Special Session on High Performance Computing and Modeling & Simulation Education (HPC-Ed 2019)
CALL FOR PAPERS & PARTICIPATION As part of The 17th International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation (HPCS 2019) http://hpcs2019.cisedu.info/%C2%A0 or http://conf.cisedu.info/rp/hpcs19
PURPOSE AND SCOPE The fields of High Performance Computing, Cloud Computing, Distributed Systems, Big Data and Analytics, Computational Sciences, IoT, Artificial Intelligence, and several other related subjects are essential for newly developed technologies and discoveries. They are increasingly needed in many domains and daily life applications. Consequently, these systems and their applications will require a well trained workforce which can exploit the newly available capabilities and push forward to more innovations and breakthroughs.
Preparing and training the new workforce for these technologies will require the development of well-thought out curriculum, pedagogical tools and platforms, programming languages and models, as well as laboratories and project oriented expertise.
This track on High Performance Computing and Modeling & Simulation Education is meant to provide a forum and an opportunity for our communities in the subject matters to present, exchange and collaborate on the educational aspects and pedagogical developments of HPC related topics and their applications.
The HPC-Ed topics include (but are not limited to) the following: -Undergraduate and graduate Curriculum development for HPC, Parallel processing, Cloud Computing, sustainable and energy-aware HPC systems, and Distributed Computing systems -Undergraduate and graduate Curriculum development for modeling and simulation using HPC and Distributed computing systems -Experiences and lessons learned from existing programs and courseware -Novel practices for course work development and delivery -Assisting Tools and platforms for learning and education -Interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary curricula and programs -Languages, programming environments and Operating Systems education -Project based Learning -Design of laboratories and learning experiments -Program Assessment and Evaluation -Application domains (Big data, IoT, AI, Computational Sciences, Fog & Edge Computing, Mobile Computing, etc.) -Non-traditional learning and education
PROCEEDINGS The proceedings is projected to be included in the IEEE or ACM Digital Library and indexed in all major indexing services accordingly.
SPECIAL ISSUE Plans are underway to have the best papers, in extended version, selected for possible publication in a reputable journal as special issue. Detailed information will soon be announced and will be made available on the conference website.
