes the gap between experiments, extreme computing, and scientic discovery. In order to usher in this new era of autonomous science, advances in several areas of artificial intelligence and other disciplines e.g., high-performance computing, data engineering need to come together. Therefore, the goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from diverse backgrounds to enable extreme scaling of AI for science. This workshop will address the overarching goal of enabling semi-autonomous and autonomous AI-driven predictive and prescriptive scientic discovery at scale by integrating extreme-scale heterogeneous and reconfigurable computing paradigms, multiscale mathematics, physics-based simulation, data sciences and engineering to address challenges across science, scientic instruments, and security domains e.g., biology, chemistry, and material science. Specic areas of interest include: * Algorithms: Advance extreme-scale Artificial Intelligence through algorithmic development in the areas of probabilistic reasoning, multimodal representation learning, natural language processing, robotics, decision making, combinatorial optimization and human-machine interaction. * Implementation and deployment: Enable scalable Artificial Intelligence through advances in distributed and parallel AI algorithms and tools, heterogeneous and reconfigurable computing platforms and paradigms, Exascale systems, and compilers and system software for extreme-scale AI/ML algorithms. * Applications: Discuss application use cases in science domains of importance including computational biology, molecular chemistry, material science, epidemiology, energy and physics. The workshop seeks short and long papers spanning all areas of scaling AI for science, engineering and security domains including but not limited to: * Parallel and distributed algorithms for machine learning, machine reasoning, and machine intelligence at scale. Specic examples include: probabilistic reasoning, data analytics, knowledge representation learning, multi-modal analysis, natural language processing, robotics, decision making, combinatorial optimization and human-machine interaction * Software tools, compilers and system software to enable AI for machine perception and reasoning at scale. Specic examples include PyTorch (and Glow), TensorFlow (and XLA), CNTK, TVM, and the MLIR framework. * Application case studies in all areas of science and engineering such as biology, chemistry, material science, high energy physics, and climate security .
