Call for Papers PAW-ATM 2025: Parallel Applications Workshop, Alternatives To MPI+X
by Morris Wright, Karla Vanessa 14 Apr '25

14 Apr '25

***************************************************************** Call for Papers PAW-ATM 2025: Parallel Applications Workshop, Alternatives To MPI+X Held in conjunction with SC25, St. Louis, MO Submissions deadline: July 24, 2025 Notification to authors: August 30, 2025 Workshop date: November 16|17|21, 2025 https://sourceryinstitute.github.io/PAW/ **************************************************************** SUMMARY As supercomputers become more and more powerful, the number and diversity of applications that can be tackled with these machines grow. Unfortunately, the architectural complexity of these supercomputers grows as well, with heterogeneous processors, multiple levels of memory hierarchy, and many ways to move data and synchronize between processors. The MPI+X programming model, use of which is considered by many to be standard practice, demands that a programmer be expert in both the application domain and the low-level details of the architecture(s) on which that application will be deployed, and the availability of such superhuman programmers is a critical bottleneck. Things become more complicated when evolution and change in the underlying architecture translates into significant re-engineering of the MPI+X code to maintain performance. Numerous alternatives to the MPI+X model exist, and by raising the level of abstraction on the application domain and/or the target architecture, they offer the ability for "mere mortal" programmers to take advantage of the supercomputing resources that are available to advance science and tackle urgent real-world problems. However, compared to the MPI+X approach, these alternatives generally lack two things. First, they aren't as well known as MPI+X and a domain scientist may simply not be aware of models that are a good fit to their domain. Second, they are less mature than MPI+X and likely have more functionality or performance "potholes" that need only be identified to be addressed. PAW-ATM is a forum for discussing HPC applications written in alternatives to MPI+X. Its goal is to bring together application experts and proponents of high-level languages to present concrete example uses of such alternatives, describing their benefits and challenges. SCOPE AND AIMS The PAW-ATM workshop is designed to be a forum for discussion of supercomputing-scale parallel applications and their implementation in programming models outside of the dominant MPI+X paradigm. Papers and talks will explore the benefits (or perhaps drawbacks) of implementing specific applications with alternatives to MPI+X, whether those benefits are in performance, scalability, productivity, or some other metric important to that application domain. Presenters are encouraged to generalize the experience with their application to other domains in science and engineering and to bring up specific areas of improvement for the model(s) used in the implementation. In doing so, our hope is to create a setting in which application authors, language designers, and architects can present and discuss the state of the art in alternative scalable programming models, while also wrestling with how to increase their effectiveness and adoption. Beyond well-established HPC scientific simulations, we also encourage submissions exploring artificial intelligence, big data analytics, machine learning, and other emerging application areas. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Novel application development using high-level parallel programming languages and frameworks * Examples that demonstrate performance, compiler optimization, error checking, and reduced software complexity * Applications from artificial intelligence, data analytics, bioinformatics, and other novel areas * Performance evaluation of applications developed using alternatives to MPI+X and comparisons to standard programming models * Novel algorithms enabled by high-level parallel abstractions * Experience with the use of new compilers and runtime environments * Libraries using or supporting alternatives to MPI+X * Benefits of hardware abstraction and data locality on algorithm implementation Papers that include description of applications that demonstrate the use of alternative programming models will be given higher priority. SUBMISSIONS Submissions are solicited in two categories: 1) Full-length papers presenting novel research results: * Full-length papers will be published in the workshop proceedings. Submitted papers must describe original work that has not appeared in, nor is under consideration for, another conference or journal. Papers shall be eight (8) pages minimum and not exceed ten (10) pages including text, figures, and non-AD/AE appendices, but excluding bibliography and acknowledgments. PAW-ATM follows the reproducibility initiative of SC25. Submissions shall include an Artifact Description (AD) appendix, and may optionally include an Artifact Evaluation (AE) appendix. Authors should include a draft of the AD/AE appendices with the initial manuscript PDF submission. You will have the opportunity to revise the appendix before its final submission. See https://sourceryinstitute.github.io/PAW/ for further details. 2) User experience abstracts: * Abstracts will be evaluated separately and will not be included in the published proceedings. Submissions in this track include a title and 1-4 pages abstract. The content may include any combination of novel and/or previously published work that is relevant to the workshop's scope. Content that highlights the experiences of users of alternatives of MPI, and their applications, will be prioritized within this submission category. Abstracts may optionally include AD/AE appendices, not included in the abstract page count, but such appendices will not be evaluated and no badges will be awarded.

CFP: Workshop on Scalable Compute Continuum (WSCC) co-located with Euro-Par 2025
by Matteo Nardelli 25 Mar '25

25 Mar '25

[Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this email] ************************************************************************************************** WSCC 2025: Euro-Par 2025 International Workshop on Scalable Compute Continuum Date: 25-26 August 2025 Location: Dresden, Germany Workshop web page: https://wscc.di.unipi.it/ Euro-Par web page: https://2025.euro-par.org/ Submission site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=europar2025 ************************************************************************************************** * Call for Papers The “Compute Continuum” paradigm is transforming how we manage the heterogeneity and dynamism of widespread computing resources. By seamlessly integrating resources across the edge, fog, and cloud, this paradigm enhances data locality, performance, availability, adaptability, energy efficiency, and other non-functional properties. This is made possible by overcoming resource fragmentation and segregation in tiers, allowing applications to be seamlessly executed and relocated along a continuum of resources spanning from the edge to the cloud. Besides consolidated vertical and horizontal scaling patterns, the Compute Continuum also introduces fine-grained adaptation actions tailored to specific infrastructure components (e.g., optimizing energy consumption or leveraging specialized hardware such as GPUs, FPGAs, and TPUs). These capabilities unlock significant benefits, including support for latency-sensitive applications, reduction of network bandwidth consumption, improved privacy protection, and enable the development of novel services across domains such as smart cities, healthcare, safety, and mobility. All of this should be achievable by application developers without having to worry about how and where the developed components will be executed. To fully harness the potential of the Compute Continuum, proactive, autonomous, and infrastructure-aware management is essential. This calls for novel interdisciplinary approaches that exploit optimization theory, control theory, machine learning, and artificial intelligence methods. In this landscape, the workshop is willing to attract contributions in the area of distributed systems with particular emphasis on support for geographically distributed platforms and autonomic features to deal with variable workloads and environmental events, and take the best of heterogeneous and distributed infrastructures. A partial list of interesting topics of this workshop is the following: - Scalable architectures and systems for the Compute Continuum - Orchestration, deployment, and management of resources and applications in the Compute Continuum - Programming models, languages and patterns for the Compute Continuum - Compute Continuum performance modeling and analysis - Function-as-a-Service and Backend-as-a-Service in the Compute Continuum - Energy-efficient and carbon-aware solutions for sustainable Compute Continuum - Lightweight virtualization for the Compute Continuum - AI-driven optimization and AI-related workloads in the Compute Continuum (e.g., federated, distributed, decentralized learning) - Scalable applications for the Compute Continuum (e.g., IoT, microservices, serverless) - Data processing and analytics in the Compute Continuum - Digital Twins and industry applications in the Compute Continuum - Prototypes and real-life experiments involving Compute Continuum - Heterogeneous hardware acceleration and domain-specific architectures - Workflows in the Compute Continuum - Convergence and integration of HPC and Continuum platforms - Resilience and fault-tolerant strategies for the Compute Continuum - Benchmarks, reproducibility frameworks, and real-world experimental platforms * Submission Instructions The papers should be formatted according to the LNCS guidelines. They should be between a minimum of 10 and maximum of 12 pages. * Special Issue Selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to a Journal Special Issue. We are in contact to propose a Special Issue in a high-quality journal. Information will appear soon on the WSCC web site. * Important Dates May 5th, 2025 Paper submission deadline June 23rd, 2025 Paper acceptance notifications July 7th, 2025 Camera-ready due * Workshop Co-Chairs - Valeria Cardellini, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy - Patrizio Dazzi, University of Pisa, Italy - Gabriele Mencagli, University of Pisa, Italy - Matteo Nardelli, Bank of Italy, Italy - Massimo Torquati, University of Pisa, Italy We look forward to receiving your contributions!

Available PhD Position: Multimodal AI-based Diagnosis of ADHD
by Amir Aly 17 Mar '25

17 Mar '25

Dear All *Apologies for cross-posting* We are pleased to announce an opportunity for a tax-free fully funded PhD studentship - *Multimodal AI-based Diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) -* at Plymouth University, UK. The closing date for applications is *12 noon on 28th March 2025** (**UK time) **(**The difference in tuition fees between national and international students will be waived for international candidates**)*. This exciting project aims to transform ADHD diagnosis by developing a multimodal Artificial Intelligence (AI) framework that addresses the significant limitations of current, subjective diagnostic practices. Although AI is emerging in ADHD research, its integration into standard clinical practices remains minimal. This project seeks to enhance diagnostic accuracy through a sophisticated integration of AI-driven insights that complement existing approaches. Some basic questions (among others) that this project will try to explore are: 1. How can machine learning and deep learning models be tailored to various data types like neuroimaging to uncover distinct ADHD diagnostic patterns? 2. What methods can be used to analyse fMRI data to delineate active brain regions and their connections, and how can these findings be linked to ADHD behaviours and cognitive functions? 3. How can we refine AI models to handle high data dimensionality and heterogeneity and enhance decision-making transparency in clinical settings using Explainable AI (XAI) methods? 4. What are the best practices to assess the robustness of AI models against the variability in ADHD diagnostic data? This ambitious project will allow the student to engage in a groundbreaking study at the intersection of AI, neuropsychiatry, and healthcare and gain experience in a highly collaborative environment supported by a strong supervisory team and international experts. The research leverages our team's extensive background in neuro-developmental disorders like Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), where we recently discussed important brain regions related to ASD diagnosis (link) <https://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.15374>. This PhD opportunity offers a deep dive not only into the diagnosis of ADHD using explainable AI but also into other related *co-occurring* disorders like ASD, providing a holistic perspective on patient care and intervention strategies across the spectrum of these interrelated conditions. This project is suitable for students from a broad range of disciplines, including computer science and artificial intelligence. More details about the topic and *how to apply* are available at: https://www.plymouth.ac.uk/study/research-degrees/postgraduate-research-stu… If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me Regards -------------------------------------------- *Dr. Amir Aly*, PhD, FHEA, SIEEE Lecturer in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Programme Manager of Artificial Intelligence UK and Ireland IEEE RAS Chapter Vice Chair Director of the Centre for Robotics and Neural Systems (CRNS) School of Engineering, Computing, and Mathematics Room A307 Portland Square, Drake Circus, PL4 8AA University of Plymouth, UK

*Dear All, * **Apologies for cross-posting** *Applications are invited for three-year PhD studentships at the University of Plymouth, UK. * *The studentships will start on Wednesday 1 October 2025.* *The closing date for applications is Friday 9 May 2025 (midnight, UK time).* A list of projects can be found below. It is essential that candidates discuss their proposal/plans with their intended supervisor(s), prior to writing their proposal and submitting an application. The school can only consider PhD research proposals that have the support of a supervisor (see required documents). ------------------------------------------------- *1- AI-Based Analysis of Voice Biomarkers in Neurodevelopmental Disorders* This interdisciplinary PhD project will harness Artificial Intelligence (AI) methodologies to analyse vocal patterns within clinical populations, specifically targeting Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The project aims to develop innovative diagnostic models, such as deep learning models, that accurately identify and differentiate unique vocal characteristics to each disorder utilising extensive and varied datasets of autistic, ADHD and neurotypical people, enhancing our understanding and diagnostic capabilities for these conditions. Candidates should have a basic knowledge in AI and machine learning techniques, especially those applicable to audio processing and speech analysis. While knowledge of psychological or neurological principles is advantageous, it is not compulsory. The candidate will be part of a collaboration between Clinical Psychology and Computer Science, offering a unique chance to pioneer in the application of AI to clinical diagnostics. This interdisciplinary effort aims to push the boundaries of how machine learning can improve understanding and treatment strategies for neurodevelopmental disorders. *- Contact: Dr. Gray Atherton*, gray.atherton(a)plymouth.ac.uk *2- Virtual Reality Training for Spatial Familiarity with Autistic Individuals* This PhD project aims to develop a virtual reality (VR) training program to help autistic individuals navigate unfamiliar spaces with reduced anxiety as well as explore new imaginary spaces that can build confidence. Utilising VR technology, the project will recreate common environments to allow participants to engage with these spaces in a safe and controlled setting. The use of a VE2 walking treadmill will intensify the realism of the experience, enabling participants to physically walk through these virtual spaces, thereby improving spatial familiarity and comfort. Candidates are expected to have a foundational understanding of VR programming, including expertise in Unity. Skills in integrating sophisticated sensory technologies such as eye-tracking and face recognition are appreciated, as they will be used to tailor and adapt scenarios based on real-time user reactions and interactions. This role calls for a blend of technical acumen and creative problem-solving, offering a chance to pioneer VR applications that extend beyond entertainment into therapeutic settings. This interdisciplinary initiative bridges the gap between Clinical Psychology and Computer Science, offering candidates an opportunity to pioneer methods that could significantly advance therapeutic practices for neurodevelopmental disorders. *- Contact: Dr. Liam Cross*, liam.cross(a)plymouth.ac.uk *3- Enhancing Social Interaction for Autistic Individuals through Anthropomorphic Augmented Reality * This PhD project seeks to explore how autistic individuals often show a preference for interacting with non-human entities such as animals, cartoons, and robots, possibly due to the simpler social cues and lack of negative biases associated with human faces. Leveraging these insights, the project will develop an augmented reality (AR) application designed to overlay human faces with non-human characteristics, thereby enhancing comfort, social attention, and engagement among autistic participants. We are seeking a PhD candidate proficient in AR technologies, with hands-on experience in platforms like Hololens, and a good foundation in computer science. The successful candidate will be driven by a desire to apply cutting-edge AR solutions to real-world challenges in education and healthcare settings. The candidate will engage in developing complex AR interfaces and utilise user-centred design principles to create applications that significantly improve social interactions for autistic individuals. Familiarity with the psychological aspects of autism will be crucial in customizing the technology to meet user needs effectively. *- Contact: Dr. Gray Atherton*, gray.atherton(a)plymouth.ac.uk *4-* *Examining Cohesion and Authoritarianism through Synchronised VR Interactions* This project seeks to explore how moving in synchrony with others within a virtual reality (VR) environment influences social behaviour, enhancing cohesion and potentially promoting obedient tendencies. The research will employ VR to simulate scenarios where participants can engage in synchronized activities, studying the psychological effects of these interactions. These effects have historical significance in contexts such as war, riots, an other scenarios. The project will manipulate environmental factors, virtual agents, and reward systems to observe how these controlled variables influence behaviours related to conformity and personal control. We are looking for a PhD candidate with a good experience in VR programming, tools and platforms, interested in using this technology to probe the complex dynamics of human behaviour and applying their technical skills to investigate social psychological phenomena. This interdisciplinary initiative provides a unique opportunity to explore how synchronized movements in virtual environments can shape social behaviours and influence group dynamics, enhancing our understanding of technology's role in social cohesion and control. *- Contact: Dr. Liam Cross*, liam.cross(a)plymouth.ac.uk *5*- *Pure Fantasy: Harnessing VR to Explore and Enhance the Ideal Self in Autistic Individuals* This innovative project taps into the enduring popularity of Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), particularly within the autism community, to explore and enhance self-concept through immersive virtual reality (VR). D&D has long served as a valuable tool for autistic individuals to experiment with their identities and improve social skills. Our project aims to create a groundbreaking VR D&D experience that allows players to design avatars embodying traits they aspire to develop or accentuate. Leveraging the Proteus effect, which suggests that the characteristics of an avatar can influence a user’s behaviour, this study will observe how players navigate complex social interactions and quests within a richly detailed virtual world. Players will physically navigate this world using VE2 treadmills, enhancing the immersion and physicality of the experience. We seek a PhD candidate with good skills in VR development, eager to push the boundaries of what VR can achieve in psychological and therapeutic contexts. The ideal candidate will collaborate closely with the Computer Sciences department at the University of Plymouth to refine VR paradigms and should possess an interest in the psychological aspects of VR immersion, specifically how it relates to behaviour change and self-concept in special populations. This interdisciplinary initiative offers a unique opportunity to explore the intersection of technology, psychology, and role-playing games, aiming to provide meaningful insights into how virtual experiences can influence real-world behaviour and self-perception. *- Contact: Dr. Gray Atherton*, gray.atherton(a)plymouth.ac.uk *6- Board games for autistic wellbeing * Board games offer educational and social benefits, particularly for neurodiverse players who thrive in structured settings. This project will establish a board gaming hub for neurodiverse adults, partnering with clinical services to combine social engagement with mental health support. There are currently multiple sites and practices in the Devon area and wider UK keen to take part, and the candidate will have good communication and organisational skills commiserate with working across sites and disciplines. Specifically, we seek a candidate with experience in working with clinical populations and a passion for board gaming. This role suits those interested in intervention design, adult social care, and gaming development for special populations. The candidate will be interested in understanding how to adapt board games for individuals with different needs, and how to liase with research teams and clinical health providers to understand how to most effectively deliver an intervention of this nature. This role will involve working in schools and with young people. *- Contact: Dr. Liam Cross*, liam.cross(a)plymouth.ac.uk ---------------------------------------------------- *Eligibility and funding* Applicants should have a first-class honours degree in an appropriate subject and preferably a relevant MSc or MRes qualification.

Available PhD Position: Multimodal AI-based Diagnosis of ADHD
by Amir Aly 01 Mar '25

01 Mar '25

Dear All *Apologies for cross-posting* We are pleased to announce an opportunity for a tax-free fully funded PhD studentship - *Multimodal AI-based Diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) -* at Plymouth University, UK. The closing date for applications is *12 noon on 28th March 2025** (**UK time) **(**The difference in tuition fees between national and international students will be waived for international candidates**)*. This exciting project aims to transform ADHD diagnosis by developing a multimodal Artificial Intelligence (AI) framework that addresses the significant limitations of current, subjective diagnostic practices. Although AI is emerging in ADHD research, its integration into standard clinical practices remains minimal. This project seeks to enhance diagnostic accuracy through a sophisticated integration of AI-driven insights that complement existing approaches. Some basic questions (among others) that this project will try to explore are: 1. How can machine learning and deep learning models be tailored to various data types like neuroimaging to uncover distinct ADHD diagnostic patterns? 2. What methods can be used to analyse fMRI data to delineate active brain regions and their connections, and how can these findings be linked to ADHD behaviours and cognitive functions? 3. How can we refine AI models to handle high data dimensionality and heterogeneity and enhance decision-making transparency in clinical settings using Explainable AI (XAI) methods? 4. What are the best practices to assess the robustness of AI models against the variability in ADHD diagnostic data? This ambitious project will allow the student to engage in a groundbreaking study at the intersection of AI, neuropsychiatry, and healthcare and gain experience in a highly collaborative environment supported by a strong supervisory team and international experts. The research leverages our team's extensive background in neuro-developmental disorders like Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), where we recently discussed important brain regions related to ASD diagnosis (link) <https://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.15374>. This PhD opportunity offers a deep dive not only into the diagnosis of ADHD using explainable AI but also into other related *co-occurring* disorders like ASD, providing a holistic perspective on patient care and intervention strategies across the spectrum of these interrelated conditions. This project is suitable for students from a broad range of disciplines, including computer science and artificial intelligence. More details about the topic and *how to apply* are available at: https://www.plymouth.ac.uk/study/research-degrees/postgraduate-research-stu… If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me Regards -------------------------------------------- *Dr. Amir Aly*, PhD, FHEA, SIEEE Lecturer in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Programme Manager of Artificial Intelligence UK and Ireland IEEE RAS Chapter Vice Chair Director of the Centre for Robotics and Neural Systems (CRNS) School of Engineering, Computing, and Mathematics Room A307 Portland Square, Drake Circus, PL4 8AA University of Plymouth, UK

Deadline: PDSEC-2025 deadline: 19 Jan 2025 (extension until February 2nd) Scope and Interests: The technological trends in HPC system evolution indicates an increasing burden placed on application developers due to the management 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 in order 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. In particular, we will focus on the following topics in parallel and distributed scientific and engineering applications, and not limited to: - Big scientific data - Performance modeling and simulation for the execution of scalable scientific applications on new heterogeneous architectures - Graph analytics with their (scientific) applications - Code modernization methodologies and experiences for adapting the changes in future computing systems - Languages for scientific computing on hybrid systems (e.g. Python, MPI+X where X is OpenMP, OpenCL, CUDA etc.) - Tools and techniques for improving the performance, reliability and resilience of scientific applications - Use cases of enterprise distributed computing technology (such as MapReduce, Data Analytics and Machine-learning tools) in scientific and engineering applications - Scalable parallel and distributed algorithms supporting science and engineering applications - Performance portability across heterogeneous architecture Important Dates: Paper submission due . . . . . . . . . . . . . .January 19, 2025 (extension until February 2nd) Notification of Acceptance . . . . . . . . . . .

The 9th International Workshop on Agent-based Modeling and Applications with SARL (SARL-25)
by Yazan MUALLA 22 Nov '24

22 Nov '24

CALL FOR PAPERS The 9th International Workshop on Agent-based Modeling and Applications with SARL (SARL-25) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In conjunction with the 16th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks, and Technologies ANT 2025 April 22 - 24, 2025, Patras, Greece. https://www.ciad-lab.fr/9th-international-workshop-on-agent-based-modeling-… ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description =========== Research on Agents and Multi-Agent Systems has matured during the last decade and many effective applications of this technology are now deployed. SARL-25 provides an international forum to present and discuss the latest scientific developments and their effective applications, to assess the impact of the approach, and to facilitate technology transfer. SARL workshop was born with the SARL agent programming language, but the scientific results presented in SARL-25 are not restricted to SARL; other languages and agent platforms may be presented. SARL aims at providing the fundamental abstractions for dealing with concurrency, distribution, interaction, decentralization, reactivity, autonomy and dynamic reconfiguration. These high-level features are now considered as the major requirements for an easy and practical implementation of modern complex software applications. We are convinced that the agent-oriented paradigm holds the keys to effectively meet these features. Considering the variety of existing approaches and meta-models in the field of agent-oriented engineering and more generally multi-agent systems, our approach remains as generic as possible and highly extensible to easily integrate new concepts and features. The goal of SARL-25 is to provide a place where the different points of view on the modeling and the simulation with agent platforms and agent programming languages may be discussed. SARL-25 will be held in Patras, Greece (April 22 - 24, 2025) in conjunction with the 15th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks, and Technologies (ANT 2025). Topics ====== The main topics of the SARL-25 workshop are (but not restricted to): * Methods and Models: * Agent based Modeling and Simulation; * Agent programming language; * Agent based Simulation; * Agent oriented analysis and design methods; * Ontologies and theories about large urban systems; * Formal models of agent-based simulation; * Organizational models. * Applications: * Traffic/Transport; * Crowds; * Smart grids and smart buildings; * Land-Use; * Energy. Important Dates =============== * Submission deadline: January 10, 2025; * Notification: January 26, 2025; * Final date for camera-ready copy: February 9, 2025 (hard); * Workshop: April 22 - 24, 2025. Submission ========== All workshop accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published by Elsevier Science in the open-access Procedia Computer Science series online. The submitted paper must be formatted according to the guidelines of Procedia Computer Science, Elsevier. You are invited to submit full length papers in PDF format on EasyChair (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sarl25), not exceeding 6 pages in length, in single-column format including diagrams and references while following the Procedia Computer Science guidelines. Papers that do not follow these guidelines may be rejected without consideration of their merits. All papers will be reviewed by at least two Program Committee members on the basis of technical quality, originality, clarity, and relevance to the track topics listed above. At least one author of each paper must attend the workshop to present the paper. Workshop Chairs =============== Stéphane GALLAND (Univ. de Technologie de Belfort-Montbéliard, France) Nicolas GAUD (Univ. de Technologie de Belfort-Montbéliard, France) Sebastian RODRIGUEZ (RMIT, Australia) Publicity Chair ================ Yazan MUALLA (Univ. de Technologie de Belfort-Montbéliard, France).

Call for Papers, PDSEC-2025 Workshop, 3rd of June 2025 - Milan, Italy
by Jean-Claude Charr 22 Nov '24

22 Nov '24

**CALL FOR PAPERS** The 26th IEEE International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Scientific and Engineering Computing (PDSEC-2025) (http://www.ieee-tcsc.org/2025/pdsec/) will be held on the 3rd of June 2025 in Milan, Italy, in conjunction with IPDPS 2025. Deadline: PDSEC-2025 deadline: 19 Jan 2025 (AoE) Scope and Interests: The technological trends in HPC system evolution indicates an increasing burden placed on application developers due to the management 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 in order 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. In particular, we will focus on the following topics in parallel and distributed scientific and engineering applications, and not limited to: - Big scientific data - Performance modeling and simulation for the execution of scalable scientific applications on new heterogeneous architectures - Graph analytics with their (scientific) applications - Code modernization methodologies and experiences for adapting the changes in future computing systems - Languages for scientific computing on hybrid systems (e.g. Python, MPI+X where X is OpenMP, OpenCL, CUDA etc.) - Tools and techniques for improving the performance, reliability and resilience of scientific applications - Use cases of enterprise distributed computing technology (such as MapReduce, Data Analytics and Machine-learning tools) in scientific and engineering applications - Scalable parallel and distributed algorithms supporting science and engineering applications - Performance portability across heterogeneous architecture Important Dates: Paper submission due . . . . . . . . . . . . . .January 19, 2025 Notification of Acceptance . . . . . . . . . . .

----------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Presentations 12th Ada Developer Room at FOSDEM 2025 Sunday 2 February 2025, Brussels, Belgium www.cs.kuleuven.be/~dirk/ada-belgium/events/25/250202-fosdem.html Organized in cooperation with Ada-Belgium and Ada-Europe #AdaFOSDEM #AdaDevRoom #AdaProgramming #FOSDEM2025 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Ada FOSDEM community is pleased to announce the 12th edition of the Ada DevRoom! This edition will take place on Sunday morning 2nd of February in Belgium, at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB). This edition of the Ada DevRoom is once more 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. It is highly developer-oriented and brings together 8000+ participants from all over the world. No registration nor payment 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 Ada is a general-purpose programming language originally designed for embedded and mission-critical software engineering, although nowadays it also supports object orientation, contracts and formal verification. It is used extensively in air traffic control, rail transportation, aerospace, nuclear, financial services, medical devices, etc. It is also perfectly suited for open source development with a fully open compiler (part of GCC), a formal verification system and a knowledgeable and vibrant community. Awareness of safety and security issues in software systems is increasing. The NSA recently published [4] a list of programming languages that are recommended for the development of new software due to their memory safety and Ada was one of the list (one of the three compiled non-garbage collected languages!). In that context, it should be no surprise that NVIDIA has started using Ada/SPARK [5, 6] for their highest critical parts in their GPUs! The forums [7] have also seen an uptick of new users since the NSA announcement. Multi-core platforms are now abundant and small, embedded devices are growing exponentially. These are some of the reasons that the Ada programming language and technology attracts more and more attention due to Ada.s support for programming by contract, performant and efficient code, high- and low-level abstractions and support for multi-core targets. The latest Ada language definition, Ada 2022, was approved by ISO as an international standard last year. Work on implementing the new features is ongoing, such as improved support for fine-grained parallelism, which were introduced in the new standard. The Ada-related technology, SPARK, provides a complete solution for the safety and security aspects stated above while being fully open source, making it stand out from other formal verification tools, as Ada/SPARK code is compiled directly into ready-to-run programs, which can even run on embedded systems. More and more tools are available, many are open source, including for small and modern platforms. Interest in Ada keeps 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 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 [8], a two-day program in 2009 [9], and full day programs in 2012-2016 [10-14], in 2018-2020 [15-17] and 2022 [18]. An important goal is to present exciting Ada technology and projects, including people outside the traditional Ada community. This edition is no different. *** 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? Would you like to share some knowledge and lessons about Ada? The Ada DevRoom organizers call on you to: - discuss and help organize the details, subscribe to the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list [19]; - 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 around 20 or 50 minutes, plus 5 or 10 minutes for Q&A. However, this schedule is flexible and we will adapt it to other formats. For example, a short technical talk can be transformed into a 10 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 and recorded (audio+video). 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 Pretalx system [20]. If you already had an account from previous years, reuse it; if not, create a new account. If, for whatever reason, you cannot use Pretalx, you can also submit your proposal by messaging the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list [15]. If needed, feel free to contact us at the Ada-FOSDEM Mailing list or at <irvise (at) irvise.xyz> (without spaces). Please, fill the information asked by the Pretalx system, which includes: - your name, affiliation, contact info; - the title of your talk (be descriptive and creative); - a short descriptive and attractive abstract; - preferred duration of your talk; - pointers to more information if applicable; - 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: - November 30, 2024: 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 be late, so do not wait for the last minute. - December 15, 2024: announcement of accepted talks. - January 15, 2025: your slides should be uploaded to the Pretalx platform. - February 2, 2025: Ada-DevRoom day! We look forward to lots of feedback and proposals!

Call For Participation, PAW-ATM 2024: Parallel Applications Workshop, Alternatives To MPI+X
by Morris Wright, Karla Vanessa 13 Oct '24

13 Oct '24

**************************************************************** Call for Participation PAW-ATM 2024: Parallel Applications Workshop, Alternatives To MPI+X Held in conjunction with SC24, Atlanta, GA November 17, 2024 9:00am - 5:30pm (EST) Room B306 / Hybrid Event https://sourceryinstitute.github.io/PAW/ **************************************************************** Alternatives to MPI+X are worth exploring as programmer productivity becomes a major component of the time to science. Alternatives include parallel programming languages (e.g. Chapel, Regent, Fortran 2018), general purpose libraries (e.g. Charm++, COMPSs, HPX, Legion, UPC++), and domain specific libraries (e.g. Arkouda, Dask, Spark). With many options to choose from, it is hard for programmers to know which alternative models are appropriate for their application and for programming model developers to understand the opportunities for improvement.

PDP 2025 - Special Session on High Performance Computing in Modelling and Simulation (HPCMS)
by William Spataro 22 Sep '24

22 Sep '24

(sorry for cross postings) ************************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS: 11th Special Session on High Performance Computing in Modelling and Simulation (HPCMS) The 33rd Euromicro International Conference on Parallel, and Network-Based Computing Turin (Italy) 12-14 March 2025 https://pdp2025.org/high-performance-computing-in-modelling-and-simulation/ Deadline: November 15, 2024 Contact: William Spataro - spataro(a)unical.it ************************************************************************* AIMS AND SCOPE Model development 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 systems. This has permitted a broad application of numerical methods for differential equation systems (e.g., FEM, FDM, PIC, 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 due to space and/or time constraints. An important mission of the HPCMS Workshop now at its eleventh year at PDP - 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. HPCMS intent is to thus offer an opportunity to express and confront views on trends, challenges, and state-of-the art in computational problems and high-performance computing, related to areas in 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, Sycl and CUDA 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 - Performance models and their integration into the design of efficient parallel algorithms for heterogeneous platforms - Hardware approaches (e.g., FPGAs, Neuromorphic computing, etc) of high performance computing in modeling and simulation IMPORTANT DATES DEADLINE Paper submission: 15 November 2024 Acceptance notification: 10 December 2024 Camera ready due: 27 January 2025 Conference: 12 - 14 March 2025 Submission guidelines Authors should submit a full paper not exceeding 8 pages in the IEEE Conference proceedings format (IEEEtran, double-column, 10pt) and follow format guidelines found at https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html. For submission, please use the following link: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/User/Login?ReturnUrl=%2FPDP2025%2FSubmi… selecting the "High Performance Computing in Modeling and Simulation (HPCMS) submission link. Double-bind review: the first page of the paper should contain only the title and abstract; in the reference list, references to the authors own work should appear as "omitted for blind review" entries.
