ICCSA 2020 workshop Advanced Transport Tools and Methods - A2TM deadline extension and coronavirus outbreak news
by Computational Science Mailing List 24 Mar '20

24 Mar '20

Dear Collegue, I hope to find yourself in good health. Inside the 20th International Conference on Computational Science and Its Application, to be held in Cagliari, Italy in July 1-4 2020, we organized the workshop: Advanced Transport Tools and Methods - A2TM http://www.iccsa.org/workshops The Local Organizing Commitee is doing a great job laying the foundation for a great conference. We are not experts on epidemics and, in order to be sure, it is better to observe the evolution of the phenomenon in order to take better decisions. For this reason we decided new deadlines: Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â full paper submission 26 April 2020 for our Workshop Transport and Mo, the sessions can have different deadlines; Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â notification of Acceptance 24 May 2020; Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â submission deadline for camera ready paper and registration 15 June 2020. In last days the submission flow increased a lot, this means that in all cases the proceedings (Springer LNCS) will be published. Due to the deadline extension, the volumes will be published after the conference. I hope that in the summer, with the hot temperatures of Sardinia, the situation will be solved, but in next weeks we will continue to analyse the evolution of the situation and we will inform you. Best regards, Massimiliano Petri and Antonio Pratelli

CFP: Special Issue "Deep Learning for the Internet of Things" with MDPI Electronics
by Computational Science Mailing List 24 Mar '20

24 Mar '20

[Apologies for Duplicate Emails] Please consider submitting your manuscripts to the special issue on "Deep Learning for the Internet of Things" with MDPI Electronics The Special Issue Theme: The recent advancements in artificial intelligence; machine learning; and, more importantly, deep learning, with its many variations of algorithms and platforms, have radically transformed conventional software applications into a set of smart and connected components with the capability of data-driven decision-making; intelligent data sensing and filtering; proactive and collaborative integration of software and hardware devices; and, more importantly, the ability to capture tons of useful interaction data. Machine and deep learning-based components are becoming the backbone of modern systems such as cyber-physical systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT), where intelligent integrations and collaborations of smart devices along with their outstanding data collection capabilities make them a perfect application domain for such sophisticated learning algorithms. The beauty of smart and connected devices governed by software utilities has already been demonstrated in several application domains such as healthcare, agriculture and farming, manufacturing, smart buildings, transportation, energy, and environmental surveillance monitoring systems. While these IoT-based systems can capture a good amount of data, the usage of these valuable and hard-to-produce data are not being fully utilized. Deep learning enables one to explore these data in further detail and capturing the hidden relationships that may exist among their key factors and parameters, thus providing further insight into the underlying application domains. Furthermore, deep learning algorithms are also capable of addressing challenging problems that are natural in IoT but remain unsolved in systems such as real time optimization problems, modeling non-linear characteristics of IoT devices and components, and several instances of prediction and classification problems. This Special Issue aims to foster deep learning-based modeling, solutions, and approaches to problems in Internet of Things systems. It seeks to explore deep learning algorithms, including generative adversarial models, attention-based networks, deep reinforcement learning, and recurrent deep neural networks, in capturing features and modeling the behavior of the involved software and hardware components. Topics of Interest: Academic researchers and industrial practitioners are invited to contribute their valuable research and experiences to state-of-the-art of deep learning-based approaches to modeling Internet of Things and associated problems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following applications of deep learning techniques to - Modeling IoT systems using deep learning; - Generative adversarial networks (GANS) in IoT and CPS; - Long short-term memory (LSTM) modeling of IoT time series data; - Attention-based approaches to capture significant features in IoT; - Deep learning-based modeling and experience in IoT-based applications such as smart building, healthcare, agriculture, manufacturing, left-driving cars, and cyber security; - Deep reinforcement learning for modeling decision making and uncertainty in IoT.

CFP: Resilience@Euro-Par 2020 - Papers due May 8
by Computational Science Mailing List 19 Mar '20

19 Mar '20

We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this call for papers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13th Workshop on Resiliency in High Performance Computing (Resilience) in Clusters, Clouds, and Grids <https://www.csm.ornl.gov/srt/conferences/Resilience/2020> in conjunction with the 26th International European Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing (Euro-Par), Warsaw, Poland August 24 - 28, 2020 <http://2020.euro-par.org> Overview: Resilience is a critical challenge as high performance computing (HPC) systems continue to increase component counts, individual component reliability decreases (such as due to shrinking process technology and near-threshold voltage (NTV) operation), hardware complexity increases (such as due to heterogeneous computing) and software complexity increases (such as due to complex data- and workflows, real-time requirements and integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies with traditional applications). Correctness and execution efficiency, in spite of faults, errors, and failures, is essential to ensure the success of the HPC systems, cluster computing environments, Grid computing infrastructures, and Cloud computing services. The impact of faults, errors, and failures in such HPC systems can range from financial losses due to system downtime (sometimes several tens-of-thousands of Dollars per lost system-hour), to financial losses due to unnecessary overprovision (acquisition and operating costs), to financial losses and legal liabilities due to erroneous or delayed output. The emergence of AI technology opens up new possibilities, but also new problems. Using AI technology for operational intelligence that enables resilience in HPC systems and centers is a complex control problem, while designing resilient AI technology for HPC applications is a difficult algorithmic problem. Resilience for HPC systems encompasses a wide spectrum of fundamental and applied research and development, including theoretical foundations, error/failure and anomaly detection, monitoring and control, end-to-end data integrity, enabling infrastructure, and resilient algorithms. This workshop brings together experts in the community to further research and development in HPC resilience and to facilitate exchanges across the computational paradigms of extreme-scale HPC, cluster computing, Grid computing, and Cloud computing.

K. Clifford’s geometric algebras (GA), quaternions and octonions in solving computer graphics and vision problems. In the meantime, the geometric algebra community focused on GA applications and greatly advanced it as an adequate and viable computing technology. The Workshops at CGI’2016 on “Geometric Algebra in Computer Science and Engineering” and at CGI’2017, 2018, 2019 on “Empowering Novel Geometric Algebra for Graphics & Engineering” began to bridge that gap. Under the auspices of *CGI’20 (22-25 June), ENGAGE (Empowering Novel Geometric Algebra for Graphics & Engineering) on June 23rd in Geneva, Switzerland*, will again engage in a multi-disciplinary approach from mathematics, applied to computer graphics, computer vision and general computer science fields where GA has strong potential to answer existing mathematical problems. GA is in a particularly well suited to allow cross-disciplinary solutions in software engineering as it provides an intuitive and insightful common denominator across mathematical disciplines that have often advanced application specific. Understanding GA enables us to relate distinct, seemingly incompatible paths by providing a common mathematical base. We invite original contributors in the form of full and short papers, which advance the state-of-the-art of the application of geometric algebra as well as of its computing technology in topics related, *topics related, but not limited to:* * Feature Detection & Data Analysis * LIDAR and Point Cloud Algorithms * Scientific & Information Visualization * Computer graphics rendering * Computer animation and video processing * Holographic optics & Holographic maps * Geographic Information Systems * Soundscape & Electromagnetic landscape Modelling * Augmented and Virtual Reality * Application of Clifford Fourier transforms and Clifford wavelets to 2D and 3D images, including color images * Higher dimensional geometric algebras * GA Computing and Quantum Computing * GA hardware implementations * GA for Artificial Intelligence * GA for ubiquitous information processing * GA for Big Data processing & visualization * Other engineering/applied science applications using GA, like robotics applications, graph computing etc. Authors should submit short and full papers directly to the CGI conference LNCS proceedings, by April 7th deadline. All authors of accepted ENGAGE related papers will be invited either to an oral or poster presentation. For Springer LNCS CGI proceedings author instructions please refer to http://www.cgs-network.org/cgi20/?page_id=1359. Post workshop extended and more advanced ENGAGE papers (15 pages plus) can be published in the topical collection “Geometric Algebra for Computing, Graphics and Engineering” of the Journal Advances in Applied Clifford Algebras (AACA), published by Birkhauser, and should have been orally presented at the conference. See the “Instruction for Authors” at AACA. Online paper submission at https://www.editorialmanager.com/aaca/Default.aspx has deadline of October 31, 2020.
