The objective of the SCALE Challenge is to highlight and showcase real-world problem solving using computing that scales. Effective solutions to many scientific and engineering problems require applications that can scale. There are different dimensions to application scalability. For example, applications can scale-up to a large number of cores on a compute unit, scale-out to utilize multiple distinct compute units, or exhibit elastic scaling to acquire and release resources on-demand, based on current need. The result may be an application that can solve a larger problem, increase throughput, and/or reduce execution time. In order to scale, applications need to be supported by tools, middleware, software cyber-infrastructure, programming frameworks, computing infrastructure, etc. The SCALE Challenge is concerned with advances in application development and their supporting infrastructure to enable scaling. All papers presented at the SCALE challenge and selected by the Scale Challenge Committee of IEEE/ACM CCGrid 2019 will be submitted to IEEE Xplore for publication and EI indexing. Proposal submission: 31 Jan 2019 Moore info at http://ccgrid2019.ucy.ac.cy/pages/scale2019.html ***Organizing Committee*** **General Chairs:** Marios Dikaiakos, University of Cyprus, Cyprus Schahram Dustdar, TU Wien, Austria **Program Chairs:** Sarunas Girdzijauskas, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden George Pallis, University of Cyprus, Cyprus Yongwei Wu, Tsinghua University, China **Workshop and Tutorial Chairs:** Adel Nadjaran Toosi, Monash University, Australia Borja Sotomayor, University of Chicago, USA **Doctoral Symposium Chair:** Sandra Gesing, University of Notre Dame, USA **SCALE Challenge Chairs:** Herodotos Herodotou, Cyprus University of Technology, Cyprus Radu Prodan, University of Innsbruck, Austria **Local Arrangement Chairs:** TBD **Publicity Chair:** Demetris Trihinas, University of Nicosia, Cyprus **Proceedings Chair:** Georgiana Copil, SAP, Romania **Registration & Finance Chair:** George Papadopoulos, University of Cyprus, Cyprus **Sponsorships and Students Travel Award Chair:** Eliezer Dekel, Huawei, Germany **Web Chair:** Kyriakos Georgiades, EasyConferences, Cyprus **Vice Chairs:** Applications and Data Science Vasiliki Kalavri, ETH Zurich, Switzerland Eiko Yoneki, University of Cambridge, UK Architecture and Networking Anne-Cecile Orgerie, IRISA, France Luis Veiga Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal Cloud Computing Shadi Ibrahim, INRIA, France Dimitrios Tsoumakos, Ionian University, Greece Autonomic Computing, Datacenters and Cyber-infrastructure: Georges DaCosta, IRIT, France Xuanhua Shi, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China Performance Modelling and Evaluation Rodrigo N.

(sorry for cross postings) ************************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS: Sixth Special Session on High Performance Computing in Modelling and Simulation (HPCMS) Within PDP 2019 (www.pdp2019.eu) The 27th Euromicro International Conference on Parallel, and Network-Based Computing Pavia, Italy 13-15 February 2019 https://www.pdp2019.eu/hpcms.html Deadline: September 15th, 2018 Contact: William Spataro - spataro(a)unical.it ************************************************************************* AIMS AND SCOPE The development of models through which computers can simulate the evolution of artificial and natural systems is fundamental for the advancement of Science. In the last decades, the increasing power of computers has allowed to considerably extend the application of computing methodologies in research and industry, but also to the quantitative study of complex phenomena. This has permitted a broad application of numerical methods for differential equation systems (e.g., FEM, FDM, etc.) on one hand, and the application of alternative computational paradigms, such as Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm Intelligence, etc., on the other. These latter have demonstrated their effectiveness for modelling purposes when traditional simulation methodologies have proven to be impracticable. Following the success of our past HPCMS workshops we are glad to invite you to our sixth edition which will take place in Pavia (Italy). An important mission of the HPCMS Workshop is to provide a platform for a multidisciplinary community composed of scholars, researchers, developers, educators, practitioners and experts from world leading Universities, Institutions, Agencies and Companies in Computational Science, and thus in the High Performance Computing for Modelling and Simulation field. HPCMS intent is to offer an opportunity to express and confront views on trends, challenges, and state-of-the art in diverse application fields, such as engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, medicine, ecology, sociology, traffic control, economy, etc. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - High-performance computing in computational science: intra-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary research applications - Complex systems modelling and simulation - Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm Intelligence implementations - Integrated approach to optimization and simulation - MPI, OpenMP, GPGPU applications in Computational Science - Optimization algorithms, modelling techniques related to optimization in Computational Science - High-performance Software developed to solve science (e.g., biological, physical, and social), engineering, medicine, and humanities problems - Hardware approaches of high performance computing in modeling and simulation IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission: 20 September 2018 Acceptance notification: 20 October 2018 Camera ready due: 18 November 2018 Conference: 13 – 15 February 2019 Submission guidelines Prospective authors should submit a full paper not exceeding 8 pages in the IEEE Conference proceedings format (IEEEtran, double-column, 10pt).
