The goal of DCPerf is to promote a community-wide discussion to identify suitable strategies to enable effective and scalable performance optimization. Submissions on any topics of datacenter, cloud and bigdata performance are welcome. Submission site will remain open until Jan. 8th, 2020. Cloud data centers are the backbone infrastructure for tomorrow's information technology. Their advantages are efficient resource provisioning and low operational costs for supporting a wide range of computing needs, be it in business, scientific or mobile/pervasive environments. Because of the rapid growth in user-defined and user-generated applications and content, the range of services provided at data centers will expand tremendously and unpredictably. Particularly, big data applications and services, e.g., social and environmental sensing, and IoT monitoring, present a unique class of challenges in the Cloud. In addition, the high volume of mixed workloads and the diversity of services offered render the performance optimization of data centers even more challenging. Moreover, important optimization criteria, such as scalability, reliability, manageability, power efficiency, area density, and operating costs, are often conflicting. The increasing mobility of users across geographically distributed areas adds another dimension to optimizing big data and cloud applications. The goal of this workshop is to promote a community-wide discussion to identify suitable strategies to enable effective and scalable performance optimizations.

Call for Chapters
by Ivan Mistrik 18 Jan '20

18 Jan '20

*** Call for Chapters *** We invite high-quality chapters for an edited book on KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT IN DEVELOPMENT OF DATA-INTENSIVE SOFTWARE SYSTEMS A book to be published by CRC Press/Taylor & Francis Group and edited by: - Ivan Mistrik, Computer Scientist & Software Researcher, Heidelberg, Germany - Matthias Galster, Senior Lecturer in Software Engineering at University of Canterbury, New Zealand - Bruce Maxim, Full Professor of Computer and Information Science at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, USA - Bedir Tekinerdogan, Full professor and chair of the Information Technology group at Wageningen University in The Netherlands OVERVIEW ------------------ Big data is characterized by the seven V’s: volume (large amounts of data), velocity (continuously processed data in real time), variety (unstructured, semi-structured or structured data in different formats and from multiple and diverse sources), veracity (uncertainty and trustworthiness of data), validity (relevance of data to the problem to solve), volatility (constant change of input data), and value (how data and its analysis adds value). Big data systems are software applications that process and potentially generate big data. Such applications receive and process data from various diverse (usually distributed) sources, such as sensors, devices, whole networks, social networks, mobile devices or devices in an Internet-of-Things. They process high workloads of data and handle high requests for data. The idea is to use large amounts of data strategically and efficiently to provide additional intelligence. This book will explore software engineering of big data systems, including topics related to requirements as well as architecture, detailed design, implementation, maintenance and operations. Software engineering is the application of a systematic approach to designing, operating and maintaining software systems and the study of all the activities involved in achieving the same. The software engineering discipline and research into software systems flourished with the advent of computers and the technological revolution ushered in by the World Wide Web and the Internet. Software systems have grown dramatically to the point of becoming ubiquitous. They have a significant impact on the global economy and on how we interact and communicate with each other and with computers using software in our daily lives. However, there have been major changes in the type of software systems developed over the years. In the past decade owing to breakthrough advancements in cloud and mobile computing technologies, unprecedented volumes of hitherto inaccessible data, referred to as big data, has become available to technology companies and business organizations farsighted and discerning enough to use it to create new products, and services generating astounding profits. This book will focus on several research challenges of software engineering for developing big data systems, in particular by: - surveying the existing software engineering literature on applying software engineering principles into developing and supporting big data systems - identifying the fields of application for big data software systems - investigating the software engineering knowledge areas that have seen research related to big data systems - revealing the gaps in the knowledge areas that require more focus for big data systems development - determining the open research challenges in each software engineering knowledge area that need to be met. BACKGROUND TOPICS All chapters should consider the practical application of the topic through case studies, experiments, empirical validation, or systematic comparisons with other data systems, as well as allow further approaches already in practice. The book intends to discuss systematic and disciplined approaches to building big data systems, dissemination of the state-of-the-art methods and techniques for representing and evaluating these systems. FORMAT ------------------ Chapters are invited that synthesize existing knowledge on relevant background topics and application areas in software engineering of big systems. Chapters should be accessible to senior undergraduate students and graduate students with a background in Computer Science, Information Science, Software Engineering, Software Architecture, Systems Engineering, Requirements Engineering, Software Design or related disciplines. Chapters are not expected to correspond to the description of a single research project or technique. Each chapter should clearly highlight three to five take-away messages or key lessons at the beginning of the chapter. PROCEDURE ------------------ Please submit your chapter in PDF format to: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=kmddis2019 Chapters will be peer-reviewed by 3 reviewers. The authors participating in this publishing project will also be asked to review chapters by other contributors. We recommend using Word from very beginning, since the sources for the final manuscript are required to be in Word. Please refer to Publisher’s Guideline for Authors at https://www.crcpress.com/assets/images/crc/T%26F%20Text%20Preparation%20Ins… You are expected to collaborate on final editing of your chapter by Publisher’s editorial project manager. IMPORTANT DATES ------------------ Letter of Intent to editors (a tentative title, authors, a short abstract): December 2019: (as early as convenient) Chapters due: 30 January 2020 (extended until 28 February 2020) First round of reviews: 1 February 2020 – 30 April 2020 Revisions: 1 May 2020 -30July 2020 Second round of reviews: 1 August 2020 -30 August 2020 Final version due: 30 November 2020 Complete manuscript due: 30 February 2021 Expected publication: Spring 2021 For further details please contact editors at kmddis2019(a)easychair.org

Paper Deadline Approaching: PDSEC-20 Workshop (with IPDPS-20)
by Shontz, Suzanne Michelle 18 Jan '20

18 Jan '20

Dear All: The deadline is approaching for papers to be submitted to the 21st IEEE International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Scientific and Engineering Computing (PDSEC-20). See http://cse.stfx.ca/~pdsec20/ . It will be held on May 22, 2020 in New Orleans in conjunction with IPDPS 2020. Deadline: PDSEC-20 deadline: 31 Jan 2020 (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 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.
