========================================================================== ** Call for Papers ** ========================================================================== Fifth International Workshop on Heterogeneous High-performance Reconfigurable Computing (H^2RC 2019) ========================================================================== Held in conjunction with Supercomputing 2019 and In cooperation with the IEEE Technical Consortium on High Performance Computing (TCHPC) ===============… [View More]=========================================================== Sunday, November 17, 2019 (ALL DAY) Denver, CO http://h2rc.cse.sc.edu ========================================================================== Submission Deadline: August 15, 2019 (4- and 8- page papers) Accepted 8-page manuscripts published/archived by IEEE (See below for descriptions of submission tracks.) ========================================================================== 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. Much of the work in FPGA-based deep learning is built on these frameworks. 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 fifth year, brings together HPC and heterogeneous-computing researchers to demonstrate and share experiences on how newly-available high-level programming models, including OpenCL, are already empowering HPC software developers to directly leverage FPGAs, and to identify future opportunities and needs for research in this area. ========================================================================== Submission Tracks and Contribution Selection: ========================================================================== Submissions are solicited for two tracks: Track 1: Full-length papers (8 pages) for 25-minute oral presentation and publication in proceedings archived by IEEE TCHPC. Track 2: Extended abstracts (4 pages) for 15-minute oral presentation without publication. Track 1 is targeted at technical papers containing a high level of implementation detail and analysis discussion of experimental results. Track 1 is suited for members of the academic and national lab community who prefer to have their work peer-reviewed, indexed and archived by IEEE. Track 2 is targeted at industrial contributions that describe new capabilities and opportunities offered by emerging technologies and products, or work in progress presentations by the academic and national lab community. The emphasis of this track is to initiate a discussion with the audience. All submissions are reviewed and evaluated by at least three members of our technical program committee. From the TPC evaluation of each submission, the organizing committee will select papers for presentation based on a criteria that equally weighs scientific merit and level of interest and relevance to the HPC community. ========================================================================== Topics: ========================================================================== 1. Improvement of performance or efficiency of HPC or data center applications with FPGAs 2. System integration of FPGAs in clouds and HPC systems 3. Leveraging reconfigurability 4. Benchmarks 6. Programming languages, tools, and frameworks 7. Future-gazing ========================================================================== Important dates: ========================================================================== Submission Deadline: August 15, 2019 Acceptance Notification: September 15, 2019 Camera-ready Manuscripts Due: October 11, 2019 Workshop Date: November 17, 2019 ========================================================================== Organizing Committee: ========================================================================== Jason D.

01 Aug '19

Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this email! ********** WORKS 2019 Workshop********** 14th Workflows in Support of Large-Scale Science Workshop http://works.cs.cardiff.ac.uk/ Sunday 17 November 2019, Denver, CO Held in conjunction with SC19, http://sc19.supercomputing.org/ Paper submission deadline: 5 August 2019 ***************************************** Call For Papers Data-intensive Workflows (a.k.a. scientific workflows) are routinely used in most scientific … [View More]disciplines today, especially in the context of parallel and distributed computing. Workflows provide a systematic way of describing the analysis and rely on workflow management systems to execute the complex analyses on a variety of distributed resources. They are at the interface between end-users and computing infrastructures. With the dramatic increase of raw data volume in every domain, they play an even more critical role to assist scientists in organizing and processing their data and to leverage HPC or HTC resources, e.g., workflows played an important role in the discovery of Gravitational Waves. This workshop focuses on the many facets of data-intensive workflow management systems, ranging from job execution to service management and the coordination of data, service and job dependencies. The workshop therefore covers a broad range of issues in the scientific workflow lifecycle that include: data-intensive workflows representation and enactment; designing workflow composition interfaces; workflow mapping techniques that may optimize the execution of the workflow; workflow enactment engines that need to deal with failures in the application and execution environment; and a number of computer science problems related to scientific workflows such as semantic technologies, compiler methods, fault detection and tolerance. The topics of the workshop include but are not limited to: Big Data analytics workflows Data-driven workflow processing (including stream-based workflows) Workflow composition, tools, and languages Workflow execution in distributed environments (including HPC, clouds, and grids) Reproducible computational research using workflows Dynamic data dependent workflow systems solutions Exascale computing with workflows In Situ Data Analytics Workflows Interactive workflows (including workflow steering) Workflow fault-tolerance and recovery techniques Workflow user environments, including portals Workflow applications and their requirements Adaptive workflows Workflow optimizations (including scheduling and energy efficiency) Performance analysis of workflows Workflow debugging Workflow provenance ***************************************** Important Dates Papers due: 5 August 2019 (EXTENDED) Paper acceptance notification: 1 September 2019 E-copyright registration completed by authors: 1 October 2019 Camera-ready deadline: 1 October 2019 Submitted papers must be at most 10 pages long.

[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] ======================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS First international workshop on HPC for Urgent Decision making (UrgentHPC) In conjunction with SC19: The International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis, Sunday afternoon November 17, 2019, Denver, Colorado, USA. In cooperation with IEEE TCHPC. https://… [View More]www.urgenthpc.com ======================================================================== Paper submission deadline: August 14, 2019 (AoE) Author notification: September 10, 2019 Camera ready deadline: September 30, 2019 Scope ===== Responding to disasters such as wildfires, hurricanes, extreme flooding, earthquakes, tsunamis, winter weather conditions, and accidents; technological advances are creating exciting new opportunities that have the potential to move HPC well beyond traditional computational workloads. Whilst HPC has a long history of simulating disasters, whatís missing to support emergency, urgent, decision making is fast, real-time acquisition of data and the ability to guarantee time constraints. Our ability to capture data continues to grow very significantly, and combining high velocity data and live analytics with HPC models can aid in urgently responding to real-world problems, ultimately saving lives and reducing economic loss. It's not just responding to disasters, but also making urgent decisions addressing more general issues such as human health emergencies and global diseases. The challenges here are significant, but if HPC can be proven as a tool in responding to these real-world issues, the impact for our community is huge. Leveraging HPC for urgent decision making requires expertise in a wide range of areas, from dealing with real-time data, to experience in generating results within a specific time frame (real-time constraints), and generating visualizations enabling front-line decision makers to make correct choices first time, every time. It isn't just technical challenges, but also policy issues that also need to be considered such as utilizing our HPC machines in a more interactive manner to enable the urgent exploration of numerous disaster responses. This workshop will bring together stakeholders, researchers and practitioners from across the HPC community to identify and tackle issues involved in using HPC for urgent decision making. Success stories, case-studies and challenges will be shared, with the goal of further building up a community around leveraging HPC as an important tool in urgently responding to disasters and societal challenges. Call for Papers ============ We invite you to submit both full and hot-topic research papers detailing original work in the area of using HPC for making urgent decisions. Topics of interest for workshop submissions include (but are not limited to): * Example use-cases and case-studies that use HPC for urgent decision making * Techniques for integrating HPC workflows with real-time data * Approaches to verify and validate unreliable real-time data, for instance from sensors, IoT and satellites * System design for data reduction and pre-processing at source, for instance using edge computing and heterogeneous resources such as FPGAs * The use of data formats and conversion techniques to support the handling of data from numerous and diverse sources * Algorithmic techniques to guarantee result generation in specific time frames, such as result refinement which generates more accurate results as time progresses * Studies of leveraging HPC for workloads with real-time time constraints * Changes to existing HPC technologies and policies that are required to support using HPC interactively * The ability for HPC codes to adapt their resource requirements dynamically, for instance via elastic compute * Visualization and presentation techniques to support rapid and accurate urgent decision making by the end user * Reduction and feature extraction of results to highlight critical issues of interest * Complimenting results with provenance data for additional context and certainty * Data analysis techniques for making urgent decisions in response to disasters Paper Submission Guidelines ====================== * Papers should be submitted electronically via the SC19 Submission Page (https://submissions.supercomputing.org). * All papers will be peer-reviewed and accepted papers published via IEEE TCHPC * Papers will be published via IEEE TCHPC and as such they must follow the IEEE formatting, templates available athttp://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.h… * Full paper submissions are limited to 10 pages and hot-topic submissions 4 pages.

[CFP] IA^3 2019 - 9th SC Workshop on Irregular Applications: Architectures and Algorithms
by Tumeo, Antonino 23 Jul '19

23 Jul '19

[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] IA^3 2019 9th Workshop on Irregular Applications: Architectures and Algorithms http://hpc.pnl.gov/IA3 November 18, 2019 Colorado Convention Center, Denver, CO In conjunction with SC19 Sponsored by IEEE TCHPC Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE Digital Library through IEEE TCHPC. -------------------- Call for Papers -------------------- Irregular applications occur in many subject matters. While inherently parallel, they exhibit … [View More]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: August 28, 2019 Position or Regular Paper Submission: September 4, 2019 Notification: October 1, 2019 Camera-ready: October 10, 2019 Workshop: November 18, 2019 -------------------- 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 including figures, tables and references. Authors of regular papers will be able to provide up to one (1) additional pages for the Artifact Description (AD) appendix and, after paper acceptance, up to two (2) additional pages for the Artifact Evaluation (AE) appendix. 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://sc19.supercomputing.org/submit/reproducibility-initiative/. 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. This additional page is voluntary, 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. If a paper has no computational results, the appendix only needs to mention that computational results are not part of the paper. 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.

22 Jul '19

(sorry for cross postings) ************************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS: Special Session on High Performance Computing in Modelling and Simulation (HPCMS) Within PDP 2020 (www.pdp2020.com) The 28th Euromicro International Conference on Parallel, and Network-Based Computing Västerås (Sweden) 11-13 March 2020 http://www.pdp2020.com/specialsessions/hpcms/hpcms.html Deadline: September 15th, 2019 Contact: William Spataro - spataro(a)unical.it ***… [View More]********************************************************************** 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 at PDP (since 2014), we are glad to invite you to our sixth edition which will take place in Vasteras (Västerås) (Sweden). 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: 15 September 2019 Acceptance notification: 20 October 2019 Camera ready due: 11 December 2019 Conference: 11 - 13 March 2020 Submission guidelines Prospective authors should submit a full paper not exceeding 8 pages in the IEEE Conference proceedings format (IEEEtran, double-column, 10pt).
