Call for papers & participation. Pre-located to IWQoS2017: Free Open Workshop on Elastic Network Design
by David Larrabeiti 28 Apr '17

28 Apr '17

Call For Papers, Tutorials & Participation 2nd International Workshop on Elastic Networks Design and Optimisation (ELASTICNETS 2017) June 13-14, 2017 Vilanova, Spain https://elasticnetworks.org/2nd-workshop <https://elasticnetworks.org/2nd-workshop> pre-located to IWQoS2017 (http://iwqos2017.ieee-iwqos.org/ <http://iwqos2017.ieee-iwqos.org/>) SCOPE The focus of this edition is set on network elasticity and QoS. Two main phenomena are driving the way the network of the future is evolving: the trend towards a network-based elastic form of computing, like Cloud or Fog Computing, where sharing of resources and latency are essential, and the trend towards a mobile Internet for People and Things where network dependability is critical. Immersive VR gaming, autonomous driving or augmented reality systems are examples of applications extremely demanding in terms of latency, resilience and bandwidth which are not viable without a new backhaul network concept. This network evolution from a static to a smart elastic network is expected to affect end systems, hybrid fog-cloud designs, and all the underlying network, spanning radio/optical access, metro and transport segments. The purpose of this workshop is to gather international experts in an informal forum to discuss the latest research advances and trends in smart elastic networking enabling a hyper-connected hyper-computing-based world. Topics of relevance include but are not limited to: · QoS issues of Elastic Networking · Wireless and wired Network Dependability · Tactile Internet · IoT, Fog and Cloud Computing Orchestration and Planning · Qos in Mobile Edge Computing · Mathematical Techniques for Network Planning and Optimisation Accounting for Latency and Reliability · Elastic Optical Networks (EON): New Technologies, Scheduling and Planning · SDN Control Plane SubNet Planning and Optimisation · Dynamically Reconfigurable Access and Metro Networks · Fog Networking · 5G and beyond-5G technologies enabling fog2cloud · HetNets: Small Cell Planning and Optimisation · Opportunistic resource sharing · Network Orchestration and Management · Energy Efficiency in Network Design · Complex Fog Networks · Cybersecurity in hyper-connected networking Two types of contributions are welcome: · WORKING PAPERS: Contributions of original unpublished work should be submitted in IEEE format (max. 4 pages in both MS Word and PDF format) to papers(a)elasticnetworks.org <mailto:papers@elasticnetworks.org>. Please write ELASTICNETWORKS in the subject line when submitting your contribution. Accepted papers will be printed and distributed to the audience as notes (no formal publication). Each author will have 20 minutes to present her/his work. There will be no official conference proceedings in order to facilitate the presentation on-going work and foster collaboration on ideas. · TUTORIALS: Didactic tutorials on mathematical methods and tools for QoS, network planning and optimisation are welcome.

Deadline Extension: ROME@Euro-Par 2017 - Papers due May 12

======================================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS The 5th Workshop on Runtime and Operating Systems for the Many-core Era (ROME 2017) August 28, 2017, Santiago de Compostela, Spain held in conjunction with Euro-Par 2017, August 28 - September 1, 2017 Santiago de Compostela, Spain http://www.rome.eonerc.rwth-aachen.de ======================================================================= Background ---------- Since the beginning of the multicore era, parallel processing has become prevalent across the board. However, in order to continue a performance increase according to Moore's Law, a next step needs to be taken: away from common multicores towards innovative many-core architectures. Such systems, equipped with a significant higher amount of cores per chip than multicores, pose challenges in both hardware and software design. On the hardware side, complex on-chip networks, scratchpads, hybrid memory cubes, non-volatile memory and stacked memory, as well as deep cache-hierarchies and novel cache-coherence strategies will enrich the current research areas in the future. However, the ROME workshop focuses on the software side because without complying system software, runtime and operating system support, all these new hardware facilities cannot be exploited. Hence, the new challenges in hardware/software co-design are to step beyond traditional approaches and to wage new programming models and operating system designs in order to exploit the theoretically available performance of future hardware as effectively and power-aware as possible. Topics ------ This year, too, authors from all related disciplines are invited to submit unpublished papers regarding software for novel many-core hardware architectures. The call for papers especially emphasizes on the challenges and research questions arising from the upcoming generation of heterogeneous and/or massive parallel systems stepping towards a many-core dominated exascale era. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * New approaches for operating systems on novel many-core architectures * Operating system extensions for addressing many-core related issues * Many-core aware runtime support for large-scale applications * Bare-metal programming and system software for many-cores * Dealing with legacy software on novel many-core architectures * Virtualization to deal with hardware limitations on many-cores * Support for interactivity with and between many-core applications * Message-passing interfaces and middleware for many-core systems * Heterogeneity- and/or hierarchy-aware many-core middleware * Concepts and methods for exploiting deep memory hierarchies * Operating system extensions for non-volatile memory support * Software stacks for new concepts of compute acceleration on many-cores * Interfaces for performance and power analysis on many-core systems * Runtime support for power-aware many-core computing Paper Submission ---------------- Submissions in PDF format should be between 10–12 pages in the Springer LNCS style, which can be downloaded from the Springer Web site ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/latex2e/llncs2e.zip. The 12 pages limit is a hard limit. It includes everything (text, figures, references). On acceptance of the submission, at least one author is required to register for workshop attendance at Euro-Par 2017 and present the paper in the workshop session. Upload your submission to our submission server (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=europar2017workshops) in PDF format. It must not be simultaneously submitted to the main conference or any other publication outlet. For the workshop, we will prepare hand-outs with the accepted papers. The revised versions will be published after the conference in the workshop proceedings of Euro-Par 2017, part of the LNCS series of Springer.

27 Apr '17

************************************************************************* CALL FOR PAPERS The Eleventh IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems (SASO 2017) EXTENDED DEADLINES: Extended abstract submission: May 8, 2017 Extended paper submission: May 24, 2017 University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ; 18-22 September 2017 https://saso2017.telecom-paristech.fr/ ************************************************************************* Part of FAS* - Foundation and Applications of Self-* Computing Conferences Collocated with: The International Conference on Cloud and Autonomic Computing (ICCAC 2017) ------------------- Aims and Scope ------------------- The aim of the Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems conference series (SASO) is to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of research on the foundations of engineered systems that self-adapt and self-organize. The complexity of current and emerging networks, software, and services can be characterized by issues such as scale, heterogeneity, openness, and dynamics in the environment. This has led the software engineering, distributed systems, and management communities to look for inspiration in diverse fields (e.g., complex systems, control theory, artificial intelligence, chemistry, psychology, sociology, and biology) to find new ways of designing and managing such computing systems in a principled way. In this endeavor, self-organization and self-adaptation have emerged as two promising interrelated approaches. They form the basis for many other so-called self-* properties, such as self-configuration, self-healing, or self-optimization. SASO aims to be an interdisciplinary meeting, where contributions from participants with different backgrounds leads to the fostering of a cross-pollination of ideas, and where innovative theories, frameworks, methodologies, tools, and applications can emerge. The eleventh edition of the SASO conference embraces this inter-disciplinary nature, and welcomes novel contributions to both the foundational and application-focused dimensions of self-adaptive and self-organizing systems research. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Systems theory: nature-inspired and socially-inspired paradigms and heuristics; inter-operation of self-* mechanisms; theoretical frameworks and models; control theory; - System properties: robustness; resilience; stability; anti-fragility; diversity; self-reference and reflection; emergent behavior; computational awareness and self-awareness; - Systems engineering: reusable mechanisms and algorithms; design patterns; architectures; methodologies; software and middleware development frameworks and methods; platforms and toolkits; multi-agent systems; - Theory and practice of organization: self-governance, change management, electronic institutions, distributed consensus, commons, knowledge management, and the general use of rules, policies, etc. in self-* systems - Theory and practice of adaptation: mechanisms for adaptation, including evolution, logic, learning; adaptability, plasticity, flexibility - Socio-technical systems: human and social factors; visualization; crowdsourcing and collective awareness; humans-in-the-loop; ethics and humanities in self-* systems; - Data-driven approaches: data mining; machine learning; data science and other statistical techniques to analyze, understand, and manage behavior of complex systems; - Self-adaptive and self-organizing hardware: self-* materials; self-construction; reconfigurable hardware; - Education: experience reports; curricula; innovative course concepts; methodological aspects of self-* systems education; Applications and experiences with self-* systems in any of the following domains are of particular interest: + Smart systems: smart grids, smart cities, smart environments, smart homes, etc. + Industrial automation: embedded self-* systems, adaptive industrial plants, Industry 4.0, cyber physical systems + Transportation: autonomous vehicles, traffic optimization + Autonomous systems: aerial vehicles, undersea vehicles, autonomous robotics + Internet of Things: self-* for network management, self-* applied to cyber security We are looking for contributions that present new fundamental understanding of self-adaptive and self-organizing systems and how they can be engineered and used, including: novel theoretical or experimental results, novel design patterns, mechanisms, system architectures, frameworks, tools, and practical experiences in building or deploying systems and applications. Contributions contrasting different approaches for engineering a given family of systems, or demonstrating the applicability of a certain approach for different systems, are equally encouraged. Likewise, papers describing substantial innovation or insights in the use and communication of self-* systems in the classroom are welcome. Where relevant and appropriate, accepted papers will also be encouraged to participate in the Demo or Poster Sessions. -------------------- Important Dates -------------------- Abstract submission: May 8, 2017 Paper submission: May 24, 2017 Notification: June 30, 2017 Camera ready copy due: July 12, 2017 Conference: September 18-22, 2017 ---------------------------- Submission Instructions ---------------------------- Submissions can be up to 10 pages, formatted according to the standard IEEE Computer Society Press proceedings style guide, and submitted electronically in PDF format. Please submit your papers using the SASO 2017 conference management system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=saso2017. The proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press, and made available as a part of the IEEE Digital Library. Note that a separate Call for Poster and Demo Submissions will also be issued. As per the standard IEEE policies, all submissions should be original, i.e., they must not have been previously published in any conference proceedings, book, or journal and must not currently be under review for another archival conference. We also highlight the IEEE policies regarding plagiarism and self-plagiarism (http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/rights/ID_Plagiaris…). --------------------- Review Criteria --------------------- Papers should present novel ideas in the cross-disciplinary research context described in this call, motivated by problems from current practice or applied research. Both theoretical and empirical contributions should be highlighted, substantiated by formal analysis, simulation, experimental evaluations, or comparative studies, etc. Appropriate references must be made to related work. Because SASO is a cross-disciplinary conference, we encourage papers to be intelligible and relevant to researchers who are not members of the same specialized sub-field. Authors are also encouraged to submit papers describing applications. Application papers should provide an indication of the real-world relevance of the problem that is solved, including a description of the domain, and an evaluation of performance, usability, or comparison to alternative approaches. Experience papers are also welcome, especially if they highlight insights into any aspect of design, implementation or management of self-* systems that would be of benefit to practitioners and the SASO community. All submissions will be rigorously peer reviewed and evaluated based on the quality of their technical contribution, originality, soundness, significance, presentation, understanding of the state of the art, and overall quality. ------------------------------- Conference General Chair ------------------------------- Ada Diaconescu Telecom Paris-Tech, Paris, FR -------------------- Program Chairs -------------------- Peter Lewis, Aston University, Birmingham, UK Sam Malek, University of California, Irvine, USA Hella Seebach, Augsburg University, Augsburg, DE

OpenMP 4.0 is a major advance that adds new forms of parallelism: device constructs for accelerators, SIMD constructs for vector units, and several significant extensions for work-sharing, affinity, and task-based parallelism. OpenMP 4.5 further enhances OpenMP support for todayâ€™s complex heterogeneous architectures. To the benefit of applications using the API, a strong ecosystem of compilers, runtime systems, and tools from various vendors and community partners has also emerged. The International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP) is an annual workshop dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel programming with OpenMP. It is the premier forum to present and to discuss issues, trends, recent research ideas, and results related to parallel programming with OpenMP. We solicit quality submissions of unpublished technical papers detailing innovative, original research and development related to OpenMP. == Topics All topics related to OpenMP are of interest, including OpenMP performance analysis and modeling, OpenMP performance and correctness tools, proposed OpenMP extensions, and OpenMP applications in any domain (e.g., scientific and numerical computation, video games, computer graphics, multimedia, information retrieval, optimization, text processing, data mining, finance, signal and image processing and machine learning). Advances in technologies, such as multi-core processors and OpenMP devices (accelerators such as GPGPUs, DSPs or FPGAs), Multiprocessor Systems on a Chip (MPSoCs), and recent developments in OpenMP itself (e.g., devices) present new opportunities and challenges for software and hardware developers. Recent advances in the C, C++ and Fortran base languages also offer interesting opportunities and challenges to the OpenMP programming model. IWOMP 2017 particularly solicits submissions in these areas as well as ones that discuss how to apply OpenMP to additional models of parallelism such as event loops. == Paper Submission and Registration Submitted papers for review should be limited to 12 pages and follow LNCS guidelines. Submission deadline is April 28, 2017. Submit your paper to: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iwomp2017. Authors of accepted papers will be asked to prepare a final paper of up to 15 pages. As in previous years, IWOMP 2017 will publish formal proceedings of the accepted papers in Springer Verlag's LNCS series. == Important Dates Paper Submission [Extended]: May 5, 2017 (AOE) Notification of acceptance: May 25, 2017 Deadline for final version: June 8, 2017 == Organizers General Chair: - Abid Malik, Brookhaven National Laboratory Program Committee Co-chairs: - Bronis R. de Supinski, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory - Stephen L. Olivier, Sandia National Laboratories

[Apologize for multiple copies] FROM 2017 - First Call for Papers http://unibuc.ro/~conference/from2017 WORKING FORMAL METHODS SYMPOSIUM 5 - 8 July 2017 Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science University of Bucharest Deadline for abstract submissions: 20 May 2017 Aims and Scope Formal methods use mathematical techniques and rigour for developing software and hardware. The formal methods can be used to specify, verify, and analyse in any part of the system life cycle: requirements engineering, modeling, design, architecture, implementation, testing, maintenance and evolution. This assumes on the one hand the development of adequate mathematical methods and frameworks and on the other hand the development of tools that help the user to effectively apply these methods/frameworks in the life cycle of the system. ICUB (The Research Institute of the University of Bucharest), the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of Bucharest, and the Faculty of Computer Science of the Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iasi organize FROM 2017, the first one from a yearly workshop series, meant to bring together Romanian researchers in formal methods and to foster international collaborations. Working Formal Methods Symposium (FROM) aims to bring together researchers and practitioners who work for formal methods by contributing with new theoretical results, methods, techniques, and frameworks, and/or make the formal methods to work by creating or using software tools that apply theoretical contributions. PhD Students are highly encouraged to participate and support for accommodation is available upon request. The program of the symposium will include invited lectures (the current list can be seen on the workshop web page) and regular contributions. Submissions on the general topic of theoretical computer science, formal methods and applications are solicited. Areas and formalisms of interest include: - Category theory in computer science - Distributed systems and concurrency - Formal languages and automata theory - Formal modelling, verification and testing - Logic in computer science - Mathematical structures in computer science - Models of computation - Semantics of programming languages Methods of interest include: - Model checking - Deductive verification - Automated reasoning and model generation - Automated induction - Symbolic computation Applications of interest include: - Program analysis - Verification and synthesis of software and hardware, - Computational logic, - Computer mathematics, - Knowledge representation, ontology reasoning, deductive databases, - Uncertainty reasoning and soft computing Submissions In order to participate with a regular talk, an extended abstract should be submitted before 21 May 2017, via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=from2017 The notification of acceptance will be received by 31 May 2017. Depending on the number and the quality of submissions, we intend to publish extensions of selected presentations in peer-reviewed well-ranked journal. Registration There is no conference fee, but valid registration is required in order to participate at the conference. All participants registered with an abstract will receive the conference kit. There is an additional fee of 50 RON for the social dinner at Casa Universitarilor. For details and updates see http://unibuc.ro/~conference/from2017/ .
