(apologies for cross-postings)
The 19th IEEE International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed
Scientific and Engineering Computing (PDSEC-18) http://cse.stfx.ca/~pdsec18
will be held on May 25, 2018 in Vancouver in conjunction with IPDPS 2018.
Deadline:
PDSEC-18 extended deadline: 02 Feb 2018 (AoE)
Scope and Interests:
The technological trends of HPC system evolution indicates
increasing burden for application developers in management of the
unprecedented levels of complexity in hardware and the associated
performance characteristics. Many existing application codes are
unlikely to perform well on future systems without major
modifications or even complete rewrites. It will be important to
utilize, in unison, 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 HPC
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
application community still needs to identify the benefit through
practical evaluations.
Thus, the focus of this workshop is on methodologies and experiences
of scientific and engineering applications and algorithms to achieve
sustainable code development for better productivity, application
performance and reliability.

design. An impediment to success is that materials experts may not be
experts in data science, and data scientists typically lack the
domain-specific expertise in materials engineering. It is the goal of this
3-day “hackathon” to partner materials and data scientists within
interdisciplinary teams to spark collaborative research partnerships.
Materials researchers will develop fluency in statistical and machine
learning techniques, and data scientists will be exposed to data-centric
problems in materials engineering. Full financial support is available to

Betreff: [computational.science] CFP: Special Issue on Axiomatic
Thinking for Information Retrieval -- Information Retrieval Journal
Datum: Thu, 11 Jan 2018 11:12:08 +0100
Von: Stefano Mizzaro <mizzaro(a)uniud.it>

Call for Papers
Special Issue on Axiomatic Thinking for Information Retrieval
Information Retrieval Journal, Springer
https://goo.gl/dWvMJb
Recent growth of work on applying axiomatic thinking to analyze and
improve both retrieval models and evaluation metrics has clearly
demonstrated many advantages of axiomatic thinking, including
particularly specific theoretical results in the form of novel
constraints to be satisfied by retrieval functions or evaluation metrics
and improved models or evaluation metrics. This body of existing work
opens up many promising new research directions, especially in applying
axiomatic thinking more broadly to many problems in information retrieval.
Since there is not yet a single source for researchers to use for
understanding the state of the art of research in axiomatic thinking for
information retrieval, a main goal of this special issue is to fill in
this gap through accepting a set of representative papers that apply
axiomatic thinking to various tasks in information retrieval and related
application areas. In particular, we especially welcome submissions that
(1) develop a general axiomatic framework to IR related tasks; (2) study
how to apply axiomatic thinking to a specific task; (3) combine
axiomatic thinking with other methodology such as learning-to- rank; and
(4) discuss the past and future of the axiomatic thinking (i.e.,
position papers).
* TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to applying axiomatic
thinking to:
- Retrieval models
- Evaluation
- Domain specific IR
- Text categorization
- Text clustering
- Natural language processing
- Machine learning
- Human computer interaction

The Second International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM 2018)
http://sara.unisalento.it/~cafaro/WPDM2018/
CALL FOR PAPERS
As part of The 18th International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA 2018), http://www.iccsa.org
July 2 - 5 2018, Melbourne, Australia
Submission Deadline: January 28, 2018
SPECIAL ISSUE
Selected extended versions of workshop papers will be invited to a Special Issue to appear in the Algorithms journal (see http://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/Parallel_Distributed_…)
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
The Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining is an international forum which brings together researchers and practitioners working on different high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms, enabling novel applications. Data mining techniques and algorithms to process huge amount of data in order to extract useful and interesting information have become popular in many different contexts. Algorithms are required to make sense of data automatically and in efficient ways. Nonetheless, even though sequential computer systems performance is improving, they are not suitable to keep up with the increase in the demand for data mining applications and the data size. Moreover, the main memory of sequential systems may not be enough to hold all the data related to current applications. Therefore, there is an increasing interest in the design and implementation of parallel data mining algorithms. On parallel computers, by exploiting the vast aggregate main memory and processing power of processors and accelerators, parallel algorithms can easily address both the running time and memory requirement issues. Anyway, parallelizing existing algorithms in order to achieve good performance and scalability with regard to massive datasets is not trivial. Indeed, it is of paramount importance a good data organization and decomposition strategy in order to balance the workload while minimizing data dependences. Another concern is related to minimizing synchronization and communication overhead. Finally, I/O costs should be minimized as well. The Workshop will allow exchanging ideas and results related to on-going research, focusing on high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms and applications. Creating breakthrough parallel algorithms for high-performance data mining applications requires addressing several key computing problems which may lead to novel solutions and new insights in interdisciplinary applications. The focus of the workshop is on all forms of advances in high-performance data mining algorithms and applications, and related topics.
The WPDM Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Parallel data mining algorithms using MPI and/or OpenMP
- Parallel data mining algorithms targeting GPUs and many-cores accelerators
- Parallel data mining applications exploiting FPGA
- Distributed data mining algorithms
- Benchmarking and performance studies of high-performance data mining applications
- Novel programming paradigms to support high-performance computing for data mining
- Performance models for high-performance data mining applications and middleware
- Programming models, tools, and environments for high-performance computing in data mining
- Caching, streaming, pipelining, and other optimization techniques for data management in high-performance computing for data mining

Business Process Modeling, Development, and Support the 19th edition of the
BPMDS series, in conjunction with CAiSE’18
BPMDS’18 Working Conference
11-12 June 2018, Tallinn, Estonia
http://www.bpmds.org
Sponsored by IFIP WG8.1 (International Federation for Information Processing
Working Group 8.1)
BPMDS solicits papers related to Business Process Modeling, Development and
Support (BPMDS) using quality, relevance, originality and applicability as
main selection criteria. As a working conference, BPMDS’18 seeks to attract
full research papers describing mature research, experience reports related to
using BPMDS in practice, and visionary idea papers. Practitioners are also
encouraged to present lessons learned from practice. Papers submitted in the
category idea papers will be required to be of relevance to the focus theme.
The focus theme for BPMDS'18 idea papers is:
Ecosystem-aware Business Process Modeling, Development and Support
Today, successful business process modeling, development and support have to
be aware of their ecosystem context. Business process modeling has to capture
as many external contributions as possible, to integrate all stakeholders and
to identify best practice knowledge. Coupling business process modeling with
social software helps to capture these contributions. Business models such as
multi-sided platforms are based on processes spanning over multiple
organizations. The design of business processes integrates external resources
as part of virtual organizations and outsourcing relationships. Decisions in
business processes are based on advanced analytics and artificial intelligence
using a multitude of data sources that are increasingly coming from outside of
organizations. Also, the support of business processes is using external
resources increasingly. Technologies such as blockchains externalize the
business process support more and more.
Submissions
Prospective conference participants are invited to submit a paper that
concerns business process modeling and development, and / or business process
support (development of software dedicated to business processes). We solicit
research papers, experience reports, and lessons learned from practice that
contain results worth of discussion. Full research papers should report
research in an advanced stage, including results and at least partial
evaluation. Thus four categories of submissions are welcome:
(1) Full research papers (could be technical papers or empirical evaluation
papers).
(2) Experience reports should follow guidelines in
http://www.bpmds.org/guidelines.
(3) Idea papers related to the focus theme “Open Business Process Modeling,
Development and Support” should address completely new research positions or
approaches. They should describe precisely the situation and demonstrate the
shortcomings of current methods, tools, ways of reasoning, meta-models, etc.
(4) Lessons learned from practice. We welcome all practitioners to share with
BPMDS participants and followers their own experience in the topics (see
below) related to the BPMDS conference. This category of short papers with up
to 8 pages follow the guidelines suggested for the category (2).
Conformity with LNCS guidelines is not mandatory for this category. The
accepted propositions will be presented during the BPMDS’18 industrial track
and will be published on the BPMDS web site.
Papers of the first three submission types should be of up to 15 pages. Please
follow the LNCS format instructions at
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for all of them.
Papers should be submitted in Adobe PDF format. The results described must be
unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Please submit through the
conference management system available at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpmds18

About BPMDS
The topics addressed by the BPMDS series are focused on business processes and
their IT support. This is one of the keystones of information systems theory
beyond short-lived fashions. The continued interest in this topic on behalf of
the IS community is reflected by the success of the past BPMDS events, and
their promotion from a workshop to a working conference. The BPMDS series has
produced eighteen events from 1998 to 2017. From 2011, BPMDS has become a two-
day working conference attached to CAiSE (Conference on Advanced Information
Systems Engineering). The basic principles of the BPMDS series are:
1. BPMDS serves as a meeting place for researchers and practitioners in the
areas of business development, and business applications (software)
development.
2. The aim of the event is mainly discussions, rather than presentations.
3. Each event has a theme that is mandatory for idea papers.
4. Each event's results are, usually, published in a special issue of an
international journal.
The goals, format, and history of BPMDS can be found on the web site:
http://www.bpmds.org/history
Publications
The conference proceedings will be published in a Springer LNBIP volume (joint
with EMMSAD), "Enterprise, Business-Process and Information Systems Modeling”,
as the nine previous years (LNBIP volumes 29, 50, 81, 113, 147, 175, 214, 248,
287). Contributing authors may find all relevant information at
http://www.springer.com/series/7911 .
After the BPMDS’18 conference, extended versions of the accepted papers will
be considered for publishing in a special issue of an international journal.
